Standard- vs high-dose clopidogrel based on platelet function testing after percutaneous coronary intervention: the GRAVITAS randomized trial.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the effect of high-dose compared with standard-dose clopidogrel in patients with high on-treatment platelet reactivity after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), but a treatment strategy for this issue was not well defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lower incidence of thrombus formation with cryoenergy versus radiofrequency catheter ablation.

TL;DR: RF energy is significantly more thrombogenic than cryoenergy, with a higher incidence of thrombus formation and largerThrombus volumes, likely reflecting intact tissue ultrastructure with endothelial cell preservation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Platelet reactivity and cardiovascular outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention: a time-dependent analysis of the Gauging Responsiveness with a VerifyNow P2Y12 assay: Impact on Thrombosis and Safety (GRAVITAS) trial.

TL;DR: In the GRAVITAS trial, achievement of on-clopidogrel reactivity <208 P2Y12 reaction units at 12 to 24 hours after percutaneous coronary intervention or during follow-up was associated with a lower risk for cardiovascular events.
