Résumé

Cangrelor is an intravenous P2Y To describe the dosing, laboratory monitoring, and clinical outcomes of a series of patients who received cangrelor as a "bridging" antiplatelet agent. This study is a retrospective analysis of all patients within the study center with coronary stents who received cangrelor as a bridge to surgical procedure and had VerifyNow monitoring during treatment. A total of 11 patients were identified for inclusion. The median cangrelor dose was 0.5 µg/kg/min (interquartile range = 0.5-0.5) and was maintained in 7 of 11 patients. Doses ranged from 0.25 to 2 µg/kg/min during therapy, and 81.6% of VerifyNow results assessed were within goal range (⩽208 P2Y
