Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) Incidence of antiplatelet drugs resistance at 14-28 day treatment period in the 2 groups. Antiplatelet drugs resistance is defined as platelet reactivity index (PRI)>=50% assessed by VASP phosphoprotein analysis. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) Incidence of antiplatelet drugs resistance at 14-28 day treatment period in the 2 groups. Antiplatelet drugs resistance is defined as P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) >=235 assessed by VerifyNow P2Y12 assay. 2) Frequency of 1-year adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, target vessel revascularization, non-target vessel revascularization, and ischemic stroke). Myocardial infarction is defined as universal definition in 2007, stent thrombosis is defined as ARC definition(definite, probable, possible), and major bleeding is defined as REPLACE-2 criteria. 3) Frequency of 30-day symptom of upper gastrointestinal damage such as epigastric pain, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, hematemesis, or bloody stool (tarry stool) | — |
