On-pump cardiac surgery may trigger inflammation and accelerate platelet cyclooxygenase-1 renewal, thereby modifying low-dose aspirin pharmacodynamics. Thirty-seven patients on standard aspirin 100 mg once-daily were studied before surgery and randomized within 36 hours postsurgery to 100 mg once-daily, 100 mg twice-daily, or 200 mg once-daily for 90 days. On day 7 postsurgery, immature and mature platelets, platelet mass, thrombopoietin, glycocalicin, leukocytes, C-reactive protein, and interleukin-6 significantly increased. Interleukin-6 significantly correlated with immature platelets. At day 7, patients randomized to 100 mg once-daily showed a significant increase in serum thromboxane (TX)B2within the 24-hour dosing interval and urinary TXA2metabolite (TXM) excretion. Aspirin 100 mg twice-daily lowered serum TXB2and prevented postsurgery TXM increase (P < 0.01), without affecting prostacyclin metabolite excretion. After cardiac surgery, shortening the dosing interval, but not doubling the once-daily dose, rescues the impaired antiplatelet effect of low-dose aspirin and prevents platelet activation associated with acute inflammation and enhanced platelet turnover.

Abstract
On-pump cardiac surgery may trigger inflammation and accelerate platelet cyclooxygenase-1 renewal, thereby modifying low-dose aspirin pharmacodynamics. Thirty-seven patients on standard aspirin 100 mg once-daily were studied before surgery and randomized within 36 hours postsurgery to 100 mg once-daily, 100 mg twice-daily, or 200 mg once-daily for 90 days. On day 7 postsurgery, immature and mature platelets, platelet mass, thrombopoietin, glycocalicin, leukocytes, C-reactive protein, and interleukin-6 significantly increased. Interleukin-6 significantly correlated with immature platelets. At day 7, patients randomized to 100 mg once-daily showed a significant increase in serum thromboxane (TX)B2within the 24-hour dosing interval and urinary TXA2metabolite (TXM) excretion. Aspirin 100 mg twice-daily lowered serum TXB2and prevented postsurgery TXM increase (P < 0.01), without affecting prostacyclin metabolite excretion. After cardiac surgery, shortening the dosing interval, but not doubling the once-daily dose, rescues the impaired antiplatelet effect of low-dose aspirin and prevents platelet activation associated with acute inflammation and enhanced platelet turnover.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
