Critical Analysis of Thrombocytopenia Associated With Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors and Potential Role of Zalunfiban, a Novel Small Molecule Glycoprotein Inhibitor, in Understanding the Mechanism(s) [PDF]
Thrombocytopenia is a rare but serious complication of the intravenous glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa; integrin αIIbβ3) receptor inhibitors (GPIs), abciximab, eptifibatide, and tirofiban. The thrombocytopenia ranges from mild (50 000–100 000 platelets/

Abciximab-Associated Pseudothrombocytopenia [PDF]
A60-year-old woman was transferred for coronary angiography after a non–Q-wave myocardial infarction. She was treated with aspirin, metoprolol, unfractionated heparin, and abciximab administered as a weight-based bolus followed by infusion. A complete blood count in blood anticoagulated with EDTA (purple-top Vacutainer) was obtained shortly after her ...

Effects of abciximab on key pattern of human coronary restenosis in vitro: impact of the SI/MPL-ratio [PDF]
Background The significant reduction of angiographic restenosis rates in the ISAR-SWEET study (intracoronary stenting and antithrombotic regimen: is abciximab a superior way to eliminate elevated thrombotic risk in diabetes) raises the question of ...

Early recovery of microvascular perfusion induced by t-PA in combination with abciximab or eptifibatide during postischemic reperfusion [PDF]
BACKGROUND: GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors abciximab and eptifibatide have been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation in ischemic heart disease. Our aim was to test the efficacy of abiciximab (Reo Pro) or eptifibatide (Integrilin) alone or in combination with ...

Abciximab-induced thrombocytopenia [PDF]
Sir, Abciximab is a potent platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonist, currently indicated as adjunctive therapy during percutaneous coronary intervention and acute coronary syndromes. Potential future indications include acute myocardial infarction, peripheral arterial disease and ischaemic stroke, thus more widespread use is likely in the ...
