The Impact of Patient Characteristics and Antiplatelet Regimes on Clot Microstructure in Patients Treated for ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Clot Microstructure can Evaluate Therapeutic Efficacy

Background Unfavourable clot microstructure is associated with adverse outcomes in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We investigated the effect of comorbidities and anti-platelet treatment on clot microstructure in STEMI patients using fractal dimension (d f ), a novel biomarker of clot mi...
