Diagnosis of severe congenital P2Y12 defects
Clinical hallmarks |
Lifelong history of mucocutaneous bleedings; excessive postsurgical or posttraumatic blood loss |
Laboratory hallmarks |
Screening test: inability of high concentrations of ADP (≥ 10μM) to induce full and reversible platelet aggregation (light transmission aggregometry) |
Confirmatory test: inability of ADP to inhibit PGE1-stimulated adenylyl cyclase (measurement of platelet cyclic AMP or phosphorylation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein) |
