Testing for Whole Blood Platelet Aggregation and Release Reactions in Uremic Patients

Luciano David

Platelet dysfunction is a common complication in uremic patients, contributing to an increased risk of bleeding and thrombotic events. Whole blood platelet aggregation and release reactions play a crucial role in hemostasis, and their dysregulation can have significant clinical implications. This article provides an overview of the importance of testing for platelet aggregation and release reactions in uremic patients. We discuss the underlying mechanisms of platelet function, the impact of uremia on platelet behavior, and the clinical relevance of these tests in guiding treatment strategies. By understanding the intricate interplay between platelets and uremia, healthcare professionals can optimize patient management and improve outcomes.
