Bijaya Kumar Behera, Jaison George
Abstract :
BACKGROUND
The present study was conducted to determine whether an association exists between mean platelet volume (MPV) and cardiac troponins in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).
METHODS
This hospital based cross–sectional study was conducted on 102 patients over a period of two years from August 2016 to August 2018 at MKCG Medical College Hospital, Berhampur, Odisha, India. Subjects were divided into 3 groups, myocardial infarction, unstable angina and controls. MPV was estimated. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS–25. p–value <0.05 was considered significant.
RESULTS
MPV was higher among the MI group (11.5±1.36) compared to the unstable angina (8.09±0.57) and control group (7.7±0.48).
CONCLUSIONS
MPV was significantly high in MI group compared to unstable angina (p=0.001) and control group( p=0.001), whereas the difference in mean MPV between the unstable angina group and controls was not statistically significant.
