The availability of direct oral anticoagulants has caused a paradigm shift in thrombosis management. The direct thrombin inhibitor dabigatran seems to obstruct tenase complex by inhibiting thrombin generated in the initial phase and feed back to the amplification phase of cell-based coagulation reactions. However, it is still not fully understood if and how dabigatran impact platelet function. This observational study aimed to assess in vitro platelet function in patients with atrial fibrillation receiving dabigatran. Platelet aggregability was tested with platelet-rich plasma using platelet aggregometry (PACKS-4 aggregometer). Blood samples were stimulated with thrombin receptor agonist peptide (TRAP; 32 μmol/L).
