<qa>  What was the standard value of the multiplate analyzer?All consecutive patients under chronic ASA treatment 100mgd seen at our outpatient clinic were systematically included in the registry. All patients were on acetylsalicylic acid for CAD for at least 1 month. Patients were informed of ASA testing at start of consultation in the outpatient clinic. Eligible patients provided written informed consent. Peripheral venous blood samples were analyzed using the whole blood impedance platelet aggregometry Multiplate analyzer. The Multiplate analyzer device allows to measure platelet aggregation by the attachment of platelets to two silver coated copper electrodes leading to a rise of electrical resistance in the sample. The measurements are expressed as arbitrary aggregation units AU and the manufacturers defined cutoffs were used: normal values were 76-136 AU, partial antiaggregation was defined as ASA values between 31 and 75 AU and complete antiaggregation was defined as ASA values 31 AU.
