Abstract: PURPOSE: To apply a point-of-care (POC) assay to identify presence of the CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LoF) *2 allele in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to compare it to a laboratory-based assay. The laboratorybased assay selected uses a reverse hybridisation technique which is reported to be robust and accurate.
