Summary
This study looks at using a rapid genetic test in the hospital to help doctors pick the most effective blood thinner for stroke patients. Some people have a gene variation that makes a common drug, clopidogrel, less effective. The test checks for these variations so doctors can prescribe a different medication if needed. Researchers will enroll 350 adults who have had a stroke or mini-stroke to see how well this testing works in practice.
