Table 3. Agreement between assays on the designation of poor responsiveness.

The agreement between assays and conditions for categorizing subjects as poor responders was assessed using the kappa statistic. Poor responders were defined as having baseline platelet function more than twice the standard error over mean response. PRU = P2Y12 reaction units, MPA = maximal platelet aggregation, and RPA = residual platelet aggregation.
