On for example optical densitometry, a first and second wave of platelet aggregation is seen, in this case for an ADP-initiated aggregation.[1]

In a platelet aggregation study, the aggregation process is started by different agonists (ADP, epinephrine etc.) and the aggregation pattern can usually conform into any of the following patterns:

Platelet aggregation function by disorders and agonists
ADP Epinephrine Collagen Ristocetin
P2Y receptor defect[2] (including Clopidogrel) Decreased Normal Normal Normal
Adrenergic receptor defect[2] Normal Decreased Normal Normal
Collagen receptor defect[2] Normal Normal Decreased or absent Normal
  • Von Willebrand disease[3]
  • Bernard–Soulier syndrome[2]
Normal Normal Normal Decreased or absent
  • Glanzmann's thrombasthenia[2]
  • Afibrinogenemia
Decreased Decreased Decreased Normal or decreased
Storage pool deficiency[3] Absent second wave Partial
Aspirin or aspirin-like disorder Absent second wave Absent Normal
