Özet

Background: Long-term moderate or strenuous physical activity is associated with a considerable reduction in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However acute exercise leads to a transient activation of the thrombotic system. Healthy individuals can react this by increasing their fibrinolytic capacity acutely. However, patients with ischemic heart disease, lacking fibrinolytic potential, may be at considerable risk for acute ischemic events if exposed to heavy physical exertion. Platelet size has been shown to reflect platelet activity. The mean platelet volume (MPV) can reflect changes in either the level of platelet stimulation or rate of platelet production.
