The clot thickens: How to use viscoelastic testing in critical illness

open access: yesJACCP: JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CLINICAL PHARMACY, Volume 6, Issue 8, Page 954-963, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Coagulopathy is common in critically ill patients and may result in complications such as bleeding or thromboembolic events. Viscoelastic testing (VET), including both thromboelastography (TEG®) and rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM®), offers a benefit over conventional coagulation tests in that it provides a qualitative and quantitative ...

A prospective non-inferiority trial of pathogen reduced platelets compared to non-pathogen reduced platelets for correction of viscoelastic platelet function testing in cardiac surgery. [PDF]

open access: yesTransfusion
Abstract Background Cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may alter platelet (PLT) function causing bleeding. The goal of this study is to evaluate the hemostatic effect of PRT‐PLTs compared to untreated PLTs stored in platelet additive solution (PAS) following transfusion in bleeding patients undergoing cardiac surgery on CPB.

Platelet Factor XIIIa Release During Platelet Aggregation and Plasma Clot Strength Measured by Thrombelastography in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease Treated with Clopidogrel. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
It has been estimated that up to half of circulating Factor XIIIa (FXIIIa) is stored in platelets. The release of FXIIIa from platelets upon stimulation with ADP in patients with coronary artery disease treated with dual antiplatelet therapy has not been

Risk factors for massive transfusion in obstetrical hemorrhage and consideration of a whole blood program

open access: yesTransfusion, Volume 63, Issue S3, Page S112-S119, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of obstetric complications. The goal of this study was to identify risk factors for obstetric (OB) massive transfusion (MT) and determine the feasibility of developing a low‐titer group O RhD‐positive whole blood (LTO + WB) protocol for OB hemorrhage.

Apolipoprotein A-I, elevated in trauma patients, inhibits platelet activation and decreases clot strength

open access: yesPlatelets, 2022
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is elevated in the plasma of a subgroup of trauma patients with systemic hyperfibrinolysis. We hypothesize that apoA-I inhibits platelet activation and clot formation.

Intraoperative blood transfusions in highly alloimmunized patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Intraoperative blood requirements were analyzed in patients undergoing primary orthotopic liver transplantation and divided into two groups on the basis of panel reactive antibody of pretransplant serum measured by lymphocytotoxicity testing.

Association of lipoprotein(a) with platelet aggregation and thrombogenicity in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesPlatelets, 2021
This study aimed to evaluate the association of lipoprotein(a) levels with platelet aggregation and thrombogenicity in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to investigate the ischemic outcome on this population. Lipoprotein(a)

Hypercoagulability as Measured by Thrombelastography May Be Associated with the Size of Acute Ischemic Infarct—A Pilot Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Background: Thromboelastography (TEG®) measures coagulation function in venous blood. Previous studies have reported that this device providing an integrated data on dynamics of clot formation may be useful for predicting clinical outcome in ischemic ...
