Thromboelastometry‐guided blood transfusion in septic shock complicated with disseminated intravascular coagulation: a case report

Clinical Case Reports, 2017
Key Clinical Message Approximately 25–50% of septic patients develop disseminated intravascular coagulation. The thromboelastometry evaluates whole blood clot formation and dissolution in real time and has been considered for management of bleeding in ...

De Novo Assessment and Review of Pan-American Pit Viper Anticoagulant and Procoagulant Venom Activities via Kinetomic Analyses

Toxins, 2019
Snakebite with hemotoxic venom continues to be a major source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Our laboratory has characterized the coagulopathy that occurs in vitro in human plasma via specialized thrombelastographic methods to determine if venoms ...

An assessment of green plasma: The in vitro hemostatic superiority of a currently discarded blood product

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Recent studies have linked trauma patient outcomes to the plasma donor's sex, with premenopausal females associated with improved survival and lower organ failure. Currently, green‐colored plasma (due to oral contraceptive use) is removed from the donor pool. We set out to evaluate the hemostatic potential of green plasma.

Platelet activation after presyncope by lower body negative pressure in humans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Central hypovolemia elevates hemostatic activity which is essential for preventing exsanguination after trauma, but platelet activation to central hypovolemia has not been described. We hypothesized that central hypovolemia induced by lower body negative

Clinical applicability of rapid thrombelastography and functional fibrinogen thrombelastography to adult liver transplantation [PDF]

Liver Transplantation, 2014
Unlike kaolin thrombelastography (k-TEG), the clinical utility of rapid thrombelastography (r-TEG) and functional fibrinogen thrombelastography (FF-TEG) has not been tested in liver transplantation (LT). These thrombelastography techniques were simultaneously performed at the time of the skin incision (the baseline) and 30 ...

Declaring futility after traumatic injury and the burden of failure on the surgeon

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract In this edition of the THOR supplement in Transfusion, there are two articles that deal with resuscitation futility and transfusion. In one article, Yazer et al. delve into the details of the studies outlined in this editorial and summarize the literature on the topic of transfusion and futility. The second article by Dr.

The impact of rapid infusers on the hemostatic potential of cryoprecipitate products

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In cases of massive transfusion, intravenous access can be limited. Additionally, delivering different products through separate lines and infusion methods adds unnecessary steps. RBC, plasma, and whole blood (WB) are delivered via rapid infusers; cryoprecipitate (CRYO) is infused through separate access and is not approved with ...

Prediction of Ischemic Events after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Thrombelastography Profiles and Factor XIIIa Activity

TH Open, 2018
Background High plasma fibrin clot strength (MA) measured by thrombelastography (TEG) is associated with increased risk of cardiac events after percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs).

Epsilon-aminocaproic acid for treatment of fibrinolysis during liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1987
In 97 adult patients receiving liver transplants, the coagulation system was monitored by thrombelastography and by coagulation profile including PT; a PTT; platelet count; level of factors I, II, V, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, and XII; fibrin degradation ...

Influence of hydroxyethyl starch (6% HES 130/0.4) administration on hematology and clinical chemistry parameters [PDF]

, 2008
Background: The chemical inertness of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) might cause interferences of the colloid with a variety of laboratory tests. We aimed to evaluate potential influences of HES 130/0.4, the newest HES type, on several common hematology and ...
