Patients with cirrhosis often have abnormal hemostasis, with increased risk of hemorrhage
and thrombosis. Thromboelastography provides a rapid assessment of the coagulation …

The concentration of the majority of hemostatic proteins differs considerably in early life,
especially in neonates compared to adulthood. Knowledge of the concept of developmental …

Transfusion of blood products in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) significantly increases
post-transplant morbidity and mortality and is associated with reduced graft survival. Based …

Background Cirrhosis causes significant coagulopathy. Traditional coagulation tests may not
accurately measure coagulopathy in well-compensated patients with cirrhosis. Viscoelastic …

Background Studies indicate a link between allogeneic blood transfusion and venous
thromboembolism (VTE) post‐major surgery. Analyzing trends and predictors of these …

Purpose There is a growing body of evidence for a prothrombotic tendency in patients with
primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). The aim of the study was to evaluate coagulation disorders …

Background Thromboelastometry is considered the best method to assesses hemostasis in
liver disease. Diagnostic performance could be improved by adding protein C activators …

Background Routine chemical venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis for liver surgery
remains controversial, and often delayed post-operatively due to perceived bleeding risk …

In the age of rising health care costs, an aging population, and a greater burden of serious
and complex disease, we have seen increased scrutiny around the risks and benefits of care …
