It must be remembered that clinically important haemostasis occurs in vivo and not in a tube,
and that variables such as the number of bleeding events and bleeding volume are more …

Introduction Hypothermia has notable effects on platelets, platelet function, fibrinogen, and
coagulation factors. Common laboratory techniques cannot identify those effects, because …

Accidental hypothermia, defined as an unintentional drop of the body core temperature
below 35° C, is one of the causes of cardiocirculatory instability and reversible cardiac …

Introduction: This experimental in vitro study aimed to identify and characterize hypothermia-
associated coagulopathy and to compare changes in mild to severe hypothermia with the …

Alterations in platelet function are a common finding in surgical procedures involving
cardiopulmonary bypass and hypothermia. Although the combined impact of hypothermia …

Background Coagulation can be visualised using whole blood coagulation analyses such
as thromboelastometry and platelet aggregation tests; however, the role of temperature in …

Aim Therapeutic hypothermia improves neurological outcome in patients resuscitated after
out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The aim was to investigate whether therapeutic hypothermia …

Aim To investigate whether prolonged compared with standard duration of targeted
temperature management (TTM) compromises coagulation. Methods Comatose survivors …

Background: The use of mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) in patients after out-of-hospital
cardiac arrest (OHCA) who are undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention …

Background Previous viscoelastic haemostatic tests studies have often indicated a
hypercoagulative test signal with citrated blood, which could influence clinical decision …
