Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of thromboelastometry (ROTEM®) with standard plasmatic coagulation testing in paediatric surgery

TL;DR: Recommendation thresholds for PT and aPTT might overestimate the need for coagulation therapy, and a good correlation was found between the fibrinogen level and the FibTEM assay.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemostatic changes after crystalloid or colloid fluid administration during major orthopedic surgery: the role of fibrinogen administration.

TL;DR: Disturbance of fibrinogen/fibrin polymerization is the primary problem triggering dilutional coagulopathy during major orthopedic surgery, and these undesirable effects of intravascular volume therapy can be reversed by increasing fibrInogen concentration by administering fibr inogen concentrate, even during continuing blood loss and intrav vascular volume replacement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of fibrinogen on reversal of dilutional coagulopathy: a porcine model

TL;DR: Replacing 65% of the estimated blood volume with gelatin in swine resulted in dilutional coagulopathy; subsequent fibrinogen administration improved clot formation and reduced blood loss significantly.
