Brief Summary:
A prospective, randomized clinical trial comparing blood product use and bleeding events during and after endoscopic or neurosurgical procedures in patients with cirrhosis and coagulopathy: Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM) vs. conventional therapy (SCARLET).
Detailed Description:
Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) can be associated with significant bleeding requiring multiple blood product transfusions, especially in patients with severe liver dysfunction. Rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) is a point-of-care device that has been used successfully to monitor coagulation on whole blood samples during OLT. Whether it allows blood loss and transfusion to be reduced during OLT remains controversial. ROTEM or conventional coagulation tests were used in this study to guide transfusion of platelets, cryoprecipitate, and fresh frozen plasma (FFP) during OLT. Patient characteristics as well as pre- and post- transplant laboratory data were collected. Intra-operative blood loss, type and amount of blood products transfused, and cost were compared between the two groups.
