Rotational thrombolelastometry produces potentially clinical useful results within 10 min in bleeding emergency department patients: the DEUCE study.
2013
Objectives and background For the first time in the Emergency Department (ED), to assess the use of rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) in patients presenting with all-cause haemodynamic shock, specifically (a) to establish whether a 5min (A5) or a 10-min result (A10) is accurate compared with a final maximum clot firmness (MCF) result; (b) to compare time to A10 and formal laboratory coagulation result; (c) to assess whether bleeding ED trauma, gastrointestinal and aortic aneurysm patients are coagulopathic according to ROTEM; and (d) to compare ROTEM results with formal laboratory coagulation parameters.
