Thromboelastography - an instrument for the researcher or clinician?

Publication at Second Faculty of Medicine |
1998

Abstract

Thromboelastography is a method which is used experimentally since 1948. Since the end of the eighties it is experiencing a certain revival also in clinical medicine.

The submitted case-record presents this technique as a very useful aid in the differential diagnosis of postoperative haemorrhagic conditions in cardiosurgery. Its application can facilitate aimed treatment of some typical disorders of haemocoagulation.
