| Core Tip |
Conventional coagulation tests do not predict bleeding or thrombosis risk in liver cirrhosis. Viscoelastic testing such as thromboelastography is a point of care test which can better predict clinically significant coagulopathy and the need for blood product transfusion compared to conventional coagulation tests. Randomized control trials have shown the clinical benefits of viscoelastic testing in liver cirrhosis in the perioperative setting and in those presenting acutely with bleeding. The primary aim of this systematic review is to verify the utility of viscoelastic testing guided transfusion in chronic liver disease patients presenting with bleeding or who require an invasive procedure. |
