Key Words Thromboelastography; Liver cirrhosis; Blood coagulation disorder; Liver transplantation; Reference values
Core Tip Thromboelastography provides a more com-prehensive coagulation assessment than routine tests in cirrhotic patients. We evaluated the baseline throm-boelastography (TEG) tracing and preoperative laboratory tests of cirrhotic patients undergoing liver transplant (LT) to generate a reliable picture of their coagulation profile. We also studied how TEG value distribution in cirrhotic patients could be modified by gender, age, model for end-stage liver disease score and liver disease characteristics. End-stage liver disease is associated with considerable changes in TEG variables, which should be allowed for when interpreting TEG traces in cirrhotic patients. TEG reference values derived from a healthy population could be misleading in the management of cirrhotic patients during LT.
