The coagulation changes associated with acute variceal bleeding in patients with HCV-induced cirrhosis as assessed by rotational thromboelastometry

The coagulation changes associated with acute variceal bleeding in patients with HCV-induced cirrhosis as assessed by rotational thromboelastometry

Abstract Background and objectives Alterations of hemostasis in patients with decompensated cirrhosis are complex. Accordingly, standard coagulation tests are not feasible to evaluate bleeding risk in these patients. The aim of this study was to assess the coagulation kinetics in cirrhotic patients...
