The Need for Red Cell Support During Non-Cardiac Surgery Is Associated to Pre-Transfusion Levels of FXIII and the Platelet Count

The Need for Red Cell Support During Non-Cardiac Surgery Is Associated to Pre-Transfusion Levels of FXIII and the Platelet Count

Unexpected intraoperative bleeding is associated with a reduced availability of crosslinking capacity (provided through factor XIII (FXIII)) per unit of generated thrombin. Furthermore, FXIII deficiency and thrombocytopenia (but not fibrinogen deficiency) are the most prevalent modulators of clot fi...
