Brief Summary

In 2008 at the University Hospital Zurich (USZ) a massive transfusion protocol was introduced. Based on laboratory diagnostics and point of care (POC) devices including ROTEM.

Goal of this retrospective study is to evaluate the influence of this algorithm on coagulation, use of blood products, coagulation factors and ROTEM evolution.

Detailed Description

In 2008 at the USZ a massive transfusion protocol was introduced. Based on laboratory diagnostics and POC (point of care) devices including ROTEM.

Goal of this retrospective study is to evaluate the influence of this algorithm on coagulation, use of blood products, coagulation factors and ROTEM evolution over three years (2008-2010)

Conditions

Bleeding

Study Design

• Study Time Perspective: RETROSPECTIVE

Interventions

Rotational thromboelastometry

In bleeding patients point of care measurements are performed, in this case Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM) to guide the use of blood products and coagulation factors.

Intervention Type: DEVICE
