Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study the investigators will evaluate a new point of care Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer system to assess coagulation rapidly with ease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Unexpected bleeding continues to be an issue that confronts anesthesiologists. Obstetric bleeding spearheads as the leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity. One of the hurdles that clinicians confront is a lack of point of care coagulation system that can hasten the clinical management strategy in the right direction. Conventional methods take considerable time to obtain results. TEG and ROTEM are currently doing the job however these two modalities requires expertise and proficient training to perform test and interpret results. The level of expertise to run the TEG and ROTEM poses hurdles for providing coagulation around the clock as it requires trained operators. What is currently required for efficient and effective management of obstetric hemorrhage is a point of care coagulation system in the operating room and or labor and delivery suite that is user friendly, easy and quick to perform. In this study the investigators will evaluate a new point of care Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer system to assess coagulation rapidly with ease.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Pregnant Women

All subjects will have the same intervention. Samples will be taken and manipulated in the laboratory for use of the Hemosonic Qauntra Analyzer

Quantra Analyzer

Intervention Type DEVICE

Subject's blood samples will be manipulated in the lab and will be tested with the Quantra Analyzer. After obtaining blood from each patient, the blood was diluted to varying dilutions to obtain different fibrinogen concentrations. This way, 89 samples were prepared from the blood from 13 patients. Each sample was analyzed for fibrinogen concentration in the lab using conventional technology. Additionally each sample was used to measure Quantra variables such as clot stiffness (CS), and fibrinogen contribution to clot stiffness (FCS).
