Goal-orientated Therapy of Perioperative Disturbance in Hemostasis in Cardiac Surgery
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Aim of this study is to investigate whether patients preoperatively treated with acetylsalicylic acid and/or clopidogrel have fewer perioperative bleeding and lower amounts of blood substitution when managed by ROTEM (whole blood coagulation analyzer) and MULTIPLATE (thrombocyte function analyzer).

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Point-of-Care managed This arm includes all patients in which the hemostatic therapy is guided by POC devices e.g. MULTIPLATE (a platelet function analyzer) or ROTEM (thromboelastometry) |
|
Conventional hemostasis lab managed This arm includes all patients in which the hemostatic therapy is guided by conventional hemostasis laboratory data e.g. INR, aPTT, fibrinogen concentration, platelet count but no POC devices e.g. MULTIPLATE (a platelet function analyzer) or ROTEM (thromboelastometry) |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Perioperative blood loss [24 hours]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- perioperative substitution with erythrocyte concentrates, thrombocyte concentrates or fresh frozen plasma [24 hours and 7 days]
