Prediction of bleeding by thromboelastography in ICU patients with haematological malignancy and severe sepsis

: ICU patients with haematological malignancy have an increased risk of bleeding. Recently, global haemostatic methods such as thromboelastography (TEG) have gained impact in evaluating coagulation. The aim of this study was to observe whether TEG could predict bleeding in haematological ICU patients with severe sepsis. Post-hoc single-centre analysis of patients with haematological malignancy included in the Scandinavian Starch for Severe...
