  1. 1. The effect of prophylactic platelet transfusions on point-of-care coagulation parameters in conjunction to central venous catheter insertion—what effect do transfusions have and are they necessary?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Läkarutbildningen

    Nyckelord :Platelet; Platelet transfusion; Thromboelastography; Thromboelastometry; Platelet aggregometry; ROTEM; Multiplate; Central venous catheter; CVC; Thrombocytopenia; Coagulation; Thrombocyte; Platelet function; Cancer; Hematological malignancy; Leukemia; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Platelet transfusions are often used when thrombocytopenic patients are facing a central venous catheter (CVC) insertion, but their use has been up to debate. Point-of-care devices such as thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and platelet aggregometry (Multiplate) better reflect in vivo haemostasis than routine coagulation tests. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The effect of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) on different fibrinogen quantification methods in elective neurosurgery.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Läkarutbildningen

    Författare :Gustaf Lejonberg; [2012]
    Nyckelord :hydroxyethyl starch; photometric Clauss; Clauss method; fibrinogen determination; p-fibrinogen; fibrinogen quantification; HES; thromboelastography; thromboelastometry; ROTEM; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Fibrinogen, a plasma protein essential for clot formation, can reach critically low levels during bleeding. The most commonly used method to determine fibrinogen is the photometric Clauss method. LÄS MER
