Temperature effect on coagulation function in mild hypothermic patients undergoing thoracic surgeries: thromboelastography (TEG) versus standard tests

Abstract Purpose Our previous research has revealed that mild hypothermia leads to excessive bleeding in thoracic surgeries, while the underlying mechanism stayed unrevealed by the standard coagulation tests. The research question in this study was as follows: “How does mild hypothermia impair the h...
