Rivaroxaban‐calibrated chromogenic anti‐Xa assay in cirrhosis: Use to rule out disseminated intravascular coagulation

Abstract Peritoneovenous shunts (PVSs) are used to relieve ascites in cirrhosis. Disseminated intervascular coagulation (DIC) is a complication of PVSs requiring immediate PVS removal. We report a patient who developed new elevations of prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time...
