چکیده

An abnormal tendency to post-operative hmorrhage may occur in patients with severe cyanotic congenital heart disease (Blalock, 1948). In preliminary findings by Somerville and McDonald (1960) the thromboplastin generation test showed evidence of defective blood coagulation in these patients. Blood coagulation has been further investigated in patients with cyanotic and acyanotic congenital heart disease, and in patients with polycythlmia from other causes.

Due to advanced treatments in the field of heart disease, cyanotic heart disease patients have a greater chance of survival, and nowadays many of them live until adolescence or middle age. One of the signs of this disease is blood hypoxia, which has acute and chronic effects on the CNS. In this paper the effect of chronic hypoxia on children affected by cyanotic congenital heart disease (CH...

Coagulopathies in Cyanotic Cardiac Patients: An Analysis with Three Point-of-care Testing Devices (Thromboelastography, Rotational Thromboelastometry, and Sonoclot Analyzer)

INTRODUCTION In the last few years, viscoelastic point-of-care (POC) coagulation devices such as thromboelastography (TEG), rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM), and Sonoclot (SON) analyzer have been increasingly used in major surgeries for timely assessment and management of coagulopathies. The aim of the present study was to evaluate coagulation profile of cyanotic cardiac patients with TEG,...

Point-of-care assessment of platelet aggregation in paediatric open heart surgery.

BACKGROUND Congenital heart disease (CHD) is associated with complex coagulation abnormalities. Platelet aggregability has not been investigated in detail in children with acyanotic and cyanotic malformations undergoing open heart surgery. The method of whole-blood multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA) appears suitable for rapid platelet analysis in children, for example, because of small sampl...
