Blood Coagulation Profile After Liver Resection.

blood samples for conventional coagulation test were obtained in vacutainer tubes from an arterial line. Two blood citrate samples (3 ml, sodium citrate solution, Vacuette® Blood Tubes) were also collected for the laboratory conventional coagulation tests (aPTT, INR, D-dimer levels, Antithrombin III) and TEG®6s assessment. The TEG parameters include reaction time (R), clot formation time (K), angle or α (K angle), maximum amplitude (MA), and amplitude at 30 minutes (LY30)
