Predictive haemostatic biomarkers and transfusion efficacy, insights from fresh frozen plasma use in surgical patients, preliminary results

Abstract The aim of the study was to examine various haemostasis values to identify the most relevant biological indicators for detecting significant haemorrhage, to determine the effectiveness of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion. Our findings suggest that a low prothrombin time, elevated Von W...

Description
Summary:Abstract The aim of the study was to examine various haemostasis values to identify the most relevant biological indicators for detecting significant haemorrhage, to determine the effectiveness of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion. Our findings suggest that a low prothrombin time, elevated Von Willebrand Antigen, increased plasma fibrinogen, and reduced Ca2 + levels are associated with challenges in achieving proper haemostasis. However, measurements of factors II, V, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XIII, protein C, and protein S do not appear to be linked to difficulties in achieving adequate haemostasis. Additionally, the administration of FFP appears to impact factors V, VII, X, and II. Trial registration EudraCT number: 2019-002898-64.
