Increased lactate levels impair the coagulation system--a potential contributing factor to progressive hemorrhage after traumatic brain injuryMartin Engstrom
Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Lund University Hospital, Sweden
J Neurosurg Anesthesiol 18:200-4. 2006..It may also be important to consider in bleeding trauma patients...
Acidosis impairs the coagulation: A thromboelastographic studyMartin Engstrom
Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Lund University Hospital, Lund, Sweden
J Trauma 61:624-8. 2006..Acidosis is known to be a predictor of worse outcome in trauma patients and to be a coexisting factor in coagulopathic patients, but it has not been studied if it is a causal factor in the development of coagulopathy...
Ethanol impairs coagulation and fibrinolysis in whole blood: a study performed with rotational thromboelastometryMartin Engstrom
Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Lund University Hospital, Lund, Sweden
Blood Coagul Fibrinolysis 17:661-5. 2006..The inhibition of fibrinolysis is obvious already at an ethanol level of 1 per thousand and it may be a contributing factor to the increased amount of coronary and cerebrovascular ischemic events after binge drinking...
The effects of platelet transfusions evaluated using rotational thromboelastometryPer Flisberg
Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Lund University Hospital, Lund, Sweden
Anesth Analg 108:1430-2. 2009..In this study, we assessed the immediate effects of platelet transfusion on whole blood coagulation...
Monitoring of low molecular weight heparin anticoagulation during haemodialysis with a Sonoclot AnalyzerUlf Schott
Skane University Hospital, Lund, Skåne, Sweden
Perfusion 25:191-6. 2010..Sonoclot was used in this study to monitor low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) during haemodialysis...
Thrombocytopenia predicts progressive hemorrhage after head traumaMartin Engstrom
Department of Neuro Intensive Care, Lund University Hospital, Lund, Sweden
J Neurotrauma 22:291-6. 2005..These findings support a causal relationship between thrombocytopenia and PHI. The findings provide a rationale for future studies of hemostatic agents in the treatment of TBI in order to minimise complications caused by PHI...
A thromboelastometric evaluation of the effects of hypothermia on the coagulation systemMalin Rundgren
Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Halmstad Central Hospital, Halmstad, Sweden
Anesth Analg 107:1465-8. 2008..Most studies have been performed on plasma instead of whole blood. We therefore evaluated whole blood investigating the effects of hypothermia on the coagulation system over a wide range of temperatures (25-40 degrees C)...
