Summary

Cardiac surgery including hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA) commonly involves perioperative transfusion of allogeneic blood products which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In this retrospective analysis, the investigator aimed to evaluate the effect of a thromboelastometry-guided treatment algorithm promoting fibrinogen concentrate as first line hemostatic agent on the perioperative use of allogeneic blood products.
