Targeted Thromboelastographic (TEG) Blood Component and Pharmacologic Hemostatic Therapy in Traumatic and Acquired Coagulopathy

Open access

Abstract

Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is a recently described condition which traditionally has been diagnosed by the common coagulation tests (CCTs) such as prothrombin time/international normalized ratio (PT/INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), platelet count, and fibrinogen levels. The varying sensitivity and specificity of these CCTs have led trauma coagulation researchers and clinicians to use Viscoelastic Tests (VET) such as Thromboelastography (TEG) to provide Targeted Thromboelastographic Hemostatic and Adjunctive Therapy (TTHAT) in a goal directed fashion to those trauma patients in need of hemostatic resuscitation. This review describes the utility of VETs, in particular, TEG, to provide TTHAT in trauma and acquired non-trauma-induced coagulopathy. Keywords: Thromboelastography, point-of-care, acquired coagulopathy, blood component therapy, systemic hemostatic agents, trauma-induced coagulopathy, hemostatic resuscitation, tranexamic acid, targeted pharmacologic therapy.

Fig. (3) Cup 1 is a standard-kaolin TEG that represents baseline clotting. Heparin is added to cups 2-4 in order to neutralize thrombin, while factor XIIIa and reptilase stimulate isolated fibrinogen formation so that the ADP and AA receptors in cups 3 and 4 platelet can be activated by ADP and AA respectively to create an isolated fibrinogen-platelet clot.

Fig. (4) The standard-kaolin TEG provides the baseline maximum amplitude (MA) which is compared to the MA of a second cup that contains abciximab. This results in the assessment of clot strength under platelet inhibition, which is represented by the green MA.

Fig. (5) Normal TEG tracing (in black) resembles a wide flat (non-functional) shovel with a short handle. The superimposed “shovel” (in red) demonstrates a tracing with a prolonged R, flat α-angle, small MA and increased LY30%, indicative of a systemic coagulopathy with fibrinolysis. *Some recommend LY30% >3% as threshold for anti-fibrinolytic agent [19,74].

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
