Abstract
Thromboelastography (TEG) is a point-of-care test (POCT) used to analyze the hemostatic properties of whole blood. TEG® 5000and TEG® 6s (Haemonetics Corp, USA) measure the same parameters describing clot viscoelasticity using different methodologies. The purpose of this study was to evaluate agreement between TEG5000 and TEG6s measurements. We analyzed prospectively collected tests resulting from paired blood samples in cardiac surgery pediatric patients at one hour (T0) and 24 h (T1) postoperatively. Each citrated sample was utilized for TEG® 5000 and TEG ®6s. Six specific TEG parameters were analyzed and compared: R kaolin time (RK), R kaolin heparinase (RKH) time, K kaolin time (KK), K kaolin heparinase time KH (KKH), Maximum Amplitude kaolin (MAK), Maximal Amplitude Kaolin Heparinase (MAKH). We enrolled 30 patients. Median (interquartile range) patients' age was 206 (20-597) days. All surgical patients underwent correction except 5 who were palliated. At T0, RK and RKH showed an average (standard deviation) % bias of 15.8 (31) and 16.1 (28), respectively, with similar results at T1. A % bias of -6 (23) and - 6 [15] in MAK was found at T0 and T1, respectively. Similarly, MAKH % bias was 1.5 (22) and 7.6 (29) at T0 and T1, respectively. At both timepoints, low % biases (< ± 6%) were demonstrated in KK and KKH. All parameters showed improved coagulation from T0 to T1, but without significant interaction between type of device and time. Analysis of the entire pool of 60 paired samples showed no agreement in diagnostic performance (within the range vs. outside the range) in 12 (20%), 5 (9.8%), 1 (1.7%), 4 (7.8%), 9 (15%), and 5 (9.8%) cases for RK, RKH, MAK, MAKH, KK and KKH, respectively. We observed substantial agreement in MAK and KK in a cohort of pediatric patients undergoing uncomplicated cardiac surgery. Our findings suggest that TEG®5000 and TEG®6s are interchangeable for assessing these parameters.

Viscoelastic Hemostatic Assays: A Primer on Legacy and New Generation Devices. J. Clin. Med. 2022, 11, 860. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12020477.

Abstract
With the advent of new viscoelastometric hemostatic assay (VHA) devices, with ready-to-use cartridge reagents allowing for their use by people without special laboratory skills, the appreciation of the actual clinical value of VHAs in settings such as severe trauma, post-partum hemorrhage, cardiac surgery and liver transplantation still needs to be fully validated. While two of the newest versions remain based on a 'cup and pin' system (ROTEM® sigma, ClotPro®), two other new devices (TEG® 6s, Quantra®) rely on very different technologies: clotting blood is no longer in contact with the probe and challenged by oscillation of one of the components but explored with ultrasound exposure. A systematic literature search (including Sonoclot®) retrieved 20 observational studies (19 prospective). Most studies pointed to imperfect agreements, highlighting the non-interchangeability of devices. Only a few studies, often with a limited number of patients enrolled, used a clinical outcome. No study compared VHA results with conventional laboratory assays obtained through a rapid tests panel. Clinical evidence of the utility of the new VHAs largely remains to be proven through randomized clinical trials, with clinically relevant outcomes, and compared to rapid panel hemostasis testing. The availability of new, improved VHA devices provides an impetus and an opportunity to do so.

Abstract
We have reviewed a large number of relevant literature to determine the deficiencies of orthopedics in the diagnosis and prevention of venous thromboembolism(VTE)events during the perioperative period, and found that the TEG technology has been widely used after liver transplantation, which may make up for the deficiencies. This review expounds the detection principle and latest thromboelastography (TEG) development, and highlights the advantages of TEG over previous screening methods in diagnosing hypercoagulability. By analyzing the correlation and consistency between TEG and conventional coagulation test, reliable indexes for diagnosing hypercoagulability and important parameters for guiding perioperative anticoagulation treatment were summarized. Furthermore, our work contributes to further studies of TEG in orthopedics. Based on the research results, we believe that TEG may help orthopedists to identify and predict VTE events, use anticoagulants, eventually reduce the occurrence of VTE events.

Abstract
Modern approaches to resuscitation seek to bring patient interventions as close as possible to the initial trauma. In recent decades, fresh or cold-stored whole blood has gained widespread support in multiple settings as the best first agent in resuscitation after massive blood loss. However, whole blood is not a panacea, and while current guidelines promote continued resuscitation with fixed ratios of blood products, the debate about the optimal resuscitation strategy-especially in austere or challenging environments-is by no means settled. In this narrative review, we give a brief history of military resuscitation and how whole blood became the mainstay of initial resuscitation. We then outline the principles of viscoelastic hemostatic assays as well as their adoption for providing goal-directed blood-component therapy in trauma centers. After summarizing the nascent research on the strengths and limitations of viscoelastic platforms in challenging environmental conditions, we conclude with our vision of how these platforms can be deployed in far-forward combat and austere civilian environments to maximize survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic injury results in both physical and physiologic insult. Successful care of the trauma patient depends upon timely correction of both physical and biochemical injury. Trauma-induced coagulopathy is a derangement of hemostasis and thrombosis that develops rapidly and can be fatal if not corrected. Viscoelastic monitoring (VEM) assays have been developed to provide rapid, accurate, and relatively comprehensive depictions of an individual's coagulation profile. VEM are increasingly being integrated into trauma resuscitation guidelines to provide dynamic and individualized guidance to correct coagulopathy. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a narrative review of the search terms viscoelastic, thromboelastography, thromboelastometry, TEG, ROTEM, trauma, injury, resuscitation, and coagulopathy using PubMed. Particular focus was directed to articles describing algorithms for management of traumatic coagulopathy based on VEM assay parameters. RESULTS Our search identified 16 papers with VEM-guided resuscitation strategies in adult patients based on TEG, 12 such protocols in adults based on ROTEM, 1 protocol for children based on TEG, and 2 protocols for children based on ROTEM. CONCLUSIONS This review presents evidence to support VEM use to detect traumatic coagulopathy, discusses the role of VEM in trauma resuscitation, provides a summary of proposed treatment algorithms, and discusses pending questions in the field.

Abstract
Infection by SARS-CoV-2 is associated with a high risk of thrombosis. The laboratory documentation of hypercoagulability and impaired fibrinolysis remains a challenge. Our aim was to assess the potential usefulness of viscoelastometric testing (VET) to predict thrombotic events in COVID-19 patients according to the literature. We also (i) analyzed the impact of anticoagulation and the methods used to neutralize heparin, (ii) analyzed whether maximal clot mechanical strength brings more information than Clauss fibrinogen, and (iii) critically scrutinized the diagnosis of hypofibrinolysis. We performed a systematic search in PubMed and Scopus databases until 31st December 2020. VET methods and parameters, and patients' features and outcomes were extracted. VET was performed for 1063 patients (893 intensive care unit (ICU) and 170 non-ICU, 44 studies). There was extensive heterogeneity concerning study design, VET device used (ROTEM, TEG, Quantra and ClotPro) and reagents (with non-systematic use of heparin neutralization), timing of assay, and definition of hypercoagulable state. Notably, only 4 out of 25 studies using ROTEM reported data with heparinase (HEPTEM). The common findings were increased clot mechanical strength mainly due to excessive fibrinogen component and impaired to absent fibrinolysis, more conspicuous in the presence of an added plasminogen activator. Only 4 studies out of the 16 that addressed the point found an association of VETs with thrombotic events. So-called functional fibrinogen assessed by VETs showed a variable correlation with Clauss fibrinogen. Abnormal VET pattern, often evidenced despite standard prophylactic anticoagulation, tended to normalize after increased dosing. VET studies reported heterogeneity, and small sample sizes do not support an association between the poorly defined prothrombotic phenotype of COVID-19 and thrombotic events.
