Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) induces complex systemic hemostatic alterations associated with secondary brain damage and death. We specifically investigated perioperative changes of hemostasis in patients with isolated TBI undergoing major neurosurgery and searched for their influence on outcome. METHODS Serial analysis (four time points, T0-T3) of conventional coagulation assay and rotational thromboelastometry data acquired during 72 h from admission of 68 patients who underwent craniotomy to remove hematoma and/or to decompress the brain was performed. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes were the prevalence of hypocoagulation and increased clotting activity, coagulation parameters between survivors and nonsurvivors, and cutoff values of coagulation parameters predictive of mortality. RESULTS Overall mortality was 22%. The prevalence of hypocoagulation according to rotational thromboelastometry decreased from 35.8% (T0) to 15.9% (T3). Lower fibrinogen levels, hyperfibrinolysis and fibrinolysis shutdown in the early period (T0-T1) following TBI were associated with higher mortality. Optimal cutoff values were identified: fibrin polymerization thromboelastometry (FIBTEM) clot amplitude at 10 min after clotting time ≤ 13 mm at T0 and FIBTEM clot amplitude at 10 min after clotting time ≤ 16.5 mm at T1 increased the odds of death by 6.0 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.54-23.13, p = 0.010) and 9.7 (95% CI 2.06-45.36, p = 0.004), respectively. FIBTEM maximum clot firmness ≤ 14.5 mm at T0 and FIBTEM maximum clot firmness ≤ 18.5 mm at T1 increased the odds of death by 6.3 (95% CI 1.56-25.69, p = 0.010) and 9.1 (95% CI 1.88-44.39, p = 0.006). Fibrinogen < 3 g/L on postoperative day 1 (T1) was associated with a 9.5-fold increase of in-hospital mortality (95% CI 1.72-52.98, p = 0.01). Increased clotting activity was not associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS Rotational thromboelastometry adds important information for identifying patients with TBI at increased risk of death. Early fibrinogen-related coagulation disorders are associated with mortality of patients with TBI undergoing major neurosurgical procedures. Maintenance of higher fibrinogen levels might be necessary for neurosurgical patients with acute TBI.

Evaluation of the Effect of Storage Time on ROTEM S® Parameters in Healthy and Ill Dogs. Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12151996.

Abstract
Simple Summary Bleeding disorders can cause life-threatening illness in dogs. The need for fast recognition and diagnosis of these conditions is therefore of the utmost importance to have a positive impact on the patients’ survival. In the past decade, the use of viscoelastic testing for rapid assessment of global haemostasis has gained popularity. However, the most reliable time for testing after blood collection has not been determined. For this reason, blood samples were taken from healthy client-/staff-owned dogs and repeated measurements were performed at three different time points (10 min, 30 min, and 70 min after blood collection). Additionally, a group of currently ill patients was included and Ex-TEM S measurements were performed at the same three timepoints. We found that there was a significant change of results over time, suggesting the need for time-specific reference intervals. Which of these time points reflects the “true” coagulation status of our patients currently remains unknown. Abstract Viscoelastic testing as a bedside test to assess global haemostasis has gained popularity in the past decade, with rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and thromboelastography (TEG) being the two commonly used devices. TEG studies suggest analysis 30 min after blood sampling. However, the reproducibility of results over time for ROTEM analysis using lyophilized samples in dogs has not been established. In this study, we investigated the influence of time on viscoelastic testing, using 33 healthy staff-/client-owned dogs for blood sampling and repeated measurements of ROTEM tracings at three different time points after blood collection. Additionally, a group of 21 hospitalized patients with suspected coagulation disorders were included to investigate whether stability over time was comparable between healthy and ill dogs. We demonstrated a significant difference of ROTEM tracings over time, with a tendency towards hypocoagulability over time. These changes do have a clinical relevance as they exceed reference intervals and could therefore lead to erroneous conclusions about a patient’s coagulation status. Therefore, time-specific reference intervals are proposed and presented in this publication.

Temporal Transitions in Fibrinolysis after Trauma: Adverse Outcome Is Principally Related to Late Hypofibrinolysis. Anesthesiology 2021; 136:148-161.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between late clinical outcomes after injury and early dynamic changes between fibrinolytic states is not fully understood. The authors hypothesized that temporal transitions in fibrinolysis states using rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) would aid stratification of adverse late clinical outcomes and improve understanding of how tranexamic acid modulates the fibrinolytic response and impacts mortality. METHODS The authors conducted a secondary analysis of previously collected data from trauma patients enrolled into an ongoing prospective cohort study (International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number [ISRCTN] 12962642) at a major trauma center in the United Kingdom. ROTEM was performed on admission and at 24 h with patients retrospectively grouped into three fibrinolysis categories: tissue factor-activated ROTEM maximum lysis of less than 5% (low); tissue factor-activated ROTEM maximum lysis of 5 to 15% (normal); or tissue factor-activated ROTEM maximum lysis of more than 15% (high). Primary outcomes were multiorgan dysfunction syndrome and 28-day mortality. RESULTS Seven-hundred thirty-one patients were included: 299 (41%) were treated with tranexamic acid and 432 (59%) were untreated. Two different cohorts with low-maximum lysis at 24 h were identified: (1) severe brain injury and (2) admission shock and hemorrhage. Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome was greatest in those with low-maximum lysis on admission and at 24 h, and late mortality was four times higher than in patients who remained normal during the first 24 h (7 of 42 [17%] vs. 9 of 223 [4%]; P = 0.029). Patients that transitioned to or remained in low-maximum lysis had increased odds of organ dysfunction (5.43 [95% CI, 1.43 to 20.61] and 4.85 [95% CI, 1.83 to 12.83], respectively). Tranexamic acid abolished ROTEM hyperfibrinolysis (high) on admission, increased the frequency of persistent low-maximum lysis (67 of 195 [34%]) vs. 8 of 79 [10%]; P = 0.002), and was associated with reduced early mortality (28 of 195 [14%] vs. 23 of 79 [29%]; P = 0.015). No increase in late deaths, regardless of fibrinolysis transition patterns, was observed. CONCLUSIONS Adverse late outcomes are more closely related to 24-h maximum lysis, irrespective of admission levels. Tranexamic acid alters early fibrinolysis transition patterns, but late mortality in patients with low-maximum lysis at 24 h is not increased. EDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE

Abstract
Viscoelastic assays (VEAs) that include thromboelastography and rotational thromboelastometry add value to the investigation of coagulopathies and goal-directed management of bleeding by providing a complete picture of clot formation, strength, and lysis in whole blood that includes the contribution of platelets, fibrinogen, and coagulation factors. Conventional coagulation assays have several limitations, such as their lack of correlation with bleeding and hypercoagulability; their inability to reflect the contribution of platelets, factor XIII, and plasmin during clot formation and lysis; and their slow turnaround times. VEA-guided transfusion algorithms may reduce allogeneic blood exposure during and after cardiac surgery and in the emergency management of trauma-induced coagulopathy and hemorrhage. However, the popularity of VEAs for other indications is driven largely by extrapolation of evidence from cardiac surgery, by the drawbacks of conventional coagulation assays, and by institution-specific preferences. Robust diagnostic studies validating and standardizing diagnostic cutoffs for VEA parameters and randomized trials comparing VEA-guided algorithms with standard care on clinical outcomes are urgently needed. Lack of such studies represents the biggest barrier to defining the role and impact of VEA in clinical care.

Abstract
Hypercoagulability can occur after severe tissue injury, that is likely related to tissue factor exposure and impaired endothelial release of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). In contrast, when shock and hypoperfusion occur, activation of the protein C pathway and endothelial tPA release induce a shift from a procoagulant to a hypocoagulable and hyperfibrinolytic state with a high risk of bleeding. Both thrombotic and bleeding phenotypes are associated with increased mortality and are influenced by the extent and severity of tissue injury and degree of hemorrhagic shock. Response to trauma is a complex, dynamic process in which risk can shift from bleeding to thrombosis depending on the injury pattern, hemostatic treatment, individual responses, genetic predisposition, and comorbidities. Based on this body of knowledge, we will review and consider future directions for the management of severely injured trauma patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Goal-directed hemostatic resuscitation based on thrombelastography (TEG) has a survival benefit compared with conventional coagulation assays such as international normalized ratio, activated partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen level, and platelet count. While TEG-based transfusion thresholds for patients at risk for massive transfusion (MT) have been defined using rapid TEG, cutoffs have not been defined for TEG using other activators such as kaolin. The purpose of this study was to develop thresholds for blood product transfusion using citrated kaolin TEG (CK-TEG) in patients at risk for MT. METHODS CK-TEG was assessed in trauma activation patients at two Level 1 trauma centers admitted between 2010 and 2017. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed to test the predictive performance of CK-TEG measurements in patients requiring MT, defined as >10 units of red blood cells or death within the first 6 hours. The Youden Index defined optimal thresholds for CK-TEG-based resuscitation. RESULTS Of the 825 trauma activations, 671 (81.3%) were men, 419 (50.8%) suffered a blunt injury, and 62 (7.5%) received a MT. Patients who had a MT were more severely injured, had signs of more pronounced shock, and more abnormal coagulation assays. CK-TEG R-time was longer (4.9 vs. 4.4 min, p = 0.0084), angle was lower (66.2 vs. 70.3 degrees, p < 0.0001), maximum amplitude was lower in MT (57 vs. 65.5 mm, p < 0.0001), and LY30 was greater (1.8% vs. 1.2%, p = 0.0012) in patients with MT compared with non-MT. To predict MT, R-time yielded an area under the ROC curve (AUROC) = 0.6002 and a cut point of >4.45 min. Angle had an AUROC = 0.6931 and a cut point of <67 degrees. CMA had an AUROC = 0.7425, and a cut point of <60 mm. LY30 had an AUROC = 0.623 with a cut point of >4.55%. CONCLUSION We have identified CK-TEG thresholds that can guide MT in trauma. We propose plasma transfusion for R-time >4.45 min, fibrinogen products for an angle <67 degrees, platelet transfusion for MA <60 mm, and antifibrinolytics for LY30 >4.55%.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transfusion is associated with organ failure and nosocomial infection in trauma patients, which may be mediated by soluble bioactive substances in blood products, including extracellular vesicles (EVs). We hypothesize that removing EVs, by washing or filtering of blood products, reduces organ failure and improves host immune response. MATERIALS AND METHODS Blood products were prepared from syngeneic rat blood. EVs were removed from RBCs and platelets by washing. Plasma was filtered through a 0.22‐μm filter. Rats were traumatized by crush injury to the intestines and liver, and a femur was fractured. Rats were hemorrhaged until a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg and randomized to receive resuscitation with standard or washed/filtered blood products, in a 1:1:1 ratio. Sham controls were not resuscitated. Ex vivo whole blood stimulation tests were performed and histopathology was done. RESULTS Washing of blood products improved quality metrics compared to standard products. Also, EV levels reduced by 12% to 77%. The coagulation status, as assessed by thromboelastometry, was deranged in both groups and normalized during transfusion, without significant differences. Use of washed/filtered products did not reduce organ failure, as assessed by histopathologic score and biochemical measurements. Immune response ex vivo was decreased following transfusion compared to sham but did not differ between transfusion groups. CONCLUSION Filtering or washing of blood products improved biochemical properties and reduced EV counts, while maintaining coagulation abilities. However, in this trauma and transfusion model, the use of optimized blood components did not attenuate organ injury or immune suppression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic hyperfibrinolysis is a lethal phenotype of trauma-induced coagulopathy. Its pathogenesis is poorly understood. Recent studies have support a central role of platelets in hemostasis and in fibrinolysis regulation, implying that platelet impairment is integral to the development of postinjury systemic hyperfibrinolysis. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to identify if platelet function is associated with blood clot sensitivity to fibrinolysis. We hypothesize that platelet impairment of the ADP pathway correlates with fibrinolysis sensitivity in trauma patients. METHODS A prospective observational study of patients meeting the criteria for the highest level of activation at an urban trauma center was performed. Viscoelastic parameters associated with platelet function (maximum amplitude [MA]) were measured with native thrombelastography (TEG), and TEG platelet mapping of the ADP pathway (ADP-MA). The contribution of fibrinogen to clotting was measured with TEG (angle) and the TEG functional fibrinogen (FF) assay (FF-MA). Another TEG assay containing tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) (75 ng mL(-1) ) was used to assess clot sensitivity to an exogenous fibrinolytic stimulus by use of the TEG lysis at 30 min (LY30) variable. Multivariate linear regression was used to identify which TEG variable correlated with t-PA-LY30 (quantification of fibrinolysis sensitivity). RESULTS Fifty-eight trauma patients were included in the analysis, with a median injury severity score of 17 and a base deficit of 6 mEq L(-1) . TEG parameters that significantly predicted t-PA-LY30 were related to platelet function (ADP-MA, P = 0.001; MA, P < 0.001) but not to fibrinogen (FF-MA, P = 0.773; angle, P = 0.083). Clinical predictors of platelet ADP impairment included calcium level (P = 0.001), base deficit (P = 0.001), and injury severity (P = 0.001). RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Platelet impairment of the ADP pathway is associated with increased sensitivity to t-PA. ADP pathway inhibition in platelets may be an early step in the pathogenesis of systemic hyperfibrinolysis.

Abstract
Viscoelastic methods (VEM) made available the bedside assessment of blood clotting. Unlike standard laboratory tests, the results are based on the whole blood coagulation and are available in real time at a much faster turnaround time. In combination with our new knowledge about pathophysiology of the trauma-induced coagulopathy, the goal-oriented treatment protocols have been recently proposed for the initial management of bleeding in trauma victims. Additionally, the utility of viscoelastic monitoring devices has been proved even outside this setting in cardiosurgical patients or those undergoing liver transplantation. Many other situations were described in literature showing the potential use of bedside analysis of coagulation for the management of bleeding or critically ill patients. In the near future, we may expect further improvement in current bedside diagnostic tools enabling not only the assessment of secondary hemostasis but also the platelet aggregation. More sensitive assays for new anticoagulants are underway. Aim of this review is to offer the reader a multidisciplinary overview of VEM and their potential use in anesthesiology and critical care.
