Viscoelastometric hemostatic assays, such as rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM), offer rapid, point-of-care identification of coagulopathy during postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Previous studies investigating the use of ROTEM have used a Delta ROTEM device. This study investigates the use of the ROTEM Sigma device, identifying the sensitivity, specificity, and positive or negative predictive values in patients with PPH.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
