“…Finally, Westbrook et al showed in a prospective randomised controlled study a nonstatistically significant trend toward less blood product usage in a strict protocol utilizing TEG compared to physician's choice based on clinical experience and standard laboratory coagulation tests. The study also demonstrated a cost saving benefit (52). Use of an automated protamine titration system, such as the commercially available pointof-care Hepcon®, has been shown to be associated with higher heparin and lower protamine doses.…”

“…Flere studier har vist at tromboelastografibaserte algoritmer kan bidra til å redusere blodforbruket, spesielt ved hjertekirurgi (13). Implementering av transfusjonsalgoritmer basert på instrumenter som tromboelastografi anbefales blant annet av den europeiske anestesiforeningen (ESA) (14).…”
