Abstract

PurposeThe study purpose was to define changes in coagulation across the sepsis spectrum using rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM).MethodsSepsis patients were recruited on admission to the Emergency Department and Intensive Care Units of a large teaching hospital in Wales. ROTEM markers of clot de...
