NCT01928017

Brief Summary

This is a prospective observational clinical study to characterise abnormalities of thromboelastography (TEG) parameters in patients with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia. The investigators are also studying the relationship between Multiplate analysis and bleeding in these patients and the effect of platelet transfusions on thrombopoietin level and percent reticulated platelets. The investigators' hypothesis is that changes in TEG-parameters reflect the patients tendency to bleed.
