Brief Summary

  • Compare between thromboelastography (TEG) and conventional coagulation tests (CCT) in children with chronic liver disease who admitted to Assiut University Children Hospital.
  • Detect the advantages of TEG in predicting the risk of bleeding, assessing haemostasis and guiding blood product transfusion for each coagulation defect .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Detect the clotting time, clotting kinetics and clot stability

    By thromboelastography parameters

    Baseline

  • compare between thromboelastography and conventional coagulation tests

    in evaluation of haemostatic status in pediatrics with chronic liver disease .

    Baseline

  • Detect the advantages of thromboelastography

    predicting the risk of bleeding, assessing haemostasis and guiding blood product transfusion for each coagulation defect .

    Baseline

Interventions

thromboelastographyDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Thromboelastography (TEG), a whole blood viscoelastic test. TEG detects the clotting time, clotting kinetics and clot stability to more comprehensively evaluate haemostatic status by several parameters, mainly including reactive time (R), kinetic time (K), angle (α), maximum amplitude (MA) and lysis-30 .
