THROMBOELASTOMETRIC ASSESSMENT OF HEMOSTASIS FOLLOWING HYDROXYETHYL STARCH (130/0.4) ADMINISTRATION AS A CONSTANT RATE INFUSION IN HYPOALBUMINEMIC DOGS

Abstract Background The primary aim was to evaluate by means of thromboelastometry (ROTEM) the effects of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 administered as a constant rate Headset infusion (CRI) on hemostasis in hypoalbuminemic dogs.The second aim was to use ROTEM analysis to detect whether all hypoalbuminemic dogs of our population were hypercoagu
