ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the changes of coagulation and fibinolysis in patients undergoing thoracotomy. Methods Forty patients undergoing thoracotomy were enrolled into this trial. The venous blood were collected for normal coagulable function test at the following time points before surgery, at 3 h after the beginning of surgery, at 1 d and 3 d after surgery. Results PT, APTT levels had no obvious change. Compared with before and during surgery, FG levels decreased obviously at 1 d and 3 d after surgery. TEG showed the value of R and K increased during and after surgery and value of MA decreased during and 1 d after surgery, but they had no significance in statistics. CI decreased significantly during and after surgery as compared with before surgery(P
