Compares treatment options for Liver Cirrhosis With Acute Decompensation
Official title Thrombelastometry-guided Blood Component Administration Versus Standard of Care in Patients With Decompensated Liver Cirrhosis Undergoing Invasive Procedures
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07437755
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Patients with liver cirrhosis have historically received prophylactic transfusions before invasive procedures with high risk of bleeding. The optimal method for establishing the need of blood transfusion before invasive procedures in cirrhotic patients has not been determined yet, and there are not enough scientific data to warrant empirical transfusion.
