Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Rebalanced hemostasis in CLD can be better depicted by TEG rather than CCT. This might help in reducing un necessary transfusion in patients without bleeding only for the correction of prolonged PT or aPTT. Hypercoagulable patients are at risk of thrombosis and CCT will not be able to differentiate these patients from others whereas TEG can identify hypercoagulable picture and manage them with anticoagulants if needed. Judicious use of blood components can be achieved by TEG.Timepoint: Baseline | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Comparison of TEG parameters to conventional coagulation test. 2. Assessing the transfusion requirement in Chronic liver diseaseTimepoint: 1. Comparison of coagulation parameters - 12-18 months 2. Transfusion requirements - 18 months | — |
