| Abstract |
Metabolic and inflammatory disturbances associated with obesity are considered important trigger factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Identification of clinical markers indicating a hypercoagulability state could define a group of high-risk patients in the surgical setting. This study aimed to identify these markers using rotational thrombelastometry (ROTEM) analysis, an established method for hemostasis testing that can detect hyperfunctional stages of the clotting process. |
