AUTHORS: Hartmann, Jan MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia ():10.1213/ANE.0000000000007568, May 23, 2025. Blood loss and consumption of procoagulants during acute hemorrhage can reduce the plasma concentration of fibrinogen.1,2 Fibrinogen deficiency can develop earlier than other hemostatic abnormalities in the absence of plasma product transfusion.2 In this setting, hemostatic testing can inform coagulation management and clinical decision-making, particularly […]
