Article Title: Comparison of Thromboelastography Devices TEG ® 6S Point of Care Device vs. TEG ® 5000 in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

doi: 10.1182/ject-42-49

Figure Lengend Snippet: Linear regression plots (A–D) for all thromboelastography (TEG) parameters comparing TEG®5000 vs. TEG®6S from n = 100 patients yielding 225 comparisons analyzed from samples collected from rewarming and intensive care unit (ICU) time points. The solid line represents the best-fit linear regression line and the dotted lines represent 95% confidence interval of the best-fit line. Regression formula and Pearson r values for the best-fit of the slope are represented.

Article Snippet: In a recently published article, we have shown an association of low rewarming TEG maximum amplitude (MA) measured on TEG ® 5000 (Haemonetics Inc., Braintree, MA) device with increased risk for bleeding in pediatric patients undergoing high-risk cardiac surgery ( 5 ).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Bland–Altman plots (A–D) for all thromboelastography (TEG) parameters (R-time, K-time, angle, maximum amplitude [MA]) (n = 225). Average of the TEG parameters from both methods (TEG®5000 and TEG®6S) on X-axis was plotted against difference between the TEG parameters from both methods (TEG®5000 − TEG®6S) on the Y-axis. The solid line represents 95% limits of agreement and the dashed line represents the bias.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Linear regression analysis and Bland–Altman plots comparing TEG®6S-FLEV and Clauss-fibrinogen (mg/dl) method (n = 54). (A) For linear regression analysis plots, solid line represents the best-fit linear regression line and the dotted lines represent 95% confidence interval of the best-fit line. Regression formula and Pearson r values for the best-fit of the slope are represented. (B) For Bland–Altman plots, average of the TEG parameters from both methods (TEG®5000 and TEG®6S) on X-axis was plotted against difference between the TEG parameters from both methods (TEG®5000 − TEG®6S) on the Y-axis.
