In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

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. In many surgical and trauma-related contexts, viscoelastic tests, like Rotational Thromboelastometry (ROTEM), offer a comprehensive assessment of hemostasis, and it has been demonstrated to predict bleeding risk more accurately than traditional coagulation tests. The aim of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of a ROTEM-based algorithm in managing the administration of prophylactic blood components to patients diagnosed with decompensated liver cirrhosis undergoing invasive high risk of bleeding procedures. The investigators hypothe
