Perioperative use of modified thrombelastography in factor XI deficiency: a helpful method to assess drug effects.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Mortality is high after an acute hip fracture (AHF) surgery. Are cognitive impairment and/or altered levels of Alzheimer's Disease (AD)-biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) predictors of mortality in AHF-patients, as retrospective studies indicate? METHODS:Prospective single-center study including 373 AH...
