A thromboelastometric evaluation of the effects of hypothermia on the coagulation system.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The number of elderly patients with frank or incipient Alzheimer's disease (AD) requiring surgery is growing as the population ages. General anesthesia may exacerbate symptoms of and the pathology underlying AD, so minimizing anesthetic exposure may be important. This requires knowledge of whether the contin...
