Validation of TEG 6s in Pediatric Patients
This study is looking at how well a diagnostic test called Thromboelastography (TEG 6s) works in children who are having surgery. TEG 6s is a test that uses a small amount of blood to check how well blood clots. Researchers want to find out what normal TEG 6s results look like in children and compare them to existing information. You might be able to join if you are between 3 months and 18 years old and are having an elective surgery at Riley Hospital for Children. You cannot join if you have a known bleeding disorder or take medications that affect blood clotting. The study will look at specific measurements from the TEG 6s test, like the angle, R time, and maximum amplitude, over two months to see if the test is accurate.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 125 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.
- What's involved
- Participants will be asked to provide a small amount of blood at the beginning of their elective surgery for analysis using the TEG 6s machine.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary endpoints are measured at 2 months after the initial test.
