Changes in Coagulation and Fibrinolysis Systems During the Perioperative Period of Acute Type A Aortic Dissection
The changes in coagulation and fibrinolysis in the ATAAD group before surgery were very significant, which caused a large amount of fibrinogen and platelet consumption. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and a lower intraoperative core temperature exacerbated the coagulation and fibrinolysis disorder, and the pro-coagulant function of the platelets was activated after surgery. Maintaining the normal concentration of fibrinogen was helpful to correct the coagulation function disorder.
