Sepsis is a major cause of patient death in intensive care units (ICUs). Rapid diagnosis of sepsis assists in optimizing treatments and improves outcomes. Several biomarkers are employed to aid in the diagnosis, prognostication, severity grading, and sub-type discrimination of severe septic infections (SSIs), including current diagnostic parameters, hemostatic measures, and specific organ dysfunction markers.

Blood sampling and analysis are essential procedures for assessing the health status of exotic pets. While careful manual restraint is generally recommended, sedation may be necessary in specific cases. However, the use of chemical restraint may introduce analytical variations.

Congenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare coagulation disorder that increases the risk of bleeding complications during surgery. Although laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is the most common metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS), it is rarely performed in patients with congenital coagulation disorders such as FVII deficiency, due to the high risk of intraoperative and postoperative bleeding. We report the case of a 57-year-old female with class II obesity (BMI 37.

Background: Blood loss during liver transplantation (LT) remains a major concern associated with increased morbidity and reduced patient and graft survival. The high complexity of the procedure associated with the multifaceted origin of the bleeding urges early identification of high-risk patients and proper monitoring of hemostasis disorders in order to improve results. The accuracy of international normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) to evaluate coagulation status in cirrhotic patients has been doubted.
