Introduction: Viscoelastic testing (VET) has been implemented in clinical care to diagnose and manage coagulation in patients with manifest or high risk of major bleeding. However, the breakdown of formed blood clots, that is, fibrinolysis, has been comparatively less studied. There is an increasing recognition that acute infections trigger a dysregulated immunothrombotic response, which has focused attention on viscoelastic testing to identify in particular fibrinolysis resistant states.

Liver transplantation is a complex surgical procedure in which various forms of coagulation dysfunction can occur, including perioperative hypercoagulability. The hemostasis balance in liver graft recipients with end-stage liver disease can shift to thrombosis or haemorrhage, depending on the associated risk factors and clinical conditions. Hypercoagulability can result in serious complications such as thromboembolism, which can affect the vessels of the newly transplanted liver graft.

Background: Patients with pathogenic variants in RASGRP2 (inherited platelet disorder (IPD)-18) exhibit normal platelet counts but impaired platelet aggregation and αβ activation. Moderate-to-severe bleeding episodes require patients to be transfused with platelets and/or pro-hemostatic agents. We recently demonstrated that hemostatic efficacy of transfused platelets is limited by dysfunctional endogenous platelets in a mouse model of IPD-18 (Rasgrp2 mice), as dysfunctional platelets were recruited to the forming hemostatic plug but did not participate in clot contraction.

Background: Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) is caused by an inherited defect of platelet αβ integrin. Concizumab, a monoclonal antibody specific for tissue factor pathway inhibitor, abolishes its anticoagulant effect.
Objectives: To evaluate the in vitro ability of concizumab to improve hemostasis in GT.
