Simple blood test may predict Post-Surgery clot risk
NCT ID NCT00901160
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study aimed to see if a blood test called thromboelastography (TEG) and platelet mapping could predict clotting or bleeding complications after non-cardiac surgery. The study included 200 patients who were taking aspirin or clopidogrel for at least 10 days before elective surgery. The goal was to understand if the test results could identify patients at higher risk for complications like heart attack, stroke, or bleeding.
