Summary

This study aims to create a simple blood test algorithm to help doctors manage bleeding more precisely during open heart surgery. Researchers will use leftover blood samples from 140 patients to measure clotting properties and compare standard care versus test-guided treatment. The goal is to reduce unnecessary use of blood products like platelets and plasma, making surgery safer.
