Clot Formation in Canine Whole Blood as Measured by Rotational Thromboelastometry Is Influenced by Sample Handling and Coagulation ActivatorSmith, Stephanie A., McMichael, Maureen, Galligan, Alyssa, Gilor, Shir, Hoh, Crystal M. 01 October 2010 (has links)
The objective of the present study was to systematically evaluate the impact of methodology on thromboelastometry with canine whole blood. Thromboelastometry was performed on citrated blood using a variety of combinations of clotting activators [ex-tem (tissue factor or TF), in-tem (ellagic acid), diluted TF from Innovin, or Ca (recalcification only)] and storage times. Thromboelastometry was also performed using diluted TF from Innovin on blood collected into a contact inhibitor. Ex-vivo contact activation was compared between canine and human blood. Clotting activator had a marked impact on coagulation time, a minor impact on alpha angle, and no impact on clot formation time or maximum clot firmness. When ex-tem or in-tem was the clotting activator, sample storage up to 30 min did not affect results. With diluted TF from Innovin or Ca, sample storage was associated with the development of increased coagulability (as indicated by shorter coagulation time and clot formation time and higher alpha angle) due to ex-vivo contact activation. Canine blood underwent markedly more ex-vivo contact activation than did human blood. Canine blood undergoes significant ex-vivo contact activation during and after collection, which influences thromboelastometry results when a weak clotting activator (such as low TF or recalcification) is used. Thromboelastometry with a strong activator (such as ex-tem or in-tem) is less influenced by ex-vivo changes, and, therefore, likely to be more reflective of in-vivo hemostatic capabilities and to provide consistently interpretable and comparable results.

Investigation of the role of global haemostasis assays and bleeding scores in the assessment and management of patients with Factor XI deficiencyPike, Gillian January 2016 (has links)
The clinical management of Factor XI (FXI) deficiency is problematic due to the marked phenotypic heterogeneity between individuals with this disorder and the lack of a reliable test to predict bleeding risk. FXI-deficient individuals are currently at risk of being over- or under treated, with associated risks of transfusion-related complications or haemorrhage respectively. The improvement of care of FXI-deficient patients requires the development of measures that can predict bleeding phenotype and enable the identification of individuals who need treatment at times of haemostatic challenge. In addition, for those requiring treatment, there is a need for development of tests which can determine the optimal type and dose of FXI replacement on an individually tailored basis, as well as assays which can accurately monitor the effect of treatment and guide clinicians in the requirement for further perioperative treatment. This thesis addresses these objectives by studying global haemostasis assays and bleeding scores as tools to predict bleeding tendency and by studying the utility of global haemostasis assays as potential tests by which FXI replacement treatment can be determined and monitored. For prediction of bleeding tendency, this research demonstrated that the thrombin generation assay (TGA) was able to differentiate bleeding tendency provided the sample conditions used in the assay were optimised to assess FXI involved coagulation pathways thought to be of relevance in vivo: using platelet rich plasma with inhibition of in vitro contact activation and a low tissue factor trigger. Thromboelastometry measured using the same sample type was similarly able to distinguish bleeding phenotype. However, when the potential clinical utility of the assays was compared using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, thromboelastometry was inferior to TGA as an identifier of bleeding tendency. When the thromboelastometry sample type used was whole blood, or where assays were performed in the presence of tissue plasminogen activator the assays did not differentiate bleeding phenotype. For purposes of treatment planning, the potential of the TGA to determine the optimal dose of FXI replacement was assessed by in vitro spiking experiments using two commercially available FXI concentrates and samples from individuals with major FXI deficiency. Each concentrate improved thrombin generation, but dose response curves were found to differ, suggesting different properties for the two products. The clinical utility of the approach was then demonstrated with comparable TGA results obtained in ex vivo samples from patients treated with FXI concentrate and baseline samples spiked in vitro with equivalent amounts of the same FXI concentrate. The utility of global haemostasis assays to monitor the effect of FXI replacement in FXI-deficient individuals undergoing surgery was also tested. Improvement in assay parameters after treatment with solvent-detergent fresh frozen plasma or FXI concentrate was demonstrated suggesting assay value in FXI replacement monitoring. Finally the use of recently developed bleeding assessment tools and bleeding scores as descriptive, diagnostic or predictive measures was tested along with correlation with FXI:C levels and TGA parameters. This analysis confirmed that bleeding scores have a limited value in the clinical assessment of FXI deficiency.

Avaliação das alterações hemorrágicas e tromboembólicas em cães com doença renal crônicaGonçalves, Daniele Silvano January 2016 (has links)
Orientador: Regina Kiomi Takahira / Resumo: A doença renal crônica (DRC) acomete principalmente cães idosos e tem como característica principal a perda irreversível da função renal. A DRC em cães promove alterações metabólicas graves, caracterizadas frequentemente pela azotemia, hipoalbuminemia e anemia não regenerativa. Tanto a azotemia quanto a uremia predispõem a alterações hemostáticas que podem levar a quadros hemorrágicos. Além das disfunções plaquetárias, deficiência de anticoagulantes naturais e redução da fibrinólise são fatores que predispõem ao tromboembolismo. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar as possíveis tendências hemorrágicas ou trombóticas em cães com DRC. Foram selecionados 20 cães saudáveis (grupo controle) com exames dentro da normalidade e 17 cães com DRC em estágios III ou IV classificados segundo a IRIS e a relação proteína/creatirina urinária maior que um (grupo DRC). As amostras de sangue para a realização da tromboelastometria (TEM), agregação plaquetária, tempo de protrombina (TP), tempo de tromboplastina parcial ativada (TTPA) e concentração de fibrinogênio foram colhidas em momento único para ambos os grupos após os critérios de inclusão serem confirmados. A análise estatística foi realizada de acordo com a distribuição das variáveis, ao nível de 5% de significância. No presente estudo foi possível observar um estado de hipercoagulabilidade sanguínea nos cães com DRC. Na TEM com o ativador de via extrínseca, observou-se encurtamento no tempo de coagulação e do tempo de formação do coá...

CKD in dogs promotes serious metabolic alterations, often characterized by azotemia, hypoalbuminemia and non-regenerative anemia. Azotemia and uremia predispose the hemostatic abnormalities that can lead to hemorrhagic cases. In addition to platelet dysfunction, deficiency of natural anticoagulants and reduced fibrinolysis are factors that predispose to thromboembolism. This work aims to evaluate the possible bleeding or thrombotic tendencies in dogs with CKD. 20 healthy dogs were selected (control group) with tests within normal limits and 17 dogs with CKD in stages III or IV classified according to IRIS and urine protein to creatinine ratio greater than one (CKD group). Blood samples for the realization of thromboelastometry (TEM), platelet aggregation, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and fibrinogen concentration were collected at one time for both groups after the inclusion criteria had been confirmed. Statistical analysis performed according to the distribution of the variable at the 5% level of significance. In the present study, we observed a state of hypercoagulable blood in dogs with CKD. In TEM with the extrinsic pathway activator, there was shortening of the clotting time and clot formation time, increasing the alpha angle and the maximum clot firmness, and reducing the maximum lysis in dogs with CKD comp...

Thrombingenerierung und Rotationsthromboelastometrie bei gesunden Erwachsenen / Thrombin generation and Rotational Thromboelastometry in the healthy adult populationSchneider, Tobias 21 July 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht in einer Population von 132 gesunden Probanden die Hämostase mittels Calibrated Automated Thrombogram (CAT) und Rotationsthromboelastometrie (ROTEM). CAT wurde im plätchenarmen Plasma mit einer tissue factor (TF) von 1 und 5 pM durchgeführt. Lag time, Thrombin peak, Time to thrombin peak und das endogene Thrombin Potential (ETP) wurden ermittelt. ROTEM wurde ohne Aktivator durchgeführt (NATEM) und die Daten für Gerinnungszeit (clotting time, CT), Gerinnselbildungszeit, Alpha Winkel und maximale Gerinnselfestigkeit (MCF) mit den Daten der Thrombingenerierung korreliert. Es zeigte sich eine positive aber nicht lineare Korrelation bezüglich Alter versus lag time und time to peak, sowie eine annähernd lineare Korrelation bezüglich Alter versus thrombin peak und ETP. Für ROTEM konnte eine positive Korrelation bezüglich Alter versus MCF und Alpha Winkel, aber eine negative Korrelation bezüglich Alter versus CT dargestellt werden. In der Gegenüberstellung beider Assays korrelierten Thrombin peak und ETP (aktiviert mit einer TF Konzentration von 5 pM) signifikant mit dem Alpha Winkel und der MCF. Alle signifikanten Korrelationen zeigten lediglich eine moderate Regressionssteigung. / Published data on thrombin generation variables and their correlation with thromboelastometry in the healthy population are scarce. This study aimed at assessing thrombin generation in adults and its correlation to classical rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM). Methods: Thrombin generation was
measured in platelet-poor plasma from healthy volunteers using the calibrated automated thrombogram (CAT) with 1 and 5 pmol/l tissue factor final concentration. Lag time, thrombin peak, time to thrombin peak and endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) were analyzed. ROTEM was performed without activator (NATEM) and data for clotting time, alpha angle, clot formation time and maximum clot firmness were correlated with
those of thrombin generation. Results: Altogether 132 persons (72 men, 60 women; median age: 48.0 years) were included. There was a positive non-linear correlation for age versus lag time (p < 0.001) and time to peak
(p = 0.001), and almost linear correlation for age versus thrombin peak (p = 0.024) and ETP (p = 0.001), although with a moderate regression
slope. Regarding ROTEM, there was a positive correlation between age and maximum clot firmness and alpha angle (p = 0.001), but a negative correlation between age and clotting time (p = 0.039). Comparing both assays, thrombin peak and ETP measured with a final tissue factor concentration of 5 pmol/l correlated significantly with alpha angle and maximum clot firmness. Conclusion: The age-related changes in CAT and ROTEM variables among adults are not linear. There is a significant correlation, although with a moderate slope, between data from CAT measured with 5 pmol/l tissue factor and ROTEM.

Gestion de la coagulopathie et de la transfusion au cours de la transplantation hépatique : Facteurs de risque de saignement, place du monitorage délocalisé de l’hémostase, étude de la génération de thrombine et de l’hyperfibrinolyse / Management of coagulopathy and transfusion in liver transplantationRoullet, Stéphanie 17 December 2018 (has links)
La transplantation hépatique (TH) est une intervention à risque hémorragique, au cours de laquelle toutes les étapes de la coagulation (hémostase primaire, hémostase secondaire, fibrinolyse) sont perturbées. Nous avons d’abord montré que les facteurs de risque de saignement et transfusion étaient difficiles à identifier et n’étaient pas cliniquement très pertinents. Puis nous avons montré que la thromboélastométrie (ROTEM®) pouvait diagnostiquer la thrombopénie et l’hypofibrinogénémie au cours de la TH, même si l’utilisation d’un algorithme basé sur le ROTEM® ne diminuait pas le saignement ni la transfusion par rapport à un algorithme basé sur les résultats du laboratoire. De plus le ROTEM® manquait de sensibilité pour détecter l’hyperfibrinolyse. La thrombine est l’enzyme-clé de la cascade de la coagulation. Le Calibrated Automated Thrombogram (CAT®) est la méthode de référence de génération de thrombine. Nous avons cherché des moyens rapides d’évaluation de la génération de thrombine, utilisable en routine et sur échantillons individuels. Le Thrombodynamics-4D® (TD4D) permettait à la fois l’étude de la formation et de la propagation du caillot de fibrine dans le temps et l’espace et de la génération de thrombine. Une hyperfibrinolyse survient au cours de 20 à 66% des TH. Elle majore le saignement et la transfusion. Le diagnostic rapide de l’hyperfibrinolyse permettrait un traitement rapide et ciblé par antifibrinolytique. Le Lysis Timer était plus sensible que le ROTEM® pour détecter les hyperfibrinolyses. Le TD4D permettait également de visualiser la lyse du caillot. L’utilisation en routine de ces nouveaux appareils nécessite la validation des résultats sur plasma frais, après accélération des étapes pré-analytiques (centrifugation rapide) et des études cliniques pour les positionner au sein d’algorithmes transfusionnels. / Liver transplantation (LT) is a bleeding procedure, in which all the haemostatic steps (primary haemostasis, secondary haemostasis, fibrinolysis) are impaired. We have first shown the predictive factors of bleeding and transfusion were difficult to determine and were of poor clinical relevance. Then, we showed that thromboelastometry (ROTEM®) could detect thrombocytopenia and hypofibrinogenemia during LT. However, the utilisation of an algorithm based on ROTEM® results did not led to less bleeding and transfusion when compared to an algorithm based on laboratory results. Moreover, ROTEM® lacked sensitivity to detect hyperfibrinolysis. Thrombin is the key-enzyme of coagulation cascade. The Calibrated Automated Thrombogram (CAT®) is the reference test for thrombin generation. We searched for rapid tools to evaluate thrombin generation, usable in routine and on individual plasma samples. The Thrombodynamics-4D® (TD4D) enabled in the same time study of fibrin clot formation and propagation in time and space and thrombin generation. Hyperfibrinolysis is encountered in 20 to 66% of LT procedures. It is associated with more bleeding and transfusion. Rapid diagnosis of hyperfibrinolysis would allow a quick and target treatment with antifibrinolytic drugs. Lysis Timer was more sensitive than ROTEM® to detect hyperfibrinolysis. TD4D also visualized clot lysis. Routine utilization of these new devices now requires validation of its results in fresh plasma, after acceleration of pre-analytic steps (rapid centrifugation) and clinical studies to find their place in transfusion algorithms.

Rôle et évolution du fibrinogène chez la femme enceinte : analyses en sang total par thrombo-élastométrie et implications pour les hémorragies de la délivrance / Role and course of fibrinogen during pregnancy : whole blood analyses by thromboelastometry and relation to postpartum haemorrhagesHuissoud, Cyril 12 December 2011 (has links)
Le rôle du fibrinogène dans les coagulopathies par hémorragie a fait récemment l'objet de travaux importants, la plupart hors du champ obstétrical. L'adaptation de la coagulation et du fibrinogène au cours de la grossesse est méconnue même si sa mise en jeu paraît indispensable à l'hémostase utérine lors de la délivrance. Nous avons donc étudié les modifications gestationnelles du fibrinogène et analysé leurs impacts sur la coagulation et l'hémorragie de la délivrance (HDD). Nous avons montré que le fibrinogène augmentait progressivement pendant la grossesse pour atteindre [3,5-6,5 g/L] (5ème-95ème p.) au 3ème trimestre. L'étude en thromboélastométrie (TEM) a révélé une élévation progressive du "potentiel coagulant" et de la fermeté du caillot chez la femme enceinte. Nous avons ensuite analysé le lien entre le taux initial de fibrinogène lors d'une HDD et le risque d'aggravation (Etude PITHAGORE 6). Le taux de fibrinogène était le meilleur marqueur du risque d'évolution grave. Des seuils de fibrinogène inférieurs à 2 et 3 g/L étaient associés à un risque accru d'aggravation par rapport aux femmes avec un taux > 3 g/L (respectivement OR=11,99 ; IC95% [2,56-56,06] et OR=1.90; IC95% [1,16-3,09]. Enfin l'étude en TEM a montré que les paramètres précoces CA5- et CA15-FIBTEM étaient étroitement corrélés aux taux de fibrinogène lors des HDD permettant l'optimisation du monitorage de la coagulation. Nos résultats nous conduisent à proposer deux scores de coagulopathie obstétricale prenant en compte les spécificités de la grossesse. Des essais seront nécessaires pour valider la pertinence de ces scores et pour évaluer le bénéfice de la compensation précoce en fibrinogène dans les HDD / The role of fibrinogen in haemorrhage-induced coagulopathies has recently been the subject of important work, most of it outside the field of obstetrics. The changes in coagulation and fibrinogen during pregnancy are poorly understood, even though its involvement is essential for uterine haemostasis during the afterbirth. We thus studied the course of fibrinogen levels during pregnancy and analysed their effects on coagulation and postpartum (third-stage) haemorrhage (PPH). We showed that fibrinogen increases progressively during pregnancy, reaching [3.5-6.5 g/L] (5th-95th p.) during the 3rd trimester. The thromboelastometry (TEM) study revealed a progressive increase in the coagulant potential and firmness of clots in pregnant women. We then analysed the association between the initial fibrinogen level during PPH and the risk of aggravation (in the PITHAGORE 6 study). A woman's fibrinogen level was the best marker of the risk that her condition would worsen. Thresholds below 2 and 3 g/L were associated with higher risks of aggravation than in women with fibrinogen concentrations >3g/L (respectively OR=11.99 ; 95% CI [2.56-56.06] and OR=1.90; 95% CI [1.16-3.09]. Finally the TEM study showed that FIBTEM assessment of the early indicators, clot amplitude at 5 and 15 minutes (CA5 and CA15), was closely correlated with fibrinogen levels during PPH and thus helped to optimise coagulation monitoring. Our results lead us to suggest two obstetric coagulopathy scores that take the specificities of pregnancy into account. Trials will be necessary to validate their relevance and to assess the benefits of early fibrinogen replacement in PPH

Efeito da pentoxifilina sobre a coagulopatia em modelo suíno de múltiplos traumas / Effect of pentoxifylline on coagulopathy in a multiple trauma swine modelFerreira, Rodrigo Vaz 15 April 2019 (has links)
Aproximadamente 5,8 milhões de pessoas morrem anualmente vítimas de trauma no mundo. A reposição volêmica inicial dos pacientes graves politraumatizados com choque hemorrágico tem características distintas hoje quando comparada à proposta não mais do que uma década atrás. A infusão reduzida de fluidos associada à transfusão precoce de hemoderivados é o padrão adotado em portadores de hemorragia maciça, no que se chama na literatura de damage control resuscitation (DCR). Entretanto, a administração precoce de componentes do sangue, implica em limitações de armazenamento, transporte, disponibilidade, compatibilidade, reações transfusionais e custo. Assim, estratégias medicamentosas que possam beneficiar o paciente politraumatizado no tratamento do sangramento devem ser desenvolvidas. As pesquisas atuais buscam medidas que possam agir na resposta inflamatória e na coagulopatia envolvidas nas lesões traumáticas e no choque hemorrágico. Desta forma, decidiu- se avaliar o potencial da administração precoce de Pentoxifilina (PTX) em associação com Ringer lactato (RL) e seus efeitos na coagulopatia associada ao trauma. Foi utilizado modelo experimental suíno de choque hemorrágico e politrauma. Foram utilizados 23 suínos, machos, da raça Landrace, com peso médio de 28,5 kg randomizados em 3 grupos: Controle (n=5), RL (n=5) e PTX (n=7). Os animais foram submetidos à anestesia geral, exceto o grupo controle, a uma fratura de fêmur, seguido de choque hemorrágico controlado e, por fim, uma lesão hepática como hemorragia não controlada. Foram analisados parâmetros hemodinâmicos, laboratoriais e gasometria, testes de coagulação padrão e tromboelastometria. Os animais submetidos ao experimento apresentaram taquicardia, hipotensão arterial, hipotermia, acidose, redução de hemoglobina e alteração nos testes de coagulação e viscoelásticos. O lactado no tempo Final mostrou-se mais elevado no grupo PTX, quando comparado ao grupo RL (p=0,01). Os dados da tromboleastometria não mostraram diferença entre os grupos submetidos ao experimento. No tempo Final, observou-se uma redução do fibrinogênio menor no grupo tratado com PTX, quando comparado ao grupo RL (p < 0,01). A análise dos efeitos da pentoxifilina associada à reanimação volêmica sugere melhora dos níveis de fibrinogênio após sua administração seguindo a hemorragia e trauma / Approximately 5.8 million people die each year victim of trauma worldwide. The initial volume replacement of severely injured patients with hemorrhagic shock has different characteristics today than a decade before. Low-volume fluid resuscitation associated with early transfusion of blood products is the standard adopted in patients with massive hemorrhage, so called damage control resuscitation (DCR). However, early administration of blood components implies limitations in storage, transport, availability, compatibility, transfusion reactions, and cost. Thus, drug strategies that may benefit the severely injured patient in the treatment of bleeding should be developed. Current research seeks measures that can modulate the inflammatory response and coagulopathy involved in traumatic injuries and hemorrhagic shock. Therefore, we decided to evaluate the role of early administration of Pentoxifylline (PTX) in association with RL and its effects on coagulopathy and traumatic inflammatory response. A porcine model of multiple trauma and hemorrhagic shock was used. Twenty-three Landrace male pigs were used, with a mean weight of 28.5 kg randomized into three groups: Control (n=5), RL (n=5), and PTX (n=7). The animals were submitted to general anesthesia (except the control group), femur fracture, followed by controlled hemorrhagic shock, and, finally, a hepatic injury (as uncontrolled hemorrhage simulation). Hemodynamic parameters, laboratory tests, standard coagulation tests and thromboelastometry were analyzed. The animals submitted to the experiment presented tachycardia, hypotension, hypothermia, acidosis, hemoglobin decrease and impaired coagulation and viscoelastic tests. Lactate levels at the end of the experiment were higher in the PTX group when compared to RL (p=0,01). Data extracted from thromboelastometric tests have shown no difference between the groups submitted to the protocol. Fibrinogen reduction (consumption) were significantly lower in the PTX group when compared to RL (p < 0,01). The analysis of pentoxifylline effects suggests less fibrinogen consumption after PTX administration

Efeito da N-acetilcisteína associada ao ácido tranexâmico na coagulopatia em modelo suíno de politrauma / Effect of N-acetylcystein in association with tranexamic acid in the coagulopathy of a multi-trauma swine modelCardoso, Juliana Mynssen da Fonseca 11 April 2018 (has links)
Trauma é a maior causa de óbito entre adultos jovens no Brasil e no mundo, considerado um problema grave de saúde mundial. Atualmente, o controle da hemorragia é feito com uma reanimação hemostática, que preconiza a hipotensão permissiva, limita o uso de cristalóides, estimula o uso precoce de hemoderivados e medicamentos que possam minimizar o sangramento. Entretanto, a administração precoce de componentes do sangue, apresenta limitações de armazenamento, transporte, disponibilidade, compatibilidade, reações transfusionais e custo. Assim, devem ser desenvolvidas estratégias medicamentosas que possam beneficiar o paciente politraumatizado no tratamento do sangramento e na coagulopatia traumática. Por isso, decidiuse avaliar o efeito da administração precoce de N-acetilcisteína (NAC) e do ácido tranexâmico (TXA) em associação com Ringer lactato e seus efeitos na coagulação. Foi utilizado modelo experimental de choque hemorrágico e politrauma em 36 suínos, machos, da raça Landrace, com peso médio de 28,34 kg e distribuídos em cinco grupos: Controle (n=5), Ringer lactato (n=5), NAC (n=6), TXA (n=6) e NAC+TXA (n=6). Os animais foram submetidos à anestesia geral, fratura de fêmur, choque hemorrágico controlado e, por fim, a uma lesão hepática com hemorragia não controlada. Foram analisados os parâmetros fisiológicos, testes laboratoriais e tromboelastometria. Todos os animais submetidos ao experimento apresentaram taquicardia, hipotensão arterial, hipotermia, acidose, redução de plaquetas e hemoglobina e alteração nos testes de coagulação e viscoelásticos. O grupo NAC+TXA apresentou melhora do pH e excesso de base nas fases mais tardias do experimento quando comparados com os demais grupos (p < 0,05). No tempo Final, observou-se uma redução do fibrinogênio menor no grupo tratado com NAC+TXA. Na análise da tromboelastometria, os grupos tratados com TXA e NAC+TXA apresentaram o ML menor do que os tratados apenas com Ringer lactato ou NAC (p < 0,05). As análises do estudo sugerem um efeito benéfico da NAC em associação com TXA na melhora da acidose e fibrinólise. / Trauma is the major cause of death among young adults in Brazil and is considered a worldwide public health problem. Today, hemorrhage control begins with a homeostatic approach which preconizes permissive hypotension, limits the use of crystalloids, uses early transfusion and drugs that can minimize bleeding. However, early administration of blood components implies concerns, which includes storage, transport, availability, compatibility, transfusion reactions and cost. Therefore, there must be strategies that could bring benefits to the patient victim of trauma with bleeding and traumatic coagulopathy. Thus, it was decided to evaluate the potential of early administration of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and Tranexamic Acid (TXA) associated or not to Ringer lactate and its potential benefits in coagulopathy. A model of multiple trauma and hemorrhagic shock previously described was used to evaluate these aspects in 36 male pigs, Landrace race, with an average weight of 28,34 kg and randomized into five groups: Control (n=5), Ringer lactate (n=5), NAC (n=6), TXA (n=6) and NAC + TXA (n=6). The animals were submitted to general anesthesia, a femur fracture, followed by controlled hemorrhagic shock, and an uncontrolled hepatic hemorrhage. Physiological parameters, standard laboratory tests and thromboelastometry were analyzed. All the animals showed tachycardia, low blood pressure, hypothermia, acidosis, lower platelets and hemoglobina levels and viscoelastics tests. The group NAC + TXA showed improvement in pH and base excess at the final phase of the experiment when compared with the others groups (p < 0.05). At the final phase, fibrinogen was lower reduced in the NAC + TXA group. In the thromboelastometry, the groups TXA and NAC + TXA had lower ML (Maximum Lysis) than the groups Ringer lactate and NAC. The study suggests a beneficial effect of NAC in association with TXA in improving acidosis and fibrinolysis
