Table 4 Summarized hematologic parameters of the control group patients.
| Hematologic parameter | Control-N (n=39) | Control-CP (n=26) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Preoperative | Postoperative | P | Preoperative | Postoperative | P | |
| Hemoglobin, g/L | 135 (125–147) | 106 (95–121) | 129 (118.5–140.25) | 101.5 (89–111.5) | ||
| Hematocrit, % | 40 (36.4–44) | 32 (27.9–35.7) | 37.75 (35.15–41.3) | 30.3 (26.38–32.58) | ||
| PLT, 10/L | 234 (164–265) | 167 (121–222) | 148 (81.5–211.5) | 122.5 (93–169) | 0.065 | |
| PTI, % | 98 (82–115) | 78 (67–89) | 75.5 (59.5–113.5) | 66 (53–91) | ||
| INR | 1.0 (0.95–1.09) | 1.11 (1.05–1.2) | 1.14 (0.96–1.28) | 1.2 (1.04–1.36) | ||
| APTT, s | 31 (29–33.4) | 33.8 (31.2–36.2) | 34.5 (31.05–38.55) | 35.3 (32.35–36.6) | 0.510 | |
| FIB, g/L | 3.47 (2.72–4.15) | 3.2 (2.57–3.8) | 3.35 (1.97–4.15) | 3.2 (2.1–4.13) | 0.380 | |
| SCT abnormal, n (%) | 0 (0) | 15 (38.5) | 26 (100) | 22 (88) | 0.069 | |
| Continuous variables are reported as median (interquartile range). Categorical variables are reported in terms of frequency (percentage). N – normal; CP – coagulopathic; SCT – standard coagulation tests; PLT – platelet count; PTI – prothrombin time index; INR – international normalized ratio; APTT – partial thromboplastin time; FIB – fibrinogen. | ||||||
