Preoperative haemostatic tests may not predict surgical bleeding; leaves open whether alternative tools improve risk stratification in abdominal and thyroid cohorts.
Do preoperative haemostatic screening tests predict surgical bleeding in patients undergoing surgery for abdominal and thyroid lesions?
