What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. incidence of bleeding complications

    In our group of 76 septic patients who had normal values of EXTEM despite prolonged INR/PR invasive procedures were performed without severe bleeding.

    Measured: 2013 - 2016
