Prospective analysis of the influence of the heart-lung machine on factor XII activity in the blood and its functional effects on coagulation capacity, bleeding and thrombosis rates

Conditions
A prolonged aPTT often results in postoperatively inadequate anticoagulation, which could lead to an increased rate of thromboembolic events.
