Pre‐operative reference ranges for <scp>ROTEM</scp> <sup>®</sup> sigma in patients undergoing cardiac surgery: a secondary analysis of two prospective trial cohorts
Reference ranges for patients undergoing cardiac surgery differed from the manufacturer reference ranges. Pre-operatively, female patients exhibited a slightly more hypercoagulable ROTEM profile than males when comparing medians, though the reference ranges were similar. No differences were found across age categories. Cardiovascular-specific, but not sex- or age-specific ROTEM sigma reference ranges might be needed.
