Comparison to Previous Work
CLOT
The indications for improvement in coagulation management by Visual Clot may be explained based on previous research on information transfer in clot-based visualization of viscoelastic test results [Arriaga et al [Concerning the outcome of overall coagulation therapy, we could not detect a significant difference between Visual Clot and ROTEM temograms. However, this is not surprising since this outcome also includes measures independent of the interpretation of the viscoelastic test results, which we did not influence by our intervention.Interestingly, previous computer-based studies found a significant reduction in perceived workload when anesthesiologists and intensivists used Visual Clot instead of ROTEM temograms to interpret the viscoelastic test [
