Figure 2

A, upper side: Thrombelastograph (TEG®) tracing: r = reaction time; K = kinetics; α = slope between r and k; MA = maximum amplitude; CL = clot lysis. B, lower side: Rotation Thrombelastography (RoTEM®) tracing: CT = clotting time; CFT = clot formation time; α = slope of tangent at 2 mm amplitude; MCF = maximal clot firmness; LY = Lysis.
