From: Thromboelastometry versus free-oscillation rheometry and enoxaparin versus tinzaparin: an in-vitro study comparing two viscoelastic haemostatic tests’ dose-responses to two low molecular weight heparins at the time of withdrawing epidural catheters from ten patients after major surgery

Diagram showing the parameters recorded from rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and free oscillation rheometry (FOR, ReoRox). (a) ROTEM. (b) ReoRox. A brief explanation of the parameters follows: measures of clot initiation: ROTEM-CT (clot time) and FOR-COT1 and -COT2. Measures of clot propagation: ROTEM-CFT and –alpha angle; and FOR-(COT2-COT1) and –Slope. Measures of clot structure: ROTEM-MCF and FOR-G’max. Measures of fibrinolysis: ROTEM-ML and FOR-Clot SR
