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

Box and whisker plots showing rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and free-oscillation rheometry (FOR) results for enoxaparin and tinzaparin at varying concentrations. A brief explanation of the parameters follows: measures of clot initiation: ROTEM-CT (clot time) (a) and FOR-COT1 (b) and -COT2 (c). Measures of clot propagation: ROTEM-CFT (g); and FOR-(COT2-COT1) (h) and –Slope (d). Measures of fibrinolysis:: ROTEM-MCL (e) and FOR-ClotSR (f). *indicates a significant difference with p < 0.05. **indicates a significant difference with p < 0.01. Panels inside the figures both reflect inter- and intra-group comparisons
