Background The aim of this retrospective observational study was to explore the early predictive parameters for maximum amplitudein the kaolin with heparinase (HKH) assay (MA) of TEG6s Platelet Mapping in cardiovascular surgery including cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period. The relationship between each parameter of the assay and laboratory data was also assessed. Methods We included the patients who underwent TEG6s Platelet Mapping during cardiovascular surgery under CPB between November 2021 and May 2022. The correlation between MA and the early parameters was assessed. The association between each parameter of Platelet Mapping and a combination of fibrinogen concentration > 150 mg/dL and platelet count > 100,000µL was also evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results In 23 patients who underwent TEG6s Platelet Mapping during the study period, 62 HKH assay data including 59 pairs of data (HKH assay and laboratory data) were analyzed. K and angle, but not R, were significantly correlated with MA (r [95% CI]: -0.90 [-0.94, -0.83], p < 0.0001 for K, and 0.87 [0.79, 0.92], p < 0.0001 for angle). Furthermore, ROC curves suggested that these parameters predicted a combination of fibrinogen concentration > 150 mg/dL and platelet count > 100,000/µL with high accuracy. Similar results were confirmed in the heparinized blood samples obtained during CPB. Conclusion These findings suggest that not only MAbut also K and angle, which are early parameters in the HKH assay, provide clinically significant information that will facilitate rapid decision-making regarding coagulation strategies during cardiovascular surgery including the CPB period.
