Piotr F. Czempik: Effect of Uremia on Platelet-Mediated Clot Strength in Sepsis

Piotr F. Czempik, Chair of Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care and Department of Patient Blood Management at Medical University of Silesia (SUM), Assistant Professor at SUM, Chairperson of Transfusion Committee at UCK Katowice, shared a post on LinkedIn about his recent article, adding:

“I’m pleased to share my latest publication:

Impact of uremia on platelet contribution to clot strength assessed with rotational thromboelastometry: A retrospective cohort study in septic patients‘.

Key findings include the following:

  • uremia is linked to impaired platelet contribution to clot strength
  • this impairment may have prognostic significance
  • ROTEM‑derived platelet contribution is an independent predictor of short‑term ICU mortality.

These results highlight the value of integrating viscoelastic testing and a more nuanced assessment of renal dysfunction into sepsis evaluation.”
