ROTEM (Rotation Thromboelastometry)

ROTEM (Rotation Thromboelastometry) is a diagnostic test that assesses how well your blood clots. It measures the entire process of clot formation and breakdown in real-time by analyzing the physical properties of a blood sample as it clots. This helps doctors understand if a patient has bleeding issues or risks of excessive clotting, guiding treatment such as transfusions or clotting factor administration. ROTEM provides quick, detailed information about the blood’s coagulation status, which is especially useful during surgeries or for patients with complex bleeding disorders.
