Clotting time measured by rotational thromboelastometry.

Clotting time in INTEM (A) corresponds to activated partial thrombin time. Clotting time in INTEM was not prolonged in any patient. Clotting time in EXTEM (B) corresponds to prothrombin time. A strongly prolonged clotting time in EXTEM was found in one patient of every group, except HC with all other measured parameters being unchanged. No differences between groups were detected. Lines indicate mean ± standard error of the mean for each group. Dotted lines indicate normal range. HC healthy control, CKD5 patients with chronic kidney disease stage G5, HD patients on hemodialysis, PD patients on peritoneal dialysis.
