Figure 5

Changes in Thrombelastograph® (TEG) measurements after hemorrhage and resuscitation with lactated Ringer’s solution (LR, 119 ± 7 ml/kg) or normal saline (NS, 183 ± 9 ml/kg) in pigs. R time: latency time for initial fibrin formation. K time: a measure of speed to reach a certain level of clot strength. Angle a: the rapidity of fibrin build up and cross-linking. MA: maximum strength of the developed clot. *p < 0.05 compared to the corresponding baseline values.
