“…13,136 Findings for indicated coagulation studies were reported as abnormal in 3.4 -29.1% of cases (N ϭ 4 studies). 183,[185][186][187] Changes in clinical management were not reported. The incidence of routine coagulation study abnormalities in patients scheduled for regional anesthesia or postoperative analgesia in surgical patients has not been reported.…”

PRACTICE advisories are systematically developed reports that are intended to assist decision-making in areas of patient care where scientific evidence is insufficient to develop an evidence-based model. Practice advisories provide a synthesis of opinion from experts, open forums, and other public sources. Practice advisories report the current state of scientific literature, but are not supported by literature to the same degree as standards or guidelines due to the lack of sufficient numbers of adequately controlled studies.Advisories are not intended as guidelines, standards, or absolute requirements. The use of practice advisories cannot guarantee any specific outcome. They may be adopted, modified, or rejected according to clinical needs and constraints. Practice advisories are subject to periodic revision as warranted by the evolution of medical knowledge, technology, and practice.

“…Los exámenes de coagulación tomados de manera rutinaria en pacientes que se someterán a un procedimiento quirúrgico se encuentran alterados en un 0,8-22% de los casos 1,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] ; sin embargo, estas alteraciones sólo generan cambios en el manejo clínico en un 1,1-4% de los casos 10,11,23,24 . En pacientes que tienen indicadas las pruebas de coagulación por una historia clínica exhaustiva, se encontraron anomalías en el 3,4-29% 1,[25][26][27] , que son valores muy similares a la prevalencia de anomalías en los exámenes que son tomados de manera rutinaria.…”
