Abstract:Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) etiology in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is multifactorial. The use of global assays of hemostasis as thrombin generation test (TGT) is useful to individualize VTE risk in adult patients. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate the usefulness of an automated TGT to evaluate VTE risk during ALL treatment in children.
Methods: TGT (automated analyzer ST Genesia; ThromboScreen) and pro and anticoagulant plasma proteins were analyzed dur… Show more
