Application of the Liver Maximum Function Capacity Test in Acute Liver Failure: A Helpful Tool for Decision-Making in Liver Transplantation?

<div>ALF also was observed performing pretransplant rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM): ExTem clotting time (CT-Ex) was significantly prolonged (157 s) and maximum clot firmness in ExTEM (MCF-Ex) and FibTEM (MCF-Fib) reduced (20 and 3 mm, resp.). In line with the LiMAx-test, blood coagulation continuously recovered in the course of transplantation (CT-Ex of 51 s, MCF-Ex of 76 mm, and MCF-Fib of 37 mm at postoperative day 10, resp.).</div>
