Abstract
The spread of cardiovascular pathology has brought its directives in the treatment of diseases. Currently, drugs from the groups of antiaggregants and new oral anticoagulants are widely used. Drugs belonging to the group of vitamin K antagonists do not lose their importance in the treatment of cardiological patients. Monitoring the treatment of these patients requires improvement of modern diagnostic technologies. A conventional coagulogram has now been replaced by a more modern method of diagnosing hemostasis disorders – thromboelastometry (TEM). TEM, unlike a standard coagulogram, enables to evaluate all the links of hemostasis in a limited period of time. This article presents a clinical case of poisoning with a drug from the anticoagulants group – warfarin and an example of using thromboelastometry in the diagnosis of this coagulopathy.
