The Effect of Dexmedetomidine on Blood Coagulation: In Vitro, Volunteer Study Using Rotational Thromboelastometry

Dexmedetomidine may alter whole blood coagulation. However, little is known about the dose-response relationships according to the blood concentration of dexmedetomidine. The investigators have therefore performed the present study to measure the effect of dexmedetomidine on the coagulation pathway according to the drug concentration level using a rotational thromboelastometry test.
