Popis: Essentials TEG‐guided therapy has been shown to be valuable in a number of surgical settings.This systematic review and analysis specifically evaluated the effects of TEG‐guided therapy.TEG‐guided therapy can improve blood product utilization and enhance resource management.Use of TEG improved key patient outcomes, including bleed rate, length of stay and mortality. Background Thromboelastography (TEG 5000 and 6s Thrombelastograph Hemostasis Analyzer; Haemonetics) is a point‐of‐care system designed to monitor and analyze the entire coagulation process in real time. TEG‐guided therapy has been shown to be valuable in a variety of surgical settings. Objective To conduct an analysis of published clinical trials to evaluate the effects of TEG‐guided transfusion for the management of perioperative bleeding on patient outcomes. Patients/Methods We searched MEDLINE (PubMed) and EMBASE for original articles reporting studies using TEG vs controls in a perioperative setting for inclusion in this systematic review. We identified nine eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in two elective surgery settings (cardiac surgery and liver surgery), but only one RCT in the emergency setting. Results In the elective surgery study meta‐analysis, platelet (P = 0.004), plasma (P
