In my thesis, I focus on the haemostatic changes that occur in patients with chronic liver diseases. Specific topics of interest in my thesis include thromboprophylaxis, pro-coagulant prophylaxis and antiplatelet therapy in in patients with cirrhosis. In the poster presented at ISTH, we demonstrate that the haemostatic glycoprotein Von Willebrand Factor accurately predicts mortality in acutely ill patients with cirrhosis.

Presentation(s):
