Abstract:
The liver plays an important role in procoagulant and anticoagulant mechanisms in human body. There are complex changes in hemostasis in patients with liver cirrhosis, with the presence of interaction between the portal venous system and the peripheral system and differences in etiology, and such patients have a dual trend of hemorrhage and thrombosis. At present, there are certain limitations in coagulation function tests commonly used in clinical practice. The primary etiology and results of various coagulation tests should be considered before initiation of anticoagulant therapy for patients with liver cirrhosis, so as to make the best clinical decisions for patients.
