Original Source: Maize- or potato-derived hydroxyethyl starches: is there any thromboelastometric difference?
Background: Hydroxyethyl starches (HES) could differ with regard to the origin, and the influence on the coagulation of the raw material is unknown. This study compared the effects of a new potato-derived HES with a maize-derived HES and two crystalloid solutions. Methods: Whole blood from 10 healthy individuals was diluted by 20% and 40% using either non-balanced potato-derived HES 130/0.42/6 : 1, non-balanced maize-derived HES 130/0.4/9 : 1, isotonic saline or Ringer's lactate solution. Samples we...
