@entity1003 in @entity1 with @entity932 or @entity131 ( @entity131 ) is associated with clinical deterioration and worse outcome. Whole blood viscoelastic haemostatic assays, like thrombelastography ( @entity17792 ), might aid conventional coagulation assays in identification of @entity1 with worse prognosis. We performed a review of @entity1 (totalling 78 @entity1 ) with primary acute @entity932 or @entity131 admitted to a neurointensive care unit (NICU) for more than 24 h during a period of 9 months, who had @entity17792 analysis performed at admission. Primary outcome was all-cause 30-day mortality, whereas decline in Glasgow @entity772 Scale (GCS) score at 24 h after admission or @entity204 due to cerebral incarceration were secondary outcomes. @entity1 were defined as hypocoaguable if @entity17792 reaction time was more than 8 min, angle less than 55   and/or maximal amplitude less than 51 mm. @entity1 were defined hypocoaguable according to conventional coagulation assays if international normalized ratio was more than 1.3, platelet counts less than 100 10/l and/or activated partial thromboplastine time more than 35 s. Eight @entity1 were hypocoaguable by @entity17792 on admission to NICU and had higher 30-day mortality (63% vs. 16%, P=0.008), more often declined in GCS (57% vs. 16%, P=0.02) and expired due to cerebral incarceration (50% vs. 6%, P=0.02). Hypocoagulability by @entity17792 , lower admission GCS and @entity510 were independently associated with higher 30-day mortality [ @entity17792 : odds ratio (OR) 14.8 (2.2-100.1), P=0.006; GCS: OR 1.3 (1.1-1.5), P=0.006; @entity510 : OR: 5.3 (1.3-22.3), P=0.02]. Only two @entity1 were hypocoaguable by both conventional coagulation assays and @entity17792 . The current data indicate that hypocoagulability by @entity17792 at admission to NICU predicts worse prognosis. Low concordance with conventional coagulation assays indicates that @entity17792 might be valuable in identifying @entity1 with clinically relevant @entity1003 .
