The Effectiveness of a Novel Software Program to Help in ROTEM Interpretation
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess a novel rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM®) interpretation software to determine whether its use improves the accuracy of clinician interpretation.

- Allocation
- N/A
- Intervention Model
- Single Group Assignment
- Intervention Model Description
- The sensitivity/specificity and diagnostic accuracy of clinicians will be compared before and after the use of novel ROTEM app. The performance of more experienced clinicians will be compared to those with little to no experience in ROTEM. Analysis will be done using a mixed effects model to account for clustering of measurements within clinician groups. Inter-rater reliability analysis will be done to assess the similarity within clinician groups using the ICC.
