    Thromboelastography (TEG) combined with standard coagulation tests improves diagnostic effectiveness for postoperative DVT after cerebrovascular surgery.

  • 2

    In a cohort of 187 patients, the incidence of postoperative DVT was 46.5%, with older age and hypertension being significant risk factors.

  • 3

    The study identified independent predictors for DVT, including age, TEG Angle, D-dimer levels, and hypertension, using multivariable logistic regression.

  • 4

    ROC curve analysis showed the combined diagnostic model had an AUC of 0.836, indicating high specificity and sensitivity for DVT detection.

  • 5

    The integration of TEG metrics enhances risk reclassification and supports targeted anticoagulation strategies in postoperative care.
