CSMLS Virtual Events
Keeping you up-to-date and connected to your profession.
CSMLS Virtual events are interactive, connecting people sharing an online environment at a specific date and time, rather than meeting in a physical location.
You’ll get all the valuable education from subject matter experts and connect with like-minded people from the comfort of your own home or lab, without the added cost of travel and accommodations.
All past Virtual Events are available as on-demand webinars in the CSMLS Learning Centre.
Note: On-demand webinars are available in English only.

Viscoelastometry, TEG and ROTEM - A Comprehensive History and Current Updates
March 5 | 12 PM - 1 PM (ET)
Viscoelastometry was first developed nearly 80 years ago in Europe as a surgical bedside whole blood testing method in some of the world's first human organ transplants. Currently, the TEG and ROTEM instruments are being used widely throughout Canada and the world as a point-of-care method that measures a surgical patient's complete coagulation capabilities. This presentation will outline the history and development of the viscoelastometry instruments that are used today to provide rapid, real-time coagulation results and optimize the utilization of blood products for patients undergoing major surgery.
At the end of this session you will be able to:
- Outline the history of viscoelastometry testing methods and their clinical utilities
- Describe the testing parameters and units of measurement used in viscoelastometry testing
- List the most current viscoelastometry testing equipment being developed for clinical use
