coagulation: Data from a clinical study of three sets of extracorporeal circulation in heart-lung machines

Description

Three sets of extracorporeal circulation in heart-lung machines: treatments H and B, and standard S. Twelve (S and H each) and eleven (B) male adult patients have been considered. The analysis is based on a set of laboratory parameters restricted to the blood coagulation system, characterized by three primary endpoints (each as quotient from post- and pre-surgery values). Higher values indicate a better treatment effect. For more details, see Kropf et al. (2000).
