Fig. 2. Study II. Effect of 72 h of citrate storage on TEG^®parameters: Reaction time (r) (A ), coagulation time (k) (B ), angle α (ang α) (C ), maximum amplitude (MA) (D ), clot lysis at 30 min (Ly30) (E ) and clot lysis at 60 min (Ly60) (F ) in native blood (native) and in recalcified citrated blood immediately after mixing (T⁰) and after 1 (T¹), 2 (T²), 4 (T⁴), 8 (T⁸), 24 (T24), 48 (T⁴⁸), and 72 h (T⁷²) of storage. *P < 0.05 compared with T⁰(after Bonferroni correction);P < 0.05 compared with T¹(after Bonferroni correction). P  values indicated relate to overall significance of repeated-measures analysis of variance during storage (T⁰–T⁷²).
