[Bleeding time in patients with chronic liver diseases].
In 105 patients with chronic liver diseases, bleeding time was studied by Ivy method. A statistically significant difference was found in the bleeding time between patients with chronic hepatitis and controlled cirrhosis and patients with uncontrolled cirrhosis. In 10 out of 26 patients with prolonged bleeding time with platelet count over 100,000/mcl and prothrombin index value over 60%, clinical signs of haemorrhagic diathesis were observed. We believe that the evaluation of platelet function by measuring the bleeding time by Ivy method should enter the set of routine laboratory tests in patients with chronic liver disease.
