Abstract
Assessment of bleeding time (BT), clotting time (CT), and ABO blood groups holds significant clinical relevance, particularly in the context of various conditions like thrombosis, epistaxis, and cardiac surgery. However, the existing literature presents contradictory findings concerning the correlation between bleeding time, clotting time, and the ABO blood groups. Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to investigate and elucidate the potential associations between bleeding time and clotting time across the four ABO blood groups in surgical patients.
