Defined by International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) as the following spaces: intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular, retroperitoneal, intra-articular or pericardial, or intramuscular with compartment syndrome.
Defined by ISTH as bleeding causing a drop in hemoglobin ≥2g/dL or leading to a transfusion of at least 2 units of red blood cells.
