Background: Tissue trauma and hemorrhage result in pronounced activation of the innate immune system. Given known crosstalk between inflammation coagulation, soluble inflammatory mediators could be associated with venous thromboembolisms (VTEs) after major trauma. Objectives : This study aimed to identify plasma that are independent predictors VTE risk patients. Methods: We performed a secondary analysis Pragmatic Randomized Optimal Platelets Plasma Ratios (PROPPR) study. levels 27...
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in trauma patients, despite chemoprophylaxis. Statins have been shown capable acting upon the endothelium. We hypothesized that statin therapy pre- or in-hospital settings leads to decreased incidence VTE.
