Thrombosis in spinal cord injury

Thrombosis in spinal cord injury

Some traditional coagulation assays and several new molecular markers of hemostatic activation were measured in 37 patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Twenty one of the patients (57%) developed deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The radiofibrinogen uptake test (RFUT) was used to diagnose DVT. Thirty ei...

Zusammenfassung:Some traditional coagulation assays and several new molecular markers of hemostatic activation were measured in 37 patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Twenty one of the patients (57%) developed deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The radiofibrinogen uptake test (RFUT) was used to diagnose DVT. Thirty eight percent of quadriplegic and 88% of paraplegic patients developed DVT (p
