Degree of Hypercoagulability and Hyperfibrinolysis is Related to Organ Failure and Prognosis after Burn Trauma
Severely burned patients often present a hypercoagulability situation. However, its magnitude, time course, and relationship with organ failure and outcome remains to be established. Forty-three patients were studied on the first and seventh day after burn for hypercoagulability and fibrinolysis par...

Zusammenfassung: | Severely burned patients often present a hypercoagulability situation. However, its magnitude, time course, and relationship with organ failure and outcome remains to be established. Forty-three patients were studied on the first and seventh day after burn for hypercoagulability and fibrinolysis parameters. A hypercoagulability and hyperfibrinolysis state was found the first day after burn demonstrated by high levels of activated factor VII (VIIa,
