Platelet activation and dysfunction in a large-animal model of traumatic brain injury and hemorrhage
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and hemorrhage are the leading causes of trauma-related mortality. Both TBI and hemorrhage are associated with coagulation disturbances, including platelet dysfunction. We hypothesized that platelet dysfunction could be detected early after injury, and that this dysfunction would be associated with early activation, as measured by circulating levels of platelet activation markers.
