Park MS, et al. - The authors performed this prospective cohort study to identify risk factors for symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) after trauma, including individual plasma coagulome characteristics as reflected by thrombin generation. After trauma, the individual’s plasma coagulome (as reflected by thrombin generation) was seen to be an independent predictor of VTE. In order to stratify acute trauma patients into high and low risk for VTE, clinical characteristics and time to peak height (ttPeak [minutes]) could be used.
