Agentes del antifibrinolítico en hemorragia traumática

Tim Coats, Beverley Hunt, Ian Roberts, Haleema Shakur

Resumen

For people berween the ages of 5 and 45, trauma is second only to HIV/AIDS as a cause of death. Every year, over three million people worldwide, die as a result of trauma, many after reaching hospital (1). Among trauma patients who do survive and reach hospital, exsanguination is a common cause of death, accounting for nearly half of in-hospital trauma deaths (2). Central nervous system injury and multi-organ failure account for most of the remainder, both of which can be exacerbated by severe bleeding (3).
