Utility of Thromboelastography in Detecting NOAC-Related Coagulopathy in Traumatic Brain Injury.

Introduction: Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have gained popularity as a vitamin K antagonist alternative without regular monitoring. There has been an increase in elderly patients on NOACs admitted for traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of thromboelastography (TEG) in detecting NOAC-related coagulopathy among TBI patients.
