Does a Simple Blood Gas Analysis and the Clinical Impression Predict Trauma-Induced Coagulopathy?

Hamostaseologie

January 2025

Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Husum Hospital, Husum, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

Objectives:  Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is common in severely injured patients and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Method:  The association of two parameters of blood gas analysis (hemoglobin [Hb], base excess [BE]) with standard coagulation tests (SCTs) and rotational thrombelastometry (ROTEM) using the database of the TraumaRegister DGU between 2015 and 2022 was studied. In a stepwise approach, the occurrence of a TIC, the correlations between Hb/BE levels and SCT, as well as ROTEM were calculated respectively.
