Coagulation Changes in Trauma Patients

NCT00795743 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2014-05-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Hypothesis to be tested: placement of a central venous catheter will induce a systemic hypercoagulable state. To determine this, the investigators will measure thromboelastography (TEG), PT(prothrombin time), PTT (partial thromboplastin time), Prothrombin Fragment 1.2, Factor VIII, and VonWillebrand's Factor. In addition, duplex ultrasound will be performed to correlate the laboratory coagulation values with functional changes (i.e. deep venous thrombosis).
