its utility in guiding blood product transfusions. Methods A case scenario will be discussed …

Burn-induced coagulopathy is not well understood, and consensus on diagnosis,
prevention, and treatments are lacking. In this review, literature on burn-induced (and …

Background A severe mismatch between the supply and demand of oxygen is the common
feature of all types of shock. We present a newly developed, clinically oriented classification …

Severe burn injury is associated with systemic coagulopathy. The changes in coagulation
described in patients with severe burns resemble those found patients with sepsis or major …

Background Severely burned patients often suffer white blood cell and platelet drop
following the injury. Though coagulopathy after burn injury have been reported, the …

Major burn patients (MBP) can present multifactorial coagulation alterations induced by
trauma and endothelial damage, fluid replacement therapy, hypothermia, hypoperfusion …

Introduction Hypothermia, acidaemia and coagulopathy in trauma is associated with
