  • Title: Hypothermia-induced coagulopathies in trauma.
    Author: Patt A, McCroskey BL, Moore EE.
    Journal: Surg Clin North Am; 1988 Aug; 68(4):775-85. PubMed ID: 3046005.
    Abstract:
    Hemorrhage accounts for 90 per cent of deaths after abdominal injury, and half of these deaths are secondary to a recalcitrant coagulopathy. This review concentrates on our present knowledge of the role of hypothermia in trauma-related coagulopathies and notes that preventing as well as treating these disorders remains the focus and the challenge of many investigators in the field of trauma.
