Coagulation-fibrinolysis Activity is not Accelerated in Patients with Diffuse Axonal Injury

Association Between Serum Electrolyte Disturbances and Glasgow Coma Scale Score in Patients With Diffuse Axonal Injury

Background: Appropriate clinical measures to prevent secondary brain damage in traumatic brain injury are of critical importance. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the relationships between serum electrolyte disturbances and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score in patients with Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) at the time of admission and discharge. Materials & Methods: In this retrospective cr...

Coagulation and fibrinolysis after injury.

mental trauma experienced by caregivers of patients with diffuse axonal injury or severe traumatic brain injury

conclusions a long-term longitudinal study encompassing integrated research is needed to fully understand the traumatic experiences of caregivers. unless research on tbi or dai trauma is given its proper attention, the burden of trauma and injury on societies will continue to exacerbate globally. context as with care giving and rehabilitation in chronic illnesses, the concern with traumatic bra...

Coagulation-fibrinolysis abnormalities in poststroke patients.

We thank Drs Shahar, McGovern, and Spraflca for their interest in our paper in which we demonstrated, inter alia, that low doses of aspirin may not be as efficacious as higher doses. Our sample population was indeed matched, and Shahar et al are correct in pointing out that analysis for data obtained according to a matched design should have been performed. However, it is possible to ignore mat...
