Acute traumatic coagulopathy (trauma associated coagulopathy) is a severe coagulopathy that can occur following acute trauma. In fact in people, coagulation abnormalities are present in up to 34% of major trauma victims at the time of hospital presentation, and what’s more, it is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.
So what causes it? Does it exist in dogs and cats? Do we need to worry?
Join Dr Philip Judge as we take a look at available literature on this interesting phenomenon in both humans and in dogs and cats!
This free webinar starts at 19:30 AEDT on February 8, 2022.
