ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
A 2003 landmark study identified the prevalence of eTIC at 28% with a strong association with mortality of 8.9%. Over the last 20 years there have been significant advances in both the fundamental understanding of eTIC and therapeutic interventions.METHODS:
A retrospective cohort study was performed from 2018-2022 on patients ≥18 using prospectively collected data from two level 1 trauma centers and compared to data from 2003. Demographics, laboratory data and clinical outcomes were obtained.RESULTS:
There were 20,107 patients meeting criteria 65% male, 85% blunt, mean age 54 ± 21 years, median injury severity score (ISS) 10 [10, 18]), 8% of patients were hypotensive on arrival, with an all-cause mortality 6.0%. The prevalence of eTIC remained high at 32% in patients with an abnormal PT and 10% with an abnormal PTT, for an overall combined prevalence of 33.4%. Coagulopathy had a major impact on mortality over all injury severity ranges, with the greatest impact with lower ISS. In a hybrid logistic regression/Classification and Regression Trees analysis, coagulopathy was independently associated with a 2.1-fold increased risk of mortality (95% CI 1.5-2.9); the predictive quality of the model was excellent (AUROC 0.932).CONCLUSION:
The presence of eTIC conferred a higher risk of death across all disease severities and was independently associated with a greater risk of death. Biomarkers of coagulopathy associated with eTIC remain strongly predictive of poor outcome despite advances in trauma care.
