Impact of anticoagulation and antiplatelet drugs on surgery rates and mortality in trauma patients
Abstract Preinjury anticoagulation therapy (AT) is associated with a higher risk for major bleeding. We aimed to evaluated the influence of preinjury anticoagulant medication on the clinical course after moderate and severe trauma. Patients in the TraumaRegister DGU ≥ 55 years who received AT were m...
