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.
