D-dimer/fibrinogen ratio for the prediction of progressive hemorrhagic injury after traumatic brain injury

摘要

Background: Progressive hemorrhagic injury (PHI) greatly affects prognosis of traumatic brain injury (TBI). D-dimer/fibrinogen ratio (D/F ratio) may be a potential predictor for venous thromboembolism. This study sought to describe and evaluate any relationship between D/F ratio and PHI after TBI.
