Polytraumatized patients develop complex changes in blood coagulation and fibrinolysis even before their arrival at the emergency room (ER). Hemostaseological parameters (i.e. antithrombine 3, alpha-2-antiplasmine, D-dimers) obtained upon admission however, permit advance differentiation of later mortality vs. survival and of possible future secondary organ failure with varying specification.
