Résumé

Major trauma results in dramatic changes in platelet behavior. Newly-formed platelets are more reactive than older platelets, but their contributions to hemostasis and thrombosis after severe injury have not been previously evaluated. To determine the relationship between immature platelet metrics and plasma thrombopoietin with clinical outcomes after major injury. Prospective observational cohort study of adult trauma patients. Platelet counts and the immature platelet fraction (IPF) were measured at admission, 24 hours, 72 hours and 7 days post-injury. Thromboelastometry was performed at admission. Plasma thrombopoietin, c-Mpl and GPIbα were quantified in a separate cohort. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality; secondary outcomes were venous thromboembolic events (VTE) and multiple organ dysfunction (MODS). On admission, immature platelet counts (IPC) were significantly lower in non-survivors (n=40) compared to survivors (n=236; 7.3x10 Lower levels of immature platelets in the acute phase after major injury are associated with increased mortality, whereas higher immature platelet levels at later timepoints may predispose to thrombosis and multiple organ dysfunction.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Major trauma results in dramatic changes in platelet behavior. Newly-formed platelets are more reactive than older platelets, but their contributions to hemostasis and thrombosis after severe injury have not been previously evaluated.
OBJECTIVES OBJECTIVE
To determine the relationship between immature platelet metrics and plasma thrombopoietin with clinical outcomes after major injury.
METHODS METHODS
Prospective observational cohort study of adult trauma patients. Platelet counts and the immature platelet fraction (IPF) were measured at admission, 24 hours, 72 hours and 7 days post-injury. Thromboelastometry was performed at admission. Plasma thrombopoietin, c-Mpl and GPIbα were quantified in a separate cohort. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality; secondary outcomes were venous thromboembolic events (VTE) and multiple organ dysfunction (MODS).
RESULTS RESULTS
On admission, immature platelet counts (IPC) were significantly lower in non-survivors (n=40) compared to survivors (n=236; 7.3x10
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Lower levels of immature platelets in the acute phase after major injury are associated with increased mortality, whereas higher immature platelet levels at later timepoints may predispose to thrombosis and multiple organ dysfunction.
