Trauma Induced Coagulopathy and Inflammation

Thromboelastography (TEG) tests for parameters related to efficiency of blood coagulation. The parameters are: reaction time (R value), the K value, the angle and the maximum amplitude (MA)

The computational whole-patient systems model is a multiscale, multi-compartment model whose state-space is defined by a very large and heterogeneous set of variables as well as a large number of input parameters. The model will be integrated in time for various initial trauma conditions in an attempt to determine whether the model can be predictive, and help us discover new variables that are more predictive of clinical outcomes than those employed in current clinical protocols.
