Individual clotting factor contributions to mortality following trauma.

ABSTRACT: Acute traumatic coagulopathy affects 20% to 30% of trauma patients, but the extensive collinearity of the coagulation cascade complicates attempts to clarify global clotting factor dysfunction. This study aimed to characterize phenotypes of clotting factor dysfunction and their contributions to mortality after major trauma.This prospective cohort study examines all adult trauma patients of the highest activation level presenting to San Francisco General Hospital between February 2005 and February 2015. Factors II, V, VII, VIII, IX, and X and protein C activity on admission and mortality status at 28 days were assessed. Predictors of 28-day mortality in univariate analysis were included in multiple logistic regression controlling for traumatic brain injury (TBI), acidosis, age, and mechanism of injury. Principal component analysis was utilized to identify phenotypic coagulation.Complete coagulation factor data were available for 876 (61%) of 1,429 patients. In multiple logistic regression, factors V (odds ratio [OR], 0.86; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.76-0.97), VIII (OR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.95-0.99), and X (OR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.68-0.92) and protein C (OR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.05-1.30) significantly predicted 28-day mortality after controlling for age, base deficit, mechanism of injury, and TBI. Principal component analysis identified two significant principal components (Phenotypes 1 and 2) that accounted for 66.3% of the total variance. Phenotype 1 (factors II, VII, IX, and X and protein C abnormalities) explained 49.3% and was associated with increased injury, coagulopathy, TBI, and mortality. Phenotype 2 (factors V and VIII abnormalities) explained 17.0% and was associated with increased coagulopathy, blunt injury, and mortality. Only Phenotype 2 remained significantly associated with 28-day mortality in multiple logistic regression.Principal component analysis identified two distinct phenotypes within the entirety of global clotting factor abnormalities, and these findings substantiate the crucial association of factors V and VIII on mortality following trauma. This may be the first step toward identifying unique phenotypes after injury and personalizing hemostatic resuscitation.Prognostic study, level III.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Improved understanding of the relationship between patient age and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) development and mortality following traumatic injury may help facilitate generation of new hypotheses about ARDS pathophysiology and the role of novel treatments to improve outcomes across the age spectrum. METHODS:We conducted a retrospective cohort study of trauma patients included in the National Trauma Data Bank who were admitted to an intensive care unit from 2007 to 2016. We determined ARDS incidence and mortality across eight age groups for the entire 10-year study period and by year. We used generalized linear Poisson regression models adjusted for underlying mortality risk (injury mechanism, Injury Severity Score, admission Glasgow Coma Scale score, admission heart rate, and admission hypotension). RESULTS:Acute respiratory distress syndrome occurred in 3.1% of 1,297,190 trauma encounters. Acute respiratory distress syndrome incidence was lowest among pediatric patients and highest among adults aged 35 to 64 years. Acute respiratory distress syndrome mortality was highest among patients 80 years or older (43.9%), followed by 65 to 79 years (30.6%) and 4 years or younger (25.3%). The relative risk of mortality associated with ARDS was highest among the pediatric age groups, with an adjusted relative risk (aRR) of 2.06 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.72-2.70) among patients 4 years or younger compared with an aRR of 1.51 (95% CI, 1.42-1.62) for the entire cohort. Acute respiratory distress syndrome mortality increased over the 10-year study period (aRR, 1.03 per year; 95% CI, 1.02-1.05 per year), whereas all-cause mortality decreased (aRR, 0.98 per year; 95% CI, 0.98-0.99 per year). CONCLUSIONS:While ARDS development following traumatic injury was most common in middle-aged adults, patients 4 years or younger and 65 years or older with ARDS experienced the highest burden of mortality. Children 4 years or younger were disproportionately affected by ARDS relative to their low underlying mortality following trauma that was not complicated by ARDS. Acute respiratory distress syndrome-associated mortality following trauma has worsened over the past decade, emphasizing the need for new prevention and treatment strategies.

Project description:Hemophilia A and B are bleeding disorders caused by a deficiency of clotting factor VIII and IX, respectively. Patients with severe hemophilia (< 0.01 IU mL-1) and some patients with moderate hemophilia (0.01-0.05 IU mL-1) administer clotting factor concentrates prophylactically. Desmopressin (D-amino D-arginine vasopressin) can be applied in patients with non-severe hemophilia A. The aim of administration of factor concentrates or desmopressin is the prevention or cessation of bleeding. Despite weight-based dosing, it has been demonstrated that factor concentrates still exhibit considerable pharmacokinetic variability. Population pharmacokinetic analyses, in which this variability is quantified and explained, are increasingly performed in hemophilia research. These analyses can assist in the identification of important patient characteristics and can be applied to perform patient-tailored dosing. This review aims to present and discuss the population pharmacokinetic analyses that have been conducted to develop population pharmacokinetic models describing factor levels after administration of factor VIII or factor IX concentrates or D-amino D-arginine vasopressin. In total, 33 publications were retrieved from the literature. Two approaches were applied to perform population pharmacokinetic analyses, the standard two-stage approach and non-linear mixed-effect modeling. Using the standard two-stage approach, four population pharmacokinetic models were established describing factor VIII levels. In the remaining 29 analyses, the non-linear mixed-effect modeling approach was applied. NONMEM was the preferred software to establish population pharmacokinetic models. In total, 18 population pharmacokinetic analyses were conducted on the basis of data from a single product. From all available population pharmacokinetic analyses, 27 studies also included data from pediatric patients. In the majority of the population pharmacokinetic models, the population pharmacokinetic parameters were allometrically scaled using actual body weight. In this review, the available methods used for constructing the models, key features of these models, patient population characteristics, and established covariate relationships are described in detail.
