Effects of Hemoperitoneum Driven Carbon Monoxide on Post-Traumatic Stability and Platelet Aggregation

Effects of Hemoperitoneum Driven Carbon Monoxide on Post-Traumatic Stability

• Status: Completed
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 9 (actual)
• Sponsor: The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio · Academic / Other
• Sex: Female
• Age: 18 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

Our objective is to determine whether or not the presence of hemoperitoneum in trauma patients is associated with increased Carbon Monoxide (CO) formation, and to determine if elevated Carbon Monoxide levels are associated with cardiovascular depression, impaired platelet aggregation, and/or multiple organ failure.
