Bleeding and thromboembolism after traumatic brain injury in the elderly: a real conundrum.
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the incidence of bleeding, recurrent traumatic brain injury (TBI), and thromboembolic (TE) events after an initial TBI in older adults and to identify which factors contribute to this risk. The researchers found that, among Medicare patients hospitalized with TBI, the incidence of TE events was significantly higher than that of bleeding or recurrent TBI. They identified specific risk factors of bleeding and TE events, which may guide care of older adults after TBI.

Risk factors for venous thromboembolism in pediatric trauma patients and validation of a novel scoring system: the risk of clots in kids with trauma score.
The researchers identified risk factors for venous thromboembolism and developed venous thromboembolism risk assessment models for pediatric trauma patients. They found that venous thromboembolism is infrequent after trauma in pediatric patients, and they developed weighted scoring systems to stratify pediatric trauma patients at risk.
