Protein C Depletion Early After Trauma Increases the Risk of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia
2009
Introduction:Mechanically ventilated trauma patients have a high risk for the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). We have recently reported that reduced plasma protein C (PC) levels early after trauma/shock are associated with coagulopathy and mortality. Furthermore, trauma patient
