Importance of the study of hemostasis and coagulation of thromboembolic diseases
Main Article Content
Abstract
The frequency of the thromboembolic disease is high in our populatíon. Several risk factors have been identified as favoring the development of thrombosis, such as: age, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, immobilization, estro gen therapy, sepsis, cancer, smoking, lipid diets, varicose veins. The ultimate cause of these events is arteriosclerosis in the arteries, phlebitis in the veins, that produce the formation or migration of clots in the circulation due to hypercoagulation , inflammation and lipid metabolic disorders. Even though the clínical features depend on the affected organ the treatment ís the same, consisting in anticoagu1ant therapy. Our results place emphasis in the importance on studdíng the parameters of hypercoagulation. We found Hypercoagulation in 83% of the cases, along or combine with inflammation in 45.5% or lipid metabolic disorders in 45.7%. Further data is stated in the paper
