Reduced clot strength upon admission, evaluated by thrombelastography (TEG), in trauma patients is independently associated with increased 30-day mortality

Table 3 Prediction of mortality by low clot strength, age and Injury Severity Score

	OR	95% CI	p-value	X²
Injury Severity Score (per point)	1.09	(1.01-1.16)	0.02	6.6
Age (per year)	1.03	(1.00-1.06)	0.09	3.0
Low clot strength (maximal clot strength < 50 mm)	5.00	(1.22-20.45)	0.03	4.8

Multivariable analysis of age, Injury Severity Score and low clot strength (maximal amplitude < 50 mm) with 30-day mortality as dependent variable.
