Key Points

To evaluate platelet function and fibrinolysis in dogs with trauma and assess associations with trauma severity.
Prospective evaluation of 20 trauma-affected dogs and 10 healthy controls at a university teaching hospital.
Assessment of platelet function using multiple electrical impedance aggregometry and fibrinolysis using modified thromboelastography.
Severity of trauma evaluated through the Animal Trauma Triage score and clinicopathological markers.
Platelet function and fibrinolysis levels in traumatized dogs were not significantly different from healthy controls.
Calculations revealed a correlation coefficient of -0.496, indicating a relationship but not significant differences.
