Impact of plasma transfusion in trauma patients who do not require massive transfusion.
BACKGROUND For trauma patients requiring massive blood transfusion, aggressive plasma usage has been demonstrated to confer a survival advantage. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of plasma administration in nonmassively transfused patients. STUDY DESIGN Trauma patients admitted to a Level I trauma center (2000-2005) requiring a nonmassive transfusion (<10 U packed RBC [PRBC] w...
متن کاملFIBTEM provides early prediction of massive transfusion in trauma
INTRODUCTION Prediction of massive transfusion (MT) among trauma patients is difficult in the early phase of trauma management. Whole-blood thromboelastometry (ROTEM®) tests provide immediate information about the coagulation status of acute bleeding trauma patients. We investigated their value for early prediction of MT. METHODS This retrospective study included patients admitted to the AUVA...
متن کاملReappraising the concept of massive transfusion in trauma
INTRODUCTION The massive-transfusion concept was introduced to recognize the dilutional complications resulting from large volumes of packed red blood cells (PRBCs). Definitions of massive transfusion vary and lack supporting clinical evidence. Damage-control resuscitation regimens of modern trauma care are targeted to the early correction of acute traumatic coagulopathy. The aim of this study ...
متن کاملMassive transfusion exceeding 50 units of blood products in trauma patients.
BACKGROUND Massive transfusion of blood products in trauma patients can acutely deplete the blood bank. It was hypothesized that, despite a large allocation of resources to trauma patients receiving more than 50 units of blood products in the first 24 hours, outcome data would support the continued practice of massive transfusion. METHODS A retrospective review of charts and registry data of ...
متن کاملEarly versus late recombinant factor VIIa in combat trauma patients requiring massive transfusion.
BACKGROUND Coagulopathy is a consequence of severe trauma, especially in massively transfused patients (>or=10 units of red blood cells in 24 hours), and is associated with increased mortality. We hypothesized that recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) administered to massive transfusion patients before transfusion of 8 units of blood (early) would reduce transfusion requirements compared with rFVII...
