SUMMARY Exsanguination is a leading cause of early death following traumatic injury. Protocol-driven transfusion strategies that approach a 1:1:1 [packed red blood cell (PRBC), fresh frozen plasma (FFP), and platelet (PLT)] ratio in patients who require massive transfusion improve patient survival, reduce hospital / intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, decrease ventilator days, and reduce patient care costs.
RECOMMENDATIONS
? Level 1 Recombinant factor VIIa may reduce blood product administration, but does not improve survival.
? Level 2 Administer blood products in a ratio of 1:1:1 (PRBC:FFP:PLT). In patients requiring massive transfusion of blood products, minimize crystalloid resuscitation to prevent dilutional coagulopathy. Platelet transfusions are indicated in the following situations: Neurosurgical procedures with PLT count ................
