Most major hemorrhage protocols give a balanced transfusion of PRBCs, FFP, and platelets in ratios approaching concentrations found in whole blood. Paper: Davenport R et al. References: Davenport R et al. Fibrinogen products may also be needed to stabilize clots and stem bleeding. Cryoprecipitate Group: 25.3% to 1.23; p = 0.74

A 37-year-old G5P4 at 33 weeks presents to the ED after being brought in by ambulance. We’ll keep it short, while you keep that EM brain sharp. She had a precipitous delivery while the ambulance was pulling in. The newborn is doing well, but the mother is complaining of shortness of breath and chest pain.

Fresh frozen plasma, or FFP, should only be given to cirrhotic patients as part of the massive transfusion protocol in cases of profound hypotension, as “patients with cirrhosis rarely have true enzymatic hypocoagulability, and FFP may worsen bleeding due to over-resuscitation and dilution of coagulation factors.” Am J Emerg Med.

All you know, back in ED, is that the ETA is 10 minutes, and there is a single stab wound to the chest. The ODP is caught up leaving theatres and has not yet made it down to ED. a) A balanced ratio of 1:1:1 (platelets: FFP: packed red cells) The PROPPR trial showed us that balanced ratios are important. The trauma call goes out.
