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. Fibrinogen products may also be needed to stabilize clots and stem bleeding. Cryoprecipitate Group: 25.3% OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.75 to 1.23; p = 0.74 to 1.23; p = 0.74
