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.” Crit Care Med.

a) A balanced ratio of 1:1:1 (platelets: FFP: packed red cells) The PROPPR trial showed us that balanced ratios are important. This was a randomised controlled multisite study comparing resuscitation of trauma patients requiring massive transfusion using either 1:1::1 or 1:1:2 ratios of platelets to plasma to red blood cells.
