Why is serum calcium important to draw in the ED for the patient who is exsanguinating? If someone is on anti-platelets or anticoagulants what is the best strategy to ensure the docs in the ED know what to give and how much? What should be the lab resuscitation targets? How do we mitigate the risk of hypothermia? When and how much TXA?

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.”

Not so much for the patient but it’s one of those ones that is niche enough to not have been picked up via the usual filters of ED, medical team to the ward.

Bradykinin Mediated Plasma globulins called kininogens release bradykinin and cause vascular permeability.

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.
