[Hemoglobin-oriented and coagulation factor-based algorithm : Effect on transfusion needs and standardized mortality rate in massively transfused trauma patients].

CONCLUSION: The SOP based on coagulation factor values and standardized clotting therapy showed a clear trend to reduction of the SMR in massively transfused trauma patients. On the other hand the SOP achieved a significant reduction in the transfusion requirements and a significant improvement in the hemostatic results in the most severely injured patients. This can be interpreted as an effective use of coagulation factors in the early hospital treatment of trauma patients with ongoing bleeding. PMID: 26453580 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
