The Association of Blood Component Use Ratios With the Survival of Massively Transfused Trauma Patients With and Without Severe Brain Injury

BACKGROUND:The effect of blood component ratios on the survival of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) has not been studied. METHODS:A database of patients transfused in the first 24 hours after admission for injury from 22 Level I trauma centers over an 18-month period was queried to find pa...

Zusammenfassung:BACKGROUND:The effect of blood component ratios on the survival of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) has not been studied. METHODS:A database of patients transfused in the first 24 hours after admission for injury from 22 Level I trauma centers over an 18-month period was queried to find patients who (1) met different definitions of massive transfusion (5 units red blood cell [RBC] in 6 hours vs. 10 units RBC in 24 hours), (2) received high or low ratios of platelets or plasma to RBC units (
