Can a 5-Minute blood test save trauma patients from unnecessary treatment?

This study looks at whether a quick bedside test can measure fibrinogen levels in trauma patients with severe bleeding within minutes, instead of the usual 30-45 minutes. Fibrinogen helps blood clot, and low levels can worsen bleeding. The test is being checked for feasibility and whether it could help doctors decide who really needs fibrinogen replacement. About 150 adults with major trauma will be enrolled, and no treatment decisions will be based on the test results yet.
