Battlefield burn study tests plasma vs albumin for better recovery
NCT ID NCT05069922
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether fresh frozen plasma (FFP) works better than albumin for fluid replacement in adults with severe burns covering over 20% of their body. Fifty-nine participants were randomly assigned to receive either FFP or albumin within 8 hours of injury. The goal was to see which fluid reduces the total amount needed and helps correct burn-related blood vessel damage.
