Battlefield blood strategy tested in civilian trauma

NCT ID NCT04431999

Summary

This study tested whether using whole blood from a single donor is as good as the standard method of giving separate bags of red cells, plasma, and platelets for treating life-threatening bleeding after severe injury. It involved 200 adult trauma patients who needed massive blood transfusions. The goal was to see if whole blood works just as well to correct clotting problems and is easier to deliver quickly in emergencies, like mass casualty events.
