Significats de massive transfusion en anglès

Results: A total of 324 subjects met the definition of massive transfusion.

Background: Cardiac surgery is the most common setting for massive transfusion in medically advanced countries.

We investigated efficacy during massive transfusion (MT) in general hospitalized patients.

Conclusion: End-tidal carbon dioxide is a novel prehospital predictor of mortality and massive transfusion after injury.

We hypothesized that prehospital ETCO2 values will be predictive of mortality and need for massive transfusion following injury.

Exposure: Patients had to either receive a massive transfusion or require the activation of the institutional massive transfusion protocol.

Studies of massive transfusion after injury suggest that the ratios of administered plasma and platelets (PLT) to red blood cells (RBCs) affect mortality.

Our data suggest that arterial sampling is essential during massive transfusions.

Methods: Massive transfusion was defined as those who had ≥6 RBC units or ≥8 total blood components.

Four of the patients received whole blood with 2 receiving over 10 units of blood or massive transfusions.

Warm fresh whole blood (WFWB) has been used for trauma patients with life-threatening hemorrhage necessitating massive transfusions in the Okinawa Islands, Japan.
