The nice
people at Transfusion News sent their update today… As always a manageable amount
of information for my poor brain to take in.
Trauma Endotypes and Transfusion Resuscitation Strategies  | | May 24, 2023 | | In
2015 results from the Pragmatic, Randomized Optimal Platelet and Plasma
Ratios (PROPPR) trial suggested that a 1:1:1 ratio of plasma to
platelets to RBCs was best for severely bleeding trauma patients to
achieve hemostasis, but no differences were observed in mortality. Most
trauma centers now use a 1:1:1 ratio of blood products. [Read More] |

cardiovascular disease since pre-menopausal women have a lower risk of
heart disease than men or post-menopausal women. [Read More] |

levels are important for many aspects of clinical care from evaluating
the incompatibility of transfusions and transplants to determining
certain diagnoses such as hemolytic reactions. Although no gold standard
exists to determine antibody levels, the majority of assays depend on
titration and grading the strength of agglutination, which has been
performed manually and is operator dependent. [Read More] |
