Average PRBC use was 7.2 ± 6.6 units and fresh frozen plasma use 4.3 ± 5.2 units. Thirty-nine percent (25/64) had a pelvic ring injury or acetabular fracture. Thirty-seven percent (24/64) had at least one femoral shaft fracture. Twenty patients had a total of 23 tibia fractures. Conclusions: Orthopaedic trauma patients consume the majority of the blood products <24 hours among blunt trauma patients. This resource-intensive group requires frequent urgent surgical interventions and intensive care unit admission.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:55:50 AEDT ]]> Acute transfusion practice during trauma resuscitation: who, when, where and why? https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20178 110 g/l). Conclusion: The prospective evaluation of acutely transfused trauma patients showed a distinct pattern of transfusion triggers as the patient passes from ED to the OT and arrives to the ICU. The conventional transfusion trigger (haemoglobin level) is not appropriate in ET as early transfusion triggers are based on vital signs, blood gas results, injury patterns and anticipated major bleeding.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:51:40 AEDT ]]> Association between Blood Donor Demographics and Post-injury Multiple Organ Failure after Polytrauma https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50236 Mon 10 Jul 2023 14:50:01 AEST ]]> A review of electronic medical records and safe transfusion practice for guideline development https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49116 Fri 05 May 2023 11:39:32 AEST ]]> The epidemiology of overtransfusion of red cells in trauma resuscitation patients in the context of a mature massive transfusion protocol https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39971 Fri 01 Jul 2022 09:16:31 AEST ]]>
