lüll Transfusion medicine in trauma patients: an update Murthi SB; Stansbury LG; Dutton RP; Edelman BB; Scalea TM; Hess JRExpert Rev Hematol 2011[Oct]; 4 (5): 527-37In 2008, we reviewed the practical interface between transfusion medicine and the surgery and critical care of severely injured patients. Reviewed topics ranged from epidemiology of trauma to patterns of resuscitation to the problems of transfusion reactions. In the interim, trauma specialists have adopted damage control resuscitation and become much more knowledgeable and thoughtful about the use of blood products. This new understanding and the resulting changes in clinical practice have raised new concerns. In this update, we focus on which patients need damage control resuscitation, current views on the optimal form of damage control resuscitation with blood products, the roles of newer blood products, and appropriate transfusion triggers in the postinjury setting. We will also review the role of new technology in patient assessment, therapy and monitoring.|*Blood Transfusion[MESH]|Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation/pathology[MESH]|Erythrocytes/cytology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Resuscitation[MESH]|Trauma Centers[MESH]|Wounds and Injuries/*therapy[MESH] |
