Abstract
BACKGROUND: Massive transfusion (MT) is traditionally defined as transfusion of more than 10 units of red blood cells (RBCs) within the first 24 h after admission. The aim of this study is to analyze the trend of MT in regional trauma center including ratio of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and packed RBC. METHODS: Retrospective data were driven from 2014 to 2016. A total of 185 patients who received more than 10 packed RBC units within the first 24 h after admission were included in the study. We analyzed transfusion requirements for each time interval 4 h and 24 h after admission. Moreover, we compared transfusion characteristics between survival and non-survival group, between high FFP:RBC group (≥1: 2) and low FFP:RBC group (
