Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • SOFA Score - 5 days

    Evaluation of the SOFA score along the first 5 days after the patient admission.

    5 days

Study Arms (2)

Blood Products only.

EXPERIMENTAL

This arm will receive 1:1:1 Red blood cells : Fresh Frozen Plasma : Platelets upon a major trauma triggers. 1:1:1 Ratio for packs of blood products. The patient will be re-evaluated every hour again for the major bleeding triggers and another 1:1:1 intervention may or may not occur.

Other: Blood Products only

Point of care guided

EXPERIMENTAL

This arm will receive Red blood cells, Human Fibrinogen and Prothrombinic complex concentrates (PCC) based on thromboelastometry. The dosis of each drug will be determined by the analyses of the thromboelastometry curves.

Other: Point of Care guided

Interventions

Based solely on massive transfusion triggers Patients with traumatic hemorrhage that fulfil the inclusion criteria will receive blood products by prescription of the patient's anesthesiologist. The patient will be constantly observed and bleeding triggers will be reassessed hourly.

Also known as: Red blood cells, Platelets, Fresh frozen plasma
Blood Products only.

Based on massive transfusion triggers and thromboelastometry Patients with traumatic hemorrhage that fulfil the inclusion criteria will receive the drugs guided by the results of the thromboelastometry. The dosis of each drug will be based on the analysis of the thromboelastometry curves (established algorithm).
