Brief Summary
Primarily due to its logistical advantages The Netherlands Armed Forces (NLAF) have been successfully using deep frozen (-80°C) platelets (DTC) for the treatment of (massive) bleeding trauma patients in austere environments since 2001. However, high-quality evidence for effectiveness and safety in the treatment of these type of patients is currently lacking. The MAssive transfusion of Frozen bloOD (MAFOD) trial is therefore designed to compare the haemostatic effect of DTCs versus room temperature stored platelets (RSP) in the treatment of trauma- and vascular bleeding.
