NCT05502809

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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of patients that achieved haemostasis and show signs of life.

    Achieved haemostasis (yes/no) as defined a patient no further require erythrocyte transfusions for two hours;

    At six hours
