OBJECTIVE To identify patterns of errors contributing to inpatient trauma deaths. METHODS All inpatient trauma deaths at a high-volume level I trauma center from 1996 to 2004 inclusive were… (More)

An FFP: PRBC transfusion ratio >/=1:1.5 is associated with a lower risk of mortality after massive transfusion.

Jason Lee Sperry, Juan B. Ochoa, +8 authors Ernest Eugene Moore
The Journal of trauma
2008

OBJECTIVE The detrimental effects of coagulopathy, hypothermia, and acidosis are well described as markers for mortality after traumatic hemorrhage. Recent military experience suggests that a high… (More)
