Is it important to det in patients with massive transfusions? Hi, I'm Cecilia Gena from Cincinnati's Children's Hospital, and I think this is an article that you should know about. This is a retrospective study from 2015 to 2018. They evaluated 117 patients from two trauma centers. They compared the tech analysis from the patients who received massive transfusions from those who didn't. And what did they find? They found that patients with massive transfusions had shortened alpha angles, maximum amplitude values, and lower platelet counts. The use of tech may help to identify hemorrhagic red trauma patients that will benefit from cryoprecipitated or platelet transfusions. Check back for more articles that you should know.
