SOP FOR MASSIVE TRANSFUSION PROTOCOL
"massive transfusion protocol" hemorrhage management
| Condition | Trigger |
|---|---|
| Severe hypotension | SBP <70 mmHg |
| Moderate hypotension + tachycardia | SBP 71-90 mmHg AND HR >108 bpm |

| Shipment | PRBCs | FFP | Platelets | Cryoprecipitate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack 1 | 4 units | 2 units | - | - |
| Pack 2 | 4 units | 2 units | 1 unit (apheresis) | 10 units pooled |
| TEG Parameter | Threshold | Action |
|---|---|---|
| rapidTEG-ACT | >128 sec | 2 units FFP (thawed plasma) |
| Angle (alpha) | <65-66° | 10 units pooled cryoprecipitate |
| MA (maximum amplitude) | <55 mm | 1 unit apheresis platelets |
| LY30 / EPL | ≥10% / >9% | Tranexamic acid 1 g IV |
| Product | Notes |
|---|---|
| Type O, Rh-negative PRBCs | Universal; preferred for females of childbearing age when type unknown |
| Type AB FFP | Universal plasma |
| Thawed/Liquid plasma | No thawing required; available within minutes; use within 5 days of donation |
| Whole blood | Supplies all elements in one unit; use O low-titre whole blood; no universally compatible type |
| Cryoprecipitate | Concentrated source of fibrinogen, Factor VIII, vWF, Factor XIII |
| Platelets | Apheresis preferred; transfuse after surgical bleeding control when possible |
Whole blood resuscitation is increasingly supported. A 2024 EAST Practice Management Guideline (meta-analysis) found evidence supporting whole blood for injured patients requiring transfusion. [PMID: 38531812]
HYPOTHERMIA
/ \
/ \
ACIDOSIS ---- COAGULOPATHY
| Factor | Target | Management |
|---|---|---|
| Hypothermia | Core temp >35°C | Warm IV fluids, blood warmers, Bair Hugger, warm blankets, heated ventilation; arteriovenous rewarming for temp <30°C |
| Acidosis | pH >7.2, Base excess >-6 | Haemorrhage control, restore perfusion; citrate from banked blood metabolised to bicarbonate by liver |
| Coagulopathy | INR <1.5, Fibrinogen >200 | Balanced blood product resuscitation, TXA, cryoprecipitate, avoid crystalloid dilution |
| Principle | Detail |
|---|---|
| Permissive hypotension | Target SBP 80-90 mmHg (MAP ~60 mmHg) until definitive haemorrhage control; avoids "popping the clot". NOT used in concurrent TBI |
| Minimise crystalloid | Avoid large-volume NS or Hartmann's; causes dilutional coagulopathy, hypothermia, and oedema |
| Early blood products | Use PRBCs, FFP, and platelets as the primary resuscitation fluid |
| Early haemorrhage control | OR / IR / endovascular intervention as rapidly as possible |
| Coagulopathy correction | TXA, PCC, FFP, cryoprecipitate as guided by TEG/ROTEM or conventional labs |
| Parameter | Target |
|---|---|
| Hb/Hct | Hb >7-8 g/dL (note: underestimates true loss in acute haemorrhage) |
| Platelet count | >50,000/µL (>100,000 if TBI) |
| INR/PT | <1.5x control |
| APTT | <1.5x control |
| Fibrinogen | >100-200 mg/dL |
| Ionised calcium | >0.9 mmol/L |
| Base excess | >-6 mEq/L |
| Core temperature | >35°C |
| pH | >7.2 |
| K⁺ (potassium) | Monitor closely - stored blood can cause hyperkalaemia |
| Complication | Cause | Management |
|---|---|---|
| Dilutional coagulopathy | Crystalloid and pRBC dilution of clotting factors | Balanced product ratio, cryoprecipitate, FFP |
| Thrombocytopenia | Dilutional; stored blood has no viable platelets | Platelet transfusion; obtain count after >5 units |
| Hypothermia | Cold products, vasoconstriction | Blood warmer, warming devices |
| Hypocalcaemia | Citrate chelation from stored blood | CaCl₂ 1 g IV; monitor ionised calcium |
| Hyperkalaemia | Stored blood K⁺ leakage | Monitor electrolytes; ECG surveillance |
| Metabolic alkalosis | Citrate → bicarbonate (hepatic metabolism) | Monitor; usually self-limiting |
| Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) | Donor antibodies | Supportive; use male-donor or screened FFP |
| Acute haemolytic reaction | ABO incompatibility | Stop transfusion; supportive care |
| DIC | Consumptive; tissue injury, sepsis, burns | FFP, cryoprecipitate, treat underlying cause |
| Citrate toxicity | Rapid infusion or liver failure | CaCl₂; monitor in hepatic impairment |
| Population | Modification |
|---|---|
| Traumatic Brain Injury | Do NOT use permissive hypotension; target MAP >80 mmHg; target platelets >100,000; target INR <1.2 |
| Paediatric | No validated MTP scoring systems; use damage control resuscitation strategy scaled to weight; adjusted product volumes |
| Obstetric (PPH) | Early FFP use; consider fibrinogen concentrate/cryoprecipitate early; Cochrane 2025 review supports structured transfusion approach [PMID: 39911088] |
| Elderly / Geriatric | Higher mortality; systematic review (2025) found poorer outcomes with hemorrhagic shock; lower physiological reserve; lower transfusion thresholds may be needed [PMID: 38821531] |
| Anticoagulated patients | Warfarin reversal: 4-factor PCC (25-50 units/kg) + Vitamin K 10 mg IV slow infusion; DOACs: specific reversal agents (andexanet alfa for Xa inhibitors, idarucizumab for dabigatran) |
