Impact of infusion rates of fresh frozen plasma and platelets during the first 180 minutes of resuscitation.

Background: Whether high-ratio resuscitation (HRR) provides patients with survival advantage remains controversial. We hypothesized a direct correlation between HRR infusion rates in the first 180 minutes of resuscitation and survival.

Study Design: This was a retrospective analysis of massively transfused trauma patients surviving more than 30 minutes and undergoing surgery at a level 1 trauma center.
