DOI: 10.1016/j.jamcollsurg.2017.02.018
Abstract: BACKGROUND Coagulopathy is associated with massive transfusion in trauma, yet most clinical scores to predict this end point do not incorporate coagulation assays. Previous work has identified that shock increases circulating tissue plasminogen activator (tPA).… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10903127.2023.2166174
Abstract: IntroductionThe Assessment of Blood Consumption (ABC) score is a previously validated scoring system designed to predict which severely injured trauma patients will require massive transfusion. When the ABC score is used in the prehospital setting… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17474086.2020.1803735
Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction Massive transfusion (MT) prediction scores allowed for the early identification of patients with massive hemorrhage likely to require large volumes of blood products. Despite their utility, very few MT scoring systems have shown… read more here.
