Abstract:Objectives

The benefits of early hemorrhagic shock recognition may be limited by barriers to accessing blood products and their timely administration. We examined how pediatric trauma programs obtain blood products, the types of rapid infusion models used, and the metrics tracked to improve transfusion process efficiency in their emergency department (ED).
