“…The increase in colloid volume may cause transfusionassociated circulatory overload and may lead to pulmonary edema (figure 2). 7,8 The majority of patients who experienced pulmonary complications had either atrial fibrillation, mechanical heart valves, or cardiomyopathy. However, we cannot say with certainty that pulmonary edema was caused by FFP.…”

Progression of warfarin-associated intracerebral hemorrhage after INR normalization with FFP

2006

To identify hematoma progression in patients with warfarin-associated intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) despite international normalized ratio (INR) normalization with fresh-frozen plasma (FFP), we reviewed 45 patients with warfarin-associated ICH given FFP. The median time for door to INR normalization was 30 hours (14 to 49.5), with 4 patients' hematomas enlarging after INR normalization. FFP is associated with substantial time delay to actual administration and pulmonary edema and may not prevent progression of ICH despite INR normalization.
