Volume of packed red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma is associated with intraoperative hypocalcaemia during large volume intraoperative transfusion

Abstract: Background: Severe hypocalcaemia is associated with increased transfusion in the trauma population. Furthermore, trauma patients developing severe hypocalcaemia have higher mortality and coagulopathy. Electrolyte abnormalities associated with massive transfusion have been less studied in the surgical population. Here, we tested the primary hypothesis that volume of packed red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma transfused intraoperatively is associated with lower nadir ionised calcium in the surgical populatio… Show more

“…With this focus on early administration of blood products, massive transfusion protocols (MTPs, commonly defined as transfusion of at least 10 U of blood in a 24-hr period) have become widely implemented (5). The Prevalence of hypocalcemia in the massively transfused population has become a well-described phenomenon (6–12).…”

“…With this focus on early administration of blood products, massive transfusion protocols (MTPs, commonly defined as transfusion of at least 10 U of blood in a 24-hr period) have become widely implemented (5). The Prevalence of hypocalcemia in the massively transfused population has become a well-described phenomenon (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12). This is likely even more pronounced when using component therapy; compared with WB resuscitation, solely using component therapy typically results in transfusion of larger volumes of blood product (2,(13)(14)(15)(16).…”
