Remote Damage Control: Civilian Experience in
the Pre-Hospital Setting
No Disclosures
Objectives
• Indications for treatment with blood products for traumatic hemorrhagic shock in the pre-hospital setting
• Monitoring devices used for coagulopathy and shock • Therapeutics utilized in these patients for pre-hospital
treatment of casualties • Evacuations of long durations compared to rapid ones • Methods of implementation to improve rapid
incorporation of recently initiated changes in practice
Remote Damage Control Resusc
• Austere/rural environment patients • Modified transfusion strategy • Different than those with scene/pre-hospital time < 30
minutes • Limited resources available • Lack of plasma availability • 40% of the population, 60% of the trauma mortality
• Current treatment options for uncontrolled hemorrhage in this environment are very limited
• >75% of combat fatalities occur in the field
Hartford Consensus February 2013
• Leaders in law enforcement, EMS, military and the American College of Surgeons
• Recommendations for civilian organizations to improve survival during active shooter scenarios
• Stress “the importance of early and definitive hemorrhage control to maximize survival in the victims….”
Hartford Consensus THREAT • T - Threat suppression • H - Hemorrhage Control • RE - Rapid Extraction to safety, • A - Assessment by medical providers • T - Transport to definitive care
Coagulopathy on Presentation
• An initial INR ≥ 1.5 reliably predicts those military casualties who will require MT.
• Pts who have a significant injury present with a coagulopathy.
• Severity of injury and mortality is linearly associated with the degree of the initial coagulopathy.

Background
MacLeod JBA et al. Early Coagulopathy Predicts
Mortality in Trauma J Trauma 2003
Brohi K et al. Acute Traumatic Coagulopathy
J Trauma 2003
By the time of arrival at the ED, 28% (2,994 of 10,790) of trauma patients had a detectable coagulopathy that was
associated with poor outcome
Background
de Biasi et al. Early Coagulopathy Predicts Mortality in Trauma
Transfusion (Epub, Accepted 2010)
Mortality was associated with worse Plasma Deficit &
The efficacy of the Plasma Repletion occurs within hours
DoD Learned About Thawed Plasma
• Thawed plasma is FFP that is kept for up to 5 days at 4°C • This product should be present upon arrival of the casualty in
the ED • should be used as a primary resuscitative fluid started in the ED
• This approach not only addresses the metabolic abnormality of shock, but initiates reversal of the coagulopathy present in the ED.
• Thawed plasma is used in theater • The DoD Level 1 trauma center uses this product
• Decreases waste by 60-70%

Early Use of Blood in the Pre-hospital Setting
• Mayo Clinic Experience • 1993-96 retrospective review • Criteria: Hgb<10, shock, hypotension after
resuscitation • ~2100 helicopter flights, 94 patients received
PRBC’s (4%, 91% interfacility transfer) • 48% trauma patients, 25% GI bleed, 38% AAA • Hgb increased from 8.9 to 10.2 after 2 PRBC • No transfusion reactions or complications • Average 12 u PRBC after admision • Age of RBC is < 14 days
Air Med J 1998 Zietlow and Berns
Age of Blood and Procoagulant Microparticles
• Historically, PCMP increases with age of blood
• 52 trauma patients vs 22 volunteers • Higher PCMP with injury; no difference
between transfused (n=19)/not transfused • 24 hour PCMP decreased with transfusion
• No decrease if no transfusion • Difference widened with increasing transfusion

• Group AB • Lacks anti-A/anti-B • Pan-ABO compatible • Rarest blood group
Group A Plasma Transfusion Introduction
Inaba K et al. Arch Surg 2010
Group A Plasma Transfusion Group AB supply
• Recent safety data • ABO incompatible platelets
• 1 – 2 plasma units
• 1 in 9000 hemolysis
• Group O
• Immunosuppression
Isaak EJ et al. Immunohematology 2011 Josephson CD et al. Transfus Apher Sci 2010
• 10,206 patients over study period • Trauma patient • July 2008 – June 2012 • ≥ 1 unit emergency release plasma (group A
plasma) • 258 emergency release plasma (2.5%)
• 4 died prior to blood grouping
Group A Plasma Transfusion Results
• 254 patients • 35 ABO Incompatible (14%)
• 25 group B • 10 group AB
• 219 ABO Compatible (86%) • 116 group A • 103 group O

Group A Plasma Transfusion Discussion
• Group A plasma has equivalent outcomes to group AB • Incompatible transfusions occurred • No hemolytic reactions • Similar mortality • Similar immunogenic complications
• Limitations
• Small comparison group
• Type II error potential
• Post-hoc analysis

CRASH-2 Study Lancet, Online Article, 2010
• Prospective, randomized controlled trial • 20,211 patients • TXA significantly reduced all cause mortality from 16.0% to
14.5% • TXA significantly reduced death due to bleeding from 5.7% to
4.9% 43

StO2
Beilman Study • Over a 15-month period, seven Level I trauma centers in
the USA enrolled 383 patients, 50 of whom developed MODS
• StO2 below 75% indicates serious hypoperfusion in trauma patients
• 78% of patients who developed MODS, and 91% of patients who died, had StO2 below 75% in the first hour
• Trauma patients who maintained StO2 above 75% within the first hour had an 88% chance of MODS-free survival
J Trauma 2006
Can early StO2 predict the need of blood product requirement in trauma
population?

Current Status • All 3 Mayo helicopter bases carrying 3 PRBC
and 3 thawed plasma • All 3 use same transfusion triggers • All 3 use i-Stat INR and ABG cartridges • All 3 carry TXA; uses similar triggers but has
some limitations for use • Just added StO2 as a trigger • Limited waste at all 3 sites • No crystalloid for those with hemorrhage • Tourniquets and Combat Gauze on all 3 ships
Implementation of Change • Consensus • Review of the literature and our own data • Practicality and safety are first order of
business with best interest of patient in mind • Continuous monitoring of program • Education of all health care providers • Willingness of blood bank and transfusion
medicine to consider novel use of products
Overall System Results • Current era (2011) compared to the era
before pre-hospital plasma • Referrals up (838 vs 998*) • ISS up (9 vs 12*) • Mortality same (2.5% vs 2.2%) • Observed decline open abdomen (under study) • Observed decline in massive tx (under study) • Arrival TEG improved? (under study)
Summary • Trauma patients die from shock • Our job is to limit preventable trauma death • First, identify the patient in shock • Pre-hospital resuscitation with plasma can
prevent the trauma induced coagulopathy and limit the risk of death due to hemorrhage
• Making dried plasma available in the rural and pre-hospital/austere environment will save lives
