J Trauma 2007 63 805-813 1 . Background Patients with severe traumatic injuries often present with coagulopathy and require massive transfusion. The risk of death from hemorrhagic shock increases in this population. To treat the coagulopathy of trauma some have suggested early aggressive correction using a 1 1 ratio of plasma to red blood cell RBC units. Methods Objective To determine whether the ratio of plasma to RBCs transfused would affect survival by decreasing death from hemorrhage. Design Retrospective chart review. Setting United States Army combat support hospital in Iraq. Subjects 246 patients who received a massive transfusion 10 units of RBCs in 24 hours from November 2003 to September 2005. Three groups of patients were constructed according to the plasma to RBC ratio .
