These results have mostly been derived from non-head-injured patients. The aim of the present study was to analyze whether a regime using a high FFP pRBC transfusion ratio FFP pRBC ratio 1 2 would be associated with a similar survival benefit in severely injured patients with traumatic brain injury TBI Abbreviated Injury Scale AIS score head 3 as demonstrated for patients without TBI requiring massive transfusion 10 U of pRBCs . Methods A retrospective analysis of severely injured patients from the Trauma Registry of the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Unfallchirurgie TR-DGU was conducted. Inclusion criteria were primary admission age 16 years severe injury Injury Severity Score ISS 16 and massive transfusion 10 U of pRBCs from emergency room to intensive care unit ICU . Patients were subdivided into patients with TBI AIS score head 3 and patients without TBI AIS score head 3 as well as according to the transfusion ratio they had received high FFP pRBC ratio FFP pRBC ratio 1 2 and low FFP pRBC ratio FFP pRBC ratio 1 2 . In addition morbidity and mortality between the two groups were compared. Results A total of 1 250 data sets of severely injured patients from the TR-DGU between 2002 and 2008 were analyzed.
