Whole blood resuscitation and post‐traumatic organ dysfunction in injured children

Key Points

• To assess the impact of whole blood resuscitation on organ dysfunction in injured children.
• Comparison of patients receiving whole blood and those receiving component therapy after injury.
• Study of transfusion practices in pediatric trauma cases.
• Evaluation of organ function outcomes post-resuscitation.
• Whole blood resuscitation was associated with reduced organ dysfunction.
• Further clarification of clinical benefits is needed in larger patient cohorts.
• Significant implications for trauma care protocols.
