Frozen Plasma

Part one of this chapter tells you about the physiology of blood and oxygen supply, about anaemia and tissue hypoxia, and the physiology of coagulation. Drugs that interfere with clotting are discussed. Bleeding, coagulation, and platelet disorders are covered as well as disseminated intravascular coagulation. Part two is concerned with bleeding in the recovery room: how to cope with rapid blood loss, managing ongoing blood loss, and how to use clotting profiles to guide treatment. There is also a section covering blood transfusion, blood groups and typing. Massive blood transfusion is clearly described, there are guidelines about when to use fresh frozen plasma, when to use platelets, and when to use cryoprecipitate. The final section of the chapter is about problems with blood transfusions.

Laboratory Results

Massive transfusion in a child is likely to occur in cases of trauma or during surgeries that are at risk for severe blood loss such as liver transplantation and craniofacial procedures. It may also occur when least expected, if inadvertent injury to a vascular structure occurs during surgery. Ability to enlist assistance with administration of the various blood products required and also with checking frequent laboratory results will facilitate the process. Knowledge of the different factors that rapidly become depleted as well as lab values that need to be closely monitored is necessary to avoid further complications during massive blood transfusion.
