  • Title: [The lethal triad of hemorrhage].
    Author: Borowko R, Vignon PO, Lutz N, Maillot A, Lefort H.
    Journal: Rev Infirm; 2021; 70(273):16-18. PubMed ID: 34446227.
    Abstract:
    Coagulopathy, acidosis and hypothermia form the lethal triad in trauma patients with acute hemorrhage. The prevention of this chain reaction relies on an adapted management from the first care in pre-hospital situation: rapid arrest of bleeding, fight against hypothermia, limited vascular filling with an early recourse to vasoactive amines. Pre-hospital transfusion is still rare, whereas in the hospital, an adapted transfusion strategy can wait for or support a surgical or radiological hemostasis procedure.
