Effects or Blood Transrusion Amount on Coagulation Function and Safety in Patients with Severe Trauma

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effects of different blood transfusion volumes on coagulation function and safety in patients with severe trauma.Patients and Methods: One hundred and ten cases with severe trauma were selected as the research subjects. They were admitted to our hospital from April 2016 to April 2018. Sixty patients who needed massive transfusion (1-1.5 times of their own blood volume level) were assigned to the study group, and another 50 patients who needed small amount of transfusion (less than their own blood volume level) were assigned to the control group. The blood coagulation function index, thrombelastogram index, blood gas analysis index and the influence of adverse reactions were compared between patients in the two groups before transfusion and 24h after transfusion. Results:Twenty fourhoursafter transfusion, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thrombin time (APTT) and thrombin time (TT) were prolonged in both groups. Both platelet (PLT) and fibrinogen (FIB) decreased(p<0.05). Both response time of blood coagulation factor (R) and fibrin polymerization reaction time (K) decreased and were lowerin the study group than those in the control group, while fibrous protein aggregation function (Angle), platelet aggregation function (MA) elevated and were higherin the study group than those in the control group (p<0.05). pH in both groups decreased, oxygen partial pressure (P02) and carbon dioxide partial pressure (PC02) in both groups increased (p<0.05). PaC02 and Pa02 in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and pH was lower than that in the control group (p<0.05). The incidence of total adverse reactions in the study group was higher than that in the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion:ln conclusion, massive transfusion for patients with severe trauma could reduce the patient’s platelet and affect their coagulation function.
