Abstract
A full-scale russian-Ukrainian war has been going on for about nine months. Almost every day, Ukrainian cities suffer from enemy raids of missiles and drones, as a result, civilians become victims of hostilities. The prevalence of mine blast injury in these conditions is extremely high. Unfortunately, this type of injury is often accompanied by massive bleeding, which forces to make amendments in a treatment strategy. According to world standards, the first infusion solution for this category of patients should be whole blood, because of its numerous advantages. At the Multidisciplinary Clinical Hospital of Emergency and Intensive Care in Lviv, this strategy has been used almost since the first days of the war for patients of all age groups. In the article, we present a convincing evidence base of the advantages of using whole blood, as well as a clinical case of using whole blood infusion in a pediatric patient.
