Massive Hemorrhage Protocol

Ever wondered if you're truly maximizing your trauma resuscitation techniques? In this lecture from the ResusX: Golden Hour conference (see link below for more lectures), Dr. Chris Hicks talks about the Massive Hemorrhage Protocol (MHP), revealing why it's more than just about blood transfusion.
He explores the critical shift towards supporting clotting and maintaining perfusion to vital organs, emphasizing the importance of early intervention with blood products, calcium, and tranexamic acid.
Dr. Hicks also shares practical tips on when to activate and deactivate MHP, making this episode essential viewing for anyone in emergency medicine and trauma care.

Great talk. Thanks. I want to ask about the whole blood transfusion, which is a common practice in some areas. Can we utilise whole blood in massive transfusions?
