[PMID: 38079205 PMCID: PMC10750238 DOI: 10.2196/49582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is a common and potentially life-threatening coagulopathy as a result of traumatic injury, characterized by abnormal blood clotting and bleeding. Although several treatments have been proposed for TIC, their effectiveness and safety remain unclear. Further, numerous systematic reviews and meta-analyses on trauma have been conducted; however, to our knowledge, there is no systematic review and meta-analysis that specifically focuses on TIC management. Therefore, a comprehensive synthesis of the available evidence on interventions for TIC is needed. OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of interventions for the management of TIC. METHODS We will conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized and nonrandomized controlled trials as well as observational studies regarding severe trauma in patients with TIC. The interventions will include administration of coagulation factor concentrates, tranexamic acid, and blood component products. The control group will be managed with an ordinal transfusion or administered placebo. The primary outcome will be in-hospital mortality. We will search the electronic databases of MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Two reviewers will independently screen the titles and abstracts, retrieve the full text of the selected articles, and extract essential data. We will apply uniform criteria for evaluating the risk of bias associated with individual randomized controlled trials and nonrandomized trials based on the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Risk ratio values will be expressed as point estimates with 95% CIs. Continuous variables will be expressed as the mean difference along with their 95% CIs and P values. We will assess the strength of evidence using the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation) approach. This review will be the first systematic review and meta-analysis providing information on the effectiveness and safety of interventions for the management of TIC, including the administration of coagulation factor concentrates, tranexamic acid, and blood component products. Ethics approval and patient consent were not required for this study protocol, as we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of publicly available data, without any direct involvement of human participants. RESULTS We will summarize the selection of the eligible studies using a PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) flowchart. The results will be presented in a table summarizing the evidence. The results of the meta-analysis will be depicted using figures and forest plots. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review will provide updated information on the efficacy and safety of using coagulation factor concentrates, tranexamic acid, and blood component products for patients with TIC. To our knowledge, there is no systematic review and meta-analysis that specifically focuses on treatments for TIC. TRIAL REGISTRATION UMIN registry UMIN000050170; https://tinyurl.com/yr8pcrj6.

Itagaki Y, Hayakawa M, Takahashi Y, Hirano S, Yamakawa K. Emergency administration of fibrinogen concentrate for haemorrhage: systematic review and meta-analysis. World J Emerg Surg 2023; 18:27. [PMID: 36998084 PMCID: PMC10061696 DOI: 10.1186/s13017-023-00497-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/26/2023] [Indexed: 04/01/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The occurrence of massive haemorrhages in various emergency situations increases the need for blood transfusions and increases the risk of mortality. Fibrinogen concentrate (FC) use may increase plasma fibrinogen levels more rapidly than fresh-frozen product or cryoprecipitate use. Previous several systematic reviews and meta-analyses have not effectively demonstrated FC efficacy in significantly improving the risk of mortality and reducing transfusion requirements. In this study, we investigated the use of FC for haemorrhages in emergency situations. METHODS AND ANALYSIS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we included controlled trials, but excluded randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in elective surgeries. The study population consisted of patients with haemorrhages in emergency situations, and the intervention was emergency supplementation of FC. The control group was administered with ordinal transfusion or placebo. The primary and secondary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and the amount of transfusion and thrombotic events, respectively. The electronic databases searched included MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. RESULTS Nine RCTs in the qualitative synthesis with a total of 701 patients were included. Results showed a slight increase in in-hospital mortality with FC treatment (RR 1.24, 95% CI 0.64-2.39, p = 0.52) with very low certainty of the evidence. There was no reduction in the use of red blood cells (RBC) transfusion in the first 24 h after admission with FC treatment (mean difference [MD] 0.0 Unit in the FC group, 95% CI - 0.99-0.98, p = 0.99) with very low certainty of the evidence. However, the use of fresh-frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion significantly increased in the first 24 h after admission with FC treatment (MD 2.61 Unit higher in the FC group, 95% CI 0.07-5.16, p = 0.04). The occurrence of thrombotic events did not significantly differ with FC treatment. CONCLUSIONS The present study indicates that the use of FC may result in a slight increase in in-hospital mortality. While FC did not appear to reduce the use of RBC transfusion, it likely increased the use of FFP transfusion and may result in a large increase in platelet concentrate transfusion. However, the results should be interpreted cautiously due to the unbalanced severity in the patient population, high heterogeneity, and risk of bias.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe trauma represents a major global public health burden and the management of post-traumatic bleeding continues to challenge healthcare systems around the world. Post-traumatic bleeding and associated traumatic coagulopathy remain leading causes of potentially preventable multiorgan failure and death if not diagnosed and managed in an appropriate and timely manner. This sixth edition of the European guideline on the management of major bleeding and coagulopathy following traumatic injury aims to advise clinicians who care for the bleeding trauma patient during the initial diagnostic and therapeutic phases of patient management. METHODS The pan-European, multidisciplinary Task Force for Advanced Bleeding Care in Trauma included representatives from six European professional societies and convened to assess and update the previous version of this guideline using a structured, evidence-based consensus approach. Structured literature searches covered the period since the last edition of the guideline, but considered evidence cited previously. The format of this edition has been adjusted to reflect the trend towards concise guideline documents that cite only the highest-quality studies and most relevant literature rather than attempting to provide a comprehensive literature review to accompany each recommendation. RESULTS This guideline comprises 39 clinical practice recommendations that follow an approximate temporal path for management of the bleeding trauma patient, with recommendations grouped behind key decision points. While approximately one-third of patients who have experienced severe trauma arrive in hospital in a coagulopathic state, a systematic diagnostic and therapeutic approach has been shown to reduce the number of preventable deaths attributable to traumatic injury. CONCLUSION A multidisciplinary approach and adherence to evidence-based guidelines are pillars of best practice in the management of severely injured trauma patients. Further improvement in outcomes will be achieved by optimising and standardising trauma care in line with the available evidence across Europe and beyond.

Abstract
The European guideline on the management of trauma-induced major bleeding and coagulopathy summarises the most relevant recommendations for trauma coagulopathy management. The management of trauma-induced major bleeding should interdisciplinary follow algorithms which distinguish between life-threatening and non-life-threatening bleeding. Point-of-care viscoelastic methods (VEM) assist target-controlled haemostatic treatment. Neither conventional coagulation assays nor VEM should delay treatment in life-threatening trauma-induced bleeding. Adjustments may be rational due to local circumstances, including the availability of blood products, pharmaceuticals, and employees.
