Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a randomized feasibility trial conducted with severe trauma patients. At admission patients presented hypofibrinogenemia, hypotension and tachycardia. The primary outcome was feasibility assessed by the proportion of patients receiving the allocated treatment up to 60 minutes after randomization. The treatments regards to receive or not to receive an early replacement of fibrinogen.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a randomized feasibility trial conducted between December 2015 and January 2017 with severe trauma patients (Index of Shock Severity \[ISS\] ≥ 15) admitted to the emergency room of a large trauma center. At admission patients presented qualitative hypofibrinogenemia (FIBTEM A5 ≤ 9 mm), hypotension (systolic blood pressure \<90 mmHg) and tachycardia (heart rate \> 100 bpm). The primary outcome was feasibility assessed by the proportion of patients receiving the allocated treatment up to 60 minutes after randomization meaning receive replacement through fibrinogen concentrate (50mg per kg of body weight) by the intervention group and not to receive an early replacement of fibrinogen by control group.
