DAMAGE CONTROL IN TRAUMA

AND THE PROSPECT OF DAMAGE CONTROL RESUSCITATION VERSION 07-07

Two types of damage control (since 2004 after


starting Iraqi large scale conflict)
 DAMAGE CONTROL SURGERY
 Stop bleeding
 Stop contamination
 Temporary abdominal closure
 DAMAGE CONTROL RESUSCITATION
 Early management of coagulopathy
 And other component of lethal triad

PROTOCOL FOR THE USE OF rFVIIa IN


CRITICAL HEMORRHAGE IN THE BLUNT TRAUMA PATIENT

Traumatic bleeding in patient on


Non-mechanical bleeding in:
 Pelvic ring disruption
pre-injury anticoagulant therapy
 Intraperitoneal injury
 Injury of extremities and
 Multiple transfusions (> 8 PRBC
within 4 h)

1. Infuse FFP 10 ml/kg Still rFVIIa 90 µg/kg


2. Give PLT (> 50.000) bleeding
3. Correct fibrinogen Still bleeding after 120 min
(>50 mg/dl)
4. Correct pH (>7.2)
Still
5. Check again for
surgical bleeding rFVIIa 90 g/kg
bleeding

Exclude (futile administration) If:


INR: International Normalized Ratio 1. pH < 7.1
FFP: Fresh Frozen Plasme 2. Lactate > 13 mmol/l
PLT: Platelets 3. Previous or impending CPR
CPR: Cardio pulmonary resuscitation

DAMAGE CONTROL
 Deciding on an optimal time to return to the operating room
involves making some judgment calls
 The time period may be only 2 to 6 hours, although it may
be necessary to delay to return to the OR for as long as 24
to 48 hours in order to attain a stable physiologic state
