Fibrinogen concentrate administration inhibits endogenous fibrinogen synthesis in pigs after traumatic hemorrhage

摘要

BACKGROUND Fibrinogen plays a central role in coagulation and falls to critical levels early after trauma. Administration of fibrinogen concentrate (FC) to improve hemostasis after severe bleeding seems beneficial, but it is unclear whether its use introduces excessive fibrinogen with a potential risk of thrombosis. This study investigated changes of endogenous fibrinogen metabolism from FC administration following traumatic hemorrhage in pigs.
