Massive transfusion involves administering 10 or more units of whole blood or packed red blood cells (PRBCs) within 24 hours. The primary objective of a massive transfusion is to prevent fatal outcomes resulting from critical hypoperfusion while striving to attain hemostasis through surgical, endoscopic, interventional radiological, or alternative interventions. This activity reviews the contemporary literature regarding massive transfusion protocols and explores the potential complications of this life-saving intervention. This activity also highlights the crucial role of the interprofessional healthcare team in caring for patients requiring blood products.
