What is the ABC Score?
A scoring system used in activating massive transfusions
What are the targets of resuscitation when performing MTP?

Which disorder is characterized by intravascular coagulation activation with microvascular thrombi formation, leading to bleeding and end-organ complications?
Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation
What does DIC result from?
Disorganized clotting and fibrinolysis
What is the primary goal of Massive Blood Transfusion (MBT)?
To rapidly deliver blood products to treat acute coagulopathy
Which condition is known for sickling of red blood cells at low oxygen levels, leading to tissue perfusion impairment and intense pain, especially in bones and joints?
Sickle cell disease
Which complication of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) involves the spleen removing red blood cells from circulation faster than they are produced?
Sequestration crisis
What is the main reason for the implementation of Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) in trauma situations?
To establish communication with the blood bank and trauma team
Which of the following indicators is typically elevated in a patient with Acute Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC)?

In the context of anesthetic management, what issue arises with stored blood that is highlighted in the text?
Hyperkalemia
What is the primary goal of transfusion protocols according to the text?
To achieve hemostasis
What blood product plays a crucial role during Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP)?
Fresh frozen plasma
Which of the following is a correct target during resuscitation in Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP)?
MAP 60 mmHg
Which class of hemorrhage involves up to 30% blood volume loss and moderate tachycardia?
Class II
Sickle cell trait patients with a PaO2 of > 35 mmHg will not advance to what condition?
Sickle cell crisis
Patients with sickle cell trait have a higher risk of developing sickle cell disease compared to the general population.
False
The goal of transfusion protocols is to restore normal coagulation parameters in patients.
False
Massive transfusion protocols involve the use of blood products like platelets, cryoprecipitate, and fresh frozen plasma.
True
A Class II hemorrhage involves up to 40% blood volume loss and mild tachycardia.
False
The ABC Score is used in the activation of Massive Transfusion Protocols (MTP) to assess the severity of hemorrhage.
False
Stored blood may have increased levels of potassium due to potassium loss during storage.
False
Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation is characterized by microvascular thrombi formation, leading to end-organ complications and simultaneous bleeding.
True
Hemophilia A involves the spleen removing red blood cells from circulation faster than they are produced.
False
Maintaining a core temperature above 35 degrees Celsius is important during resuscitation to prevent hypothermia-related coagulopathy.
True
$MBT$ stands for Major Bleeding Threshold, which is crucial in guiding the initiation of transfusion protocols.
False
