Dry plasma for severe bleeding before arriving at hospital
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving a dried form of blood plasma (called dry plasma) to people with severe bleeding in an ambulance or at the scene helps save lives. The dried plasma is mixed with water and given through an IV, and it may help stop bleeding better than just fluids alone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must show signs of major bleeding, such as heavy blood loss or bleeding that won't stop.
- Your bleeding must be serious enough that medical staff would normally start giving you fluids through a vein (IV) as part of standard emergency care.

This trial tests a dried (lyophilized) form of blood plasma that can be mixed with water and given to patients who need plasma transfusions. The goal is to see if this dried plasma is safe and works as well as frozen plasma for treating bleeding or reversing the effects of blood thinners like warfarin.
This trial tests a standard set of emergency blood transfusions for people with life-threatening bleeding from a serious injury. It aims to improve survival by giving blood products quickly before reaching the hospital.
This trial compares giving whole blood versus standard care in adults with severe trauma and dangerous blood loss (hemorrhagic shock). The goal is to see if whole blood helps stabilize patients faster and improves outcomes after major bleeding.
This trial tests whether giving fresh frozen plasma early helps treat burn shock and improve blood vessel function in adults with large burns. It may reduce the amount of fluid needed and prevent complications.
This trial tests whether giving whole blood (instead of separate blood parts) to adults with major traumatic bleeding in the prehospital setting improves survival. It's for patients who need blood immediately after a serious injury.
This trial tests whether giving calcium and vasopressin early can improve outcomes in people with major injury who are at risk for life-threatening bleeding shock. It mainly includes patients who need rapid blood transfusion and likely major surgery to stop bleeding.
