Key Points

To evaluate the association between whole blood transfusion and the incidence of acute respiratory distress syndrome in transfused trauma patients.
Evaluated clinical data from trauma patients who received blood transfusions during emergency care.
Assessed independent associations between ARDS development and the administration of whole blood versus fresh frozen plasma.
Whole blood transfusion was positively associated with the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in transfused trauma patients.
Fresh frozen plasma administration showed no association with the development of ARDS, diverging from findings in previous literature.

Implication

Reveals an association between whole blood transfusion and ARDS in trauma patients, suggesting potential pulmonary risks compared to plasma.

Abstract

We found an association between whole blood and the development of ARDS among trauma patients who received blood transfusions. Contrary to previous studies, we found no association between ARDS and fresh frozen plasma administration. The literature would benefit from further investigation via prospective study designs.
