Transfusion and coagulation management in acute type A aortic dissection
Surgical repair for acute type A dissection remains major surgery, requiring transfusions and coagulation factors in almost all patients. The ischaemic burden was identified as the most important factor that necessitates the use of these products, and was associated with early death. With proper management, acceptable rethoracotomy and chest drain rates with good clinical outcomes can be achieved.
