Dried plasma retains hemostatic function and thermal stability during Arctic military operations
Dried plasma retains its hemostatic and thermal stability following Arctic deployment, supporting remote damage control resuscitation in the absence of whole blood. Nonetheless, field implementation is challenged by the propensity of the diluent to freeze and the logistical requirement for warmed infusion.
