Stop overt bleeding where possible
IV access
Suspect 40% blood loss if
significant source of bleeding In trauma or surgical
suspected and clinical bleeding consider
parameters as follows:
2 cannula (largest possible) Tranexamic Acid
Age Heart rate Systolic BP Send blood samples – crossmatch, FBC, PT / APTT / Fibrinogen, Initial bolus 15mg/kg
<1 year >160 <70 Biochemistry (U&E, LFT, ionised Ca, phosphate) (max 1g) followed by
Arterial / venous blood gas measurement maintenance infusion
1–2 years >150 <80

Resuscitate
Tachypnoea or increased work IV fluids – crystalloid or colloid – 10–20ml/kg
of breathing
Therapeutic aims
Give oxygen
Urine output < 0.5ml / kg / hour Hb >80g/L
<1.5x midpoint of
APTT/PT
normal range
Blood loss >40% blood volume (ie. >30ml/kg) is immediately life-threatening
Give 20ml/kg red cells (up to four units). Aim for Hb>80g/L Ionised calcium
>1mmol/L
Before transfusion Give Group O RhD negative if immediate need (on ABG)
• Check patient ID and/or blood group unknown pH >7.2
• Use wristbands
• Ask parent if present Blood transfusion lab will provide group specific/ Core temperature >35°C
