Implementing Treatment Algorithms for the Correction of Trauma Induced Coagulopathy
c4ts.qmul.ac.ukThe 5-year TACTIC project is a multi-component study, a main focus of which is the development of European-wide clinical trial, entitled “Implementing Treatment Algorithms for the Correction of Trauma Induced Coagulopathy (iTACTIC)”. TACTIC is designed to find out if a rapid, detailed blood clotting test called Viscoelastic Haemostatic Assays (VHA) can be used to identify TIC early and to guide a MTP for that individual patient’s needs. The study will compare the outcomes of patients treated using the conventional blood transfusion strategy with the outcomes of patients treated using a personalised blood transfusion strategy guided by VHA.
