First CT scan, mean ± SD | 2.34 ± 0.90 | 2.33 ± 1.05 | 0.82 |
Second CT scan, mean ± SD* | 2.78 ± 1.50 | 2.74 ± 1.52 | 0.95 |

19 patients died before they could be scanned for a second time. The scores for these patients have been set to 6.
Because 71.4% of patients experienced no change in scores, this measure distinguishes those whose score became worse compared with those whose score remained unchanged or improved (n = 1).
COMPONENT, blood component resuscitation; LTOWB, low-titer group O whole blood.
