FIBTEM A10 and fibrinogen concentration on admission to the ER, and RBC transfusion. Low FIBTEM A10 (0 to 3 mm) and low fibrinogen concentration (<100 mg/dL) upon ER admission was associated with an increased requirement for RBC transfusion. A10, clot amplitude at 10 minutes after CT; ER, emergency room; FIBTEM, extrinsically activated thromboelastometric test with cytochalasin D; RBC, red blood cell concentrate. (a)* P < 0.0001 vs 0 to 3 mm; (b)* P < 0.001 vs ≤100 mg/dL; **P < 0.0001 vs ≤100 mg/dL; (c) Correlation between FIBTEM A10 and fibrinogen concentration rho = 0.75
