Represent threshold recommend by prior researchers as thresholds for massive transfusion.

ABC, assessment of blood consumption score; Ht, high dose tissue plasminogen activator thrombelastography; INR, internal normalized ratio; Lt, low dose tissue plasminogen activator thrombelastography; LY30, percent clot lysis 30 minutes after reaching maximum amplitude; MA, maximum amplitude; R, rapid thrombelastography; TASH, trauma associated severe hemorrhage; TMA, time to maximum amplitude.
