Study Summary

The study aligns with the strategic plan of New York-Presbyterian Hospital (NYPH) to reduce allogeneic blood product use and decrease unnecessary laboratory costs. One of the NYPH Quality and Patient Safety Goals for 2013 was to improve the appropriate use of transfusion guidelines and reduce unnecessary red blood cell (RBC) transfusions. Further, this study will help to answer whether RiaSTAP is a more effective product to treat bleeding than cryoprecipitate. In addition, this trial will provide investigators with preliminary data to apply for future federal funding opportunities, such as the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute sponsored R21 grant (PAR-13-025) that encourages research grant applications from investigators who propose to study research topics in blood banking and transfusion medicine aimed at improving the safety and availability of the blood supply and the practice of transfusion medicine. The investigators anticipate future follow-on studies further investigating fibrinogen concentrate and other similar therapeutics in other perioperative populations, such as in postpartum hemorrhage or surgical ICU settings. Finally, this study involves the use of a safer therapeutic, fibrinogen concentrate, to improve patient care and patient safety. This product does not require the time-intensive process of thawing; therefore, delays in patient care can be avoided by having the product readily available in the OR.

Primary Outcome

The combined number of allogeneic blood products (platelets + Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) + RBCs) administered to subjects intraoperatively after study intervention.
