Hi Everyone, Whole blood, freeze dried plasma, refrigerated or frozen platelets.... On Oct 31st - Nov 3 Graeme, Emelyn and I attended the THOR - THUNDER conference hosted here in Perth at the Rendezvous Hotel in Scarborough. Who is THOR? In their own words: The THOR (trauma haemostasis oxygenation resuscitation) organization is a resuscitation and blood network, originating in Norway a decade ago, and now boasting global reach. It has built an avid following of both civilian and military resuscitation clinicians and scientists, covering both pre-hospital and hospital management of critically unwell patients. The THOR vision is to improve outcomes from traumatic haemorrhagic shock by optimising the acute phase of resuscitation. The mission is to develop and implement the best practices for haemorrhagic shock resuscitation from pre-hospital care right through to the completion of the acute phase of hospital resuscitation.
