The Vacuum Assisted Closure Device: A Method of Securing Skin Grafts and Improving Graft Survival
TL;DR: The VAC provides a safe and effective method for securing split-thickness skin grafts and is associated with improved graft survival as measured by a reduction in number of repeated STSGs.
Journal Article

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the logic and evidence for the use of plasma, platelets, and cryoprecipitate early in the course of massive transfusion for trauma and concluded that early use of platelets at the upper end of recommended doses appears to reduce the incidence of coagulopathy in massively transfused individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
