resusix

Resusix is a portable, shelf-stable blood product derived from pooled human plasma that has undergone solvent/detergent (S/D) pathogen inactivation and spray drying. It is designed as a resuscitation fluid for use in trauma patients experiencing severe blood loss, particularly in remote or austere environments where traditional fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is impractical due to cold chain requirements. The product maintains functional clotting capability and aims to promote systemic vascular stability while preventing coagulopathy and inflammation. Resusix offers an extended shelf life of over two years and can be rehydrated for infusion when needed. It provides a safer alternative to FFP by being free of micro particles and cell fragments commonly found in FFP[1][3][4][5][6][7].
