    Abstract The Danish Capital Region Blood Bank operates a 24/7 on-call service staffed with physicians specialized in hemostatic management to guide clinicians in hemostatic resuscitation, including administration of prohemostatic therapy (PHT). The outcome of patients who receive PHT as part of hemostatic resuscitation remains unanswered. The objective of this study was therefore to investigate clinical outcome of patients receiving PHT managed by the on-call service. We identified 287 patients who received PHT during 2015-16, of which 161 (59%) received fibrinogen concentrate (FC), 111 (39%) received prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC), and 15 (5%) received recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) as the first product. Patients were critically ill with a 30-day mortality of 31%. Among FC recipients, cardiothoracic admission, non-trauma, and antithrombotics predicted survival. FC recipients had lower platelet count and thrombelastography clot strengths than the other PHT groups and within the group, these factors predicted mortality. The symptomatic thromboembolic event (TE) rate at 30 days was 5%. For PCC recipients, vitamin K antagonists predicted survival, while rivaroxaban predicted mortality. TE rate was 2%. We did not identify factors associated with survival in the small group of rFVIIa recipients. TE rate was 13%. In summary, trauma and coagulopathy predicted mortality in patients who received FC and our data suggest that optimization of PHT algorithms may be possible. Outcome of patients who received PCC was comparable to results reported elsewhere and its use may be safe in a setting as reported here. Recombinant FVIIa was rarely used but had the highest incidence of arterial thromboembolism.

    Abstract Background: A main cause of trauma morbidity and mortality is multiple-organ failure, and endotheliopathy has been implicated. Pilot studies indicate that low-dose prostacyclin improves endothelial functionality in critically ill patients, suggesting that this intervention may improve trauma patient outcome.
    Methods: We conducted a multicenter, randomized, blinded, clinical investigator-initiated trial in 229 trauma patients with hemorrhagic shock who were randomized 1:1 to 72 hours infusion of the prostacyclin analog iloprost (1 ng/kg/min) or placebo. The primary outcome was the number of intensive care unit (ICU)-free days alive within 28 days of admission. Secondary outcomes included 28-day all-cause mortality and hospital length of stay.
    Results: The mean number of ICU-free days alive within 28 days was 15.64 days in the iloprost group versus 13.99 days in the placebo group (adjusted mean difference, -1.63 days [95% confidence interval (CI), -4.64 to 1.38 days]; p = 0.28). The 28-day mortality was 18.8% in the iloprost group versus 19.6% in the placebo group (odds ratio, 1.01 [95% CI, 0.51-2.0]; p = 0.97). The mean hospital length of stay was 19.96 days in the iloprost group versus 27.32 days in the placebo group (adjusted mean difference, 7.84 days [95% CI, 1.66-14.02 days], p = 0.01).
    Conclusion: Iloprost did not result in a statistically significant increase in the number of ICU-free days alive within 28 days of admission, whereas it was safe and a statistically significant reduction in hospital length of stay was observed. Further research on prostacyclin in shocked trauma patients is warranted.

    Abstract Background: In a pilot study, we found a significant reduction in mean daily sequential organ failure assessment score in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19 who received prostacyclin, compared to placebo. We here investigate the effect on biomarkers of endothelial activation and damage.
    Methods: Post-hoc study of a randomized controlled trial in adult patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, mechanically ventilated, with soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) plasma levels >4 ng/mL. Patients received prostacyclin infusion (1 ng/kg/min) or placebo. Blood samples were collected at baseline and 24 h.
    Results: Eighty patients were randomized (41 prostacyclin, 39 placebo). The median changes in syndecan-1 plasma levels at 24 h were -3.95 (IQR: -21.1 to 2.71) ng/mL in the prostacyclin group vs. 3.06 (IQR: -8.73 to 20.5) ng/mL in the placebo group (difference of the medians: -7.01 [95% CI: -22.3 to -0.231] ng/mL, corresponding to -3% [95% CI: -11% to 0%], p = 0.04). Changes in plasma levels of sTM, PECAM-1, p-selectin, and CD40L did not differ significantly between groups.
    Conclusions: Prostacyclin infusion, compared to placebo, resulted in a measurable decrease in endothelial glycocalyx shedding (syndecan-1) at 24 h, suggesting a protective effect on the endothelium, which may be related to the observed reduction in organ failure.
