Methods Clinical data blood product consumption lowest haemoglobin values on day 1-10 after admission and 30-day mortality were extracted from in-hospital trauma registry and the blood bank data base. The subpopulation of massively transfused patients was identified and analysed separately. Results The total number of admitted trauma patients increased by 48 from 2002 to 2007 but the clinical data remained essentially unchanged. The mean number of erythrocyte units given day 1-10 decreased insignificantly from in 2002 to in 2007. New Injury Severity Score NISS increased in transfused and massively transfused patients but not significantly. The number of patients transfused with plasma increased and the mean ratio of erythrocyte to plasma units transfused decreased by about 50 . The mean haemoglobin value in transfused patients on day 2 after admittance was significantly lower in 2007 than in 2002 while that on day 10 was significantly higher in 2007 than in 2002 and 2004. There was no change of 30-day survival from 2002 to 2007. Conclusions Significant changes of transfusion practice occurred during the past decade probably as a result of increased focus on haemostasis and more precise criteria for transfusion. Despite a lower consumption of erythrocytes in 2007 than in 2002 and 2004 the mean haemoglobin level of transfused patients was higher on day 10 in 2007. The low number of .
