Your patient has lost lots of blood. What is the most desirable fluid replacement?

Plasmanate
Isotonic Crystalloid
Whole Blood
Platelets

Explanation

Answer - C - When there has been a high amount of blood lost, whole blood is the most desirable. It contains hemoglobin and other essential proteins. However, this is not practical in the pre-hospital setting. Plasmanate would be the next choice, but in the field, the choice would be isotonic crystalloid.
