Brief Summary:

Fibrinogen is a unique precursor of fibrin and cannot be compensated for by other coagulation factors. If plasma fibrinogen concentrations are insufficient, hemostatic clots cannot be formed with the appropriate firmness. In severe traumatic brain injury(TBI) patients, plasma fibrinogen concentrations decrease earlier and more frequently than other coagulation factors,predicting massive bleeding and death.

The purpose of this study is to try early injection of fibrinogen concentrate in severe isolated traumatic brain injury and investigation the effect of it on post bleeding and complications.

Drug Information available for: Fibrinogen

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Case group

Severe isolated Traumatic Brain injury patients with serum fibrinogen level under 200 mg/dl that receive Fibrinogen concentrate after common emergency resuscitation. Instruction:

  1. Airway control & breathing.
  2. Circulation (Serum therapy, Epinephrine,Packed cell, FFP and ...).
  3. Fibrinogen Concentrate(IV injection): Each vial contains 1gr fibrinogen concentrate. Fibrinogen concentrate will be given until serum fibrinogen level riches to 200 mg/dl.

Dose (mg/kg body weight) = ([Target level (mg/dL) - measured level (mg/dL)])/(1.7 (mg/dL per mg/kg body weight))

Drug: RiaSTAP Injectable Product

RiaSTAP, Fibrinogen Concentrate (Human) is a human blood coagulation factor indicated for the treatment of acute bleeding episodes.

Dose (mg/kg body weight) =

([Target level (mg/dL) - measured level (mg/dL)])/(1.7 (mg/dL per mg/kg body weight))


Active Comparator: Control group

Severe isolated Traumatic Brain injury patients with serum fibrinogen level under 200 mg/dl that receive common emergency resuscitation. Instruction:

  1. Airway control & breathing.
  2. Circulation (Serum therapy, Epinephrine,Packed cell, FFP and ...).
Drug: RiaSTAP Injectable Product

RiaSTAP, Fibrinogen Concentrate (Human) is a human blood coagulation factor indicated for the treatment of acute bleeding episodes.

Dose (mg/kg body weight) =

([Target level (mg/dL) - measured level (mg/dL)])/(1.7 (mg/dL per mg/kg body weight))





Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mortality rate. [ Time Frame: Until 90 days after admission. ]
    Mortality rate after injection of fibrinogen concentrate.

  2. Average of serum fibrinogen level. [ Time Frame: Immediately after admission. ]
    Average of serum fibrinogen level in iTBI patient.

  3. The effect of early fibrinogen on post trauma bleeding (Intracranial hemorrhage). [ Time Frame: 2, 6, 24, 72 hours and 30 , 90 days after admission. ]
    The need to packed cell, FFP, Platelete.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. The complications that related to fibrinogen concentrate. [ Time Frame: until 90 days after admission. ]
    like DVT, PTE, MI.by measurement of serum D-dimer for DVT and PTE and serum Troponin C for MI.
