    AbstractThe importance of the targeted treatment of acquired hypofibrinogenemia during hemorrhage with a concentrated fibrinogen product (either cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate) cannot be underestimated. Fibrinogen concentrate is a pathogen inactivated, pooled product that offers a highly purified single factor concentrate. Cryoprecipitate is a pooled product that comes with a spectrum of other coagulation factors which may further enhance (additional procoagulant effect) or even disturb (prothrombotic risk) hemostasis. The pros and cons of each product are discussed.© 2019 AABB.
