Electrolyte disturbances are common in patients with critical bleeding requiring massive transfusion. The risk factors and outcome associated with the occurrence of hypomagnesemia in massive transfusion remain uncertain. ⋯ Hypomagnesemia was common and associated with hypocalcemia in massive transfusion, but serum magnesium concentrations had no independent effect or interactive effect with hypocalcemia on mortality of patients requiring massive transfusion.
