We've had a great year! A huge thank you to everyone involved with our work - as we couldn't do this without you all🌟

[NHS Blood+Transplant @NHSBT]

Great news – we’ve finished recruitment to the SWIFT trial three months ahead of schedule, thanks to the support of our partners.

We’re trialing whole blood transfusions with @DMS_MilMed @AirAmbulancesUK and hospitals around the country.

@ExDefProfEM @SWiFT_trial @DMS_MilMed @NHSBT @DMS_RCDM @AirAmbulancesUK @NHSBT_RD @NHSBT_CTU This is an extraordinary acheivement. 10 years ago, if somebody said 'let do a randomised trial of blood in PHEM helicopters on seriously injured people' I think we would have all anticipated slow recruitment. 👏👏

Fantastic work by transfusion professionals up and down the country supplying air ambulances with @SWiFT_trial boxes, a huge thank you! 🩷 @BritishBloodTS
