Fibrinogen Replacement: Cryoprecipitate Dose Calculator

Calculates the cryoprecipitate dose required to achieve target fibrinogen levels. Each unit of cryoprecipitate raises fibrinogen by approximately 50–70 mg/dL in a 70 kg adult. Target fibrinogen ≥150–200 mg/dL in active hemorrhage; ≥200 mg/dL in obstetric hemorrhage.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How to Use

Enter the values for the scenario you are assessing. Calculates the cryoprecipitate dose required to achieve target fibrinogen levels. Each unit of cryoprecipitate raises fibrinogen by approximately 50–70 mg/dL in a 70 kg adult. Target fibrinogen ≥150–200 mg/dL in active hemorrhage; ≥200 mg/dL in obstetric hemorrhage. Use the cryoprecipitate fibrinogen dose result to inform your calculation.
