Blood and Triage

I have a quibble:

How many of you at verified trauma centers have a distinct trauma
response activation criterion which speaks to "patients receiving blood
to maintain vital signs?"

I can't figure out how this isn't redundant to any reasonable
hypotension criteria: if a stable patient is getting blood, it is not in
an effort to maintain vital signs.  Indeed, it is evidence that somebody
on the other end is hypocompetent.  Or am I missing something?  I miss
stuff.

Teach me.
