Regarding the answers to Dr. Mattox's three questions about open  abdomen: 
Yes, Yes, and Yes.
Also, we've  adopted a permissive  hypotension + limited crystalloid + 1:1 
pRBCs to FFP approach for life  threatening hemorrhage in the abdomen and early 
definitive closure seems much  easier to achieve.
