People on twitter absolutely hate the concept of using a central line to resuscitate a GI bleeder. This comes up a couple times per year. I think the source of this hatred is largely two-fold: A central line alone is garbage (without a Level-1 or Belmont infuser). I'll admit that.

Early resuscitation, particularly with blood products in patients with hemorrhage, is literally a lifesaver. To facilitate this, massive transfusion protocols (MTP) have been designed to rapidly deliver sizable quantities of blood products to the trauma resuscitation bay. As each minute ticks by, survival slowly diminishes.
