  1. 4F-PCC = four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate, GCS = Glasgow Coma Scale, IQR = interquartile range, SD = standard deviation
  2. aBlood pressure reported was an average of measurements upon arrival and immediately prior to reversal agent administration for both cohorts
  3. bNot included in the propensity score model due to lack of heterogeneity between groups at baseline
  4. cIntracranial hemorrhage types add up to > 100% given a portion of patients had multicompartment bleeds
  5. dThe median (IQR) dose was 2028 units (1728–2393) for patients receiving 25 units/kg and 3443 units (2911–4208) for those receiving 50 units/kg
