Upon arrival, his heart rate is 124 beats per minute and his blood pressure is 86/45 mmHg. He is rushed to the CT scan which demonstrates a left sided femoral shaft fracture on scanogram, evidence of retroperitoneal hematoma, and no evidence of pelvic ring injury. After initial resuscitation and stabilization, he is cleared for the OR. What is the next most appropriate step in management?
