MORPHOMETRIC ROADMAPS TO IMPROVE ACCURATE DEVICE DELIVERY FOR FLUOROSCOPY-FREE RESUSCITATIVE ENDOVASCULAR BALLOON OCCLUSION OF THE AORTA

摘要

BackgroundUncontrolled hemorrhage from vessel injuries within the torso remains a significant source of prehospital trauma mortality. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta can effectively control non-compressible hemorrhage, but this minimally invasive technique relies heavily upon imaging not available in the field. Our goal was to develop morphometric roadmaps to enhance the safety and accuracy of fluoroscopy-free endovascular navigation of hemorrhage control devices.
