Initial Resuscitation with Plasma and Other Blood Components Reduced Bleeding Compared to Hetastarch in Anesthetized Swine with Uncontrolled Splenic Hemorrhage.

摘要

BACKGROUND: Damage control resuscitation recommends use of more plasma and less crystalloid as initial resuscitation in treating hemorrhage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate resuscitation with either blood components or conventional fluids on coagulation and blood loss. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Isofluorane-anesthetized, instrumented pigs (eight per group) underwent controlled hemorrhage of 24 mL/kg, 20-minute shock period, splenic injury with 15-minute initial bleeding, and hypotensive fluid resuscitation. Lactated Ringer s (LR) was infused at 45 mL/kg while hetastarch (high-molecular-weight hydroxyethyl starch 6%, Hextend, Hospira, Inc., Lake Forest, IL) and blood component (fresh-frozen plasma [FFP], 1:1 FFP:[red blood cells] RBCs, 1:4 FFP : RBCs, and fresh whole blood [FWB]) were infused at 15 mL/kg. Postresuscitation blood loss (PRBL), hemodynamics, coagulation, hematocrit, and oxygen metabolism were measured postinjury for 5 hours.
