RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Non-compressible torso hemorrhagic (NCTH) shock is the leading cause of potentially survivable trauma on the battlefield. New hypotensive drug therapies are urgently required to resuscitate and protect the heart and brain following NCTH. Our aim was to examine the strengths and limitations of permissive hypotension and discuss the development of small-volume adenosine, lidocaine, and Mg2+ (ALM) fluid resuscitation in rats and pigs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: For review of permissive hypotension, a literature search was performed from inception up to November 2023 using PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases, with inclusion of animal studies, clinical trials and reviews with military and clinical relevance. For the preclinical study, adult female pigs underwent laparoscopic liver resection. After 30 minutes of bleeding, animals were resuscitated with 4 mL/kg 3% NaCl ± ALM bolus followed 60 minutes later with 4 h 3 mL/kg/h 0.9% NaCl ± ALM drip (n = 10 per group), then blood transfusion. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac output (CO) were continuously measured via a left ventricular pressure catheter and pulmonary artery catheter, respectively. Systemic vascular resistance (SVR) was calculated using the formula: 80 × (MAP - CVP)/CI. Oxygen delivery was calculated as the product of CO and arterial oxygen content. RESULTS: Targeting a MAP of â¼50 mmHg can be harmful or beneficial, depending on how CO and SVR are regulated. A theoretical example shows that for the same MAP of 50 mmHg, a higher CO and lower SVR can lead to a nearly 2-fold increase in O2 supply. We further show that in animal models of NCTH, 3% NaCl ALM bolus and 0.9% NaCl ALM drip induce a hypotensive, high flow, vasodilatory state with maintained tissue O2 supply and neuroprotection. ALM therapy increases survival by resuscitating the heart, reducing internal bleeding by correcting coagulopathy, and decreasing secondary injury. CONCLUSIONS: In rat and pig models of NCTH, small-volume ALM therapy resuscitates at hypotensive pressures by increasing CO and reducing SVR. This strategy is associated with heart and brain protection and maintained tissue O2 delivery. Translational studies are required to determine reproducibility and optimal component dosing. ALM therapy may find wide utility in prehospital and far-forward military environments.

INTRODUCTION: Many trauma patients die from hemorrhagic shock in the military and civilian settings. Although two-thirds of hemorrhagic shock victims die of reasons other than exsanguination, such as the consequent cytokine storm, anti-inflammatory therapies failed to be utilized. Apoptotic cell-based treatments enhance innate ability to exert systemic immunomodulation as demonstrated in several clinical applications and hence might present a novel approach in hemorrhagic shock treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-two rats underwent a pressure-controlled hemorrhagic shock model and followed up for 24 hours. An infusion of apoptotic cells (Allocetra-OTS, Enlivex Therapeutics Ltd, Nes Ziona, Israel) was administered to the treatment group. Hemodynamics, blood counts, biochemistry findings, and cytokine profile were compared to a saline-resuscitated control group. RESULTS: The treatment group's mean arterial pressure decreased from 94.8 mmHg to 28.2 mmHg, resulting in an 8.13 mg/dL increase in lactate and a 1.9 g/L decrease in hemoglobin, similar to the control group. White blood cells and platelets decreased more profoundly in the treatment group. A similar cytokine profile after 24 hours was markedly attenuated in the treatment group 2 hours after bleeding. Levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1a (28.4 pg/mL vs. 179.1 pg/mL), IL-1b (47.4 pg/mL vs. 103.9 pg/mL), IL-6 (526.2 pg/mL vs. 3492 pg/mL), interferon γ (11.4 pg/mL vs. 427.9 pg/mL), and tumor necrosis factor α (19.0 pg/mL vs. 31.7 pg/mL) were profoundly lower in the treatment group. CONCLUSION: In a pressure-control hemorrhagic shock model in rats, apoptotic cell infusion showed preliminary signs of a uniform attenuated cytokine response. Apoptotic cell-based therapies might serve as a novel immunomodulatory therapy for hemorrhagic shock.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to test the therapeutic effect of carbon monoxide polyhemoglobin (polyCOHb) in haemorrhagic shock/resuscitation and its underlying mechanisms. METHODS: 48 rats were divided into two experimental parts, and 36 rats in the first experiment and 12 rats in the second experiment. In the first experimental part, 36 animals were randomly assigned to the following groups: hydroxyethyl starch group (HES group, n = 12), polyhemoglobin group (polyHb group, n = 12), and carbon monoxide polyhemoglobin group (polyCOHb group, n = 12). In the second experimental part, 12 animals were randomly assigned to the following groups: polyHb group (n = 6), and polyCOHb group (n = 6). Then the anaesthetised rats were haemorrhaged by withdrawing 50% of the animal's blood volume (BV), and resuscitated to the same volume of the animal's withdrawing BV with HES, polyHb, polyCOHb. In the first experimental part, the 72h survival rates of each groups animals were measured. In the second experimental part, the rats' mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), blood gas levels and other indicators were dynamically monitored in baseline, haemorrhagic shock (HS), at 0point resuscitation (RS 0h) and after 1 h resuscitation (RS 1h). The concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were measured by ELISA kits in both groups of rats at RS 1h. Changes in pathological sections were examined by haematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1) levels were detected by immunohistochemical analysis, while myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels were detected by immunofluorescence. DHE staining was used to determine reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. RESULTS: The 72h survival rates of the polyHb and polyCOHb groups were 50.00% (6/12) and 58.33% (7/12) respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the 8.33% (1/12) in the HES group (p < 0.05). At RS 0h and RS 1h, the HbCO content of rats in the polyCOHb group (1.90 ± 0.21, 0.80 ± 0.21) g/L were higher than those in the polyHb group (0.40 ± 0.09, 0.50 ± 0.12)g/L (p < 0.05); At RS 1h, the MDA (41.47 ± 3.89 vs 34.17 ± 3.87 nmol/ml) in the plasma, Nrf2 and HO-1 content in the colon of rats in the polyCOHb group were lower than the polyHb group. And the SOD in the plasma (605.01 ± 24.46 vs 678.64 ± 36.37) U/mg and colon (115.72 ± 21.17 vs 156.70 ± 21.34) U/mg and the MPO content in the colon in the polyCOHb group were higher than the polyHb group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In these haemorrhagic shock/resuscitation models, both polyCOHb and polyHb show similar therapeutic effects, and polyCOHb has more effective effects in maintaining MAP, correcting acidosis, reducing inflammatory responses than that in polyHb.

BACKGROUND: Fiberoptic-guided intubation is considered as "gold standard" of difficult airway management. Management of the airway in prone position in patients with severe trauma presenting with penetrating waist and hip injury poses a major challenge to the anesthesiologist. CASE PRESENTATION: A man presented with severe multiple trauma and hemorrhagic shock as a result of an industrial accident with several deformed steel bars penetrating the left lower waist and hip. It was decided to schedule an exploratory laparotomy following extracting the deformed steel bars. Successful administration of awake fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation, performed in a prone position under airway blocks and appropriate sedation, allowed for the procedure. The exploratory laparotomy revealed damage to multiple organs, which were repaired sequentially during a 7-hour surgical operation. The patient's recovery was uneventful, and he was discharged from the hospital one month after the surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Awake fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation, along with airway blocks and appropriate sedation, can be a viable option in patients with severe multiple trauma in the prone position.

BACKGROUND: Although whole blood (WB) transfusion was reported to improve survival in trauma patients with hemorrhagic shock, little is known whether a higher proportion of WB is associated with an improved survival. This study aimed to evaluate the association between whole blood ratio (WBR) and the risk of mortality in trauma patients requiring massive blood transfusion. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study from the ACS-TQIP between 2020 and 2021. Patients were aged ≥ 18 years and received WB within 4 h of hospital arrival as a part of massive blood transfusion. Study patients were categorized into four groups based on the quartiles of WBR. Primary outcome was 24-h mortality and secondary outcome was 30-day mortality. Multivariable logistic regression analysis, fitted with generalized estimating equations, was performed to adjust for confounding factors and accounted for within-hospital clustering. RESULTS: A total of 4087 patients were eligible for analysis. The median age was 37 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 27-53 years), and 85.0% of patients were male. The median number of WB transfusions was 2.3 units (IQR 2.0-4.0 units), and the total transfusion volume was 4940 ml (IQR 3350-8504). When compared to the lowest WBR quartile, the highest WBR quartile had lower adjusted 24-h mortality (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 0.61, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.46-0.81) and 30-day mortality (AOR 0.58; 95% CI 0.45-0.75). CONCLUSION: The probability of mortality consistently decreased with higher WBR in trauma patients requiring massive blood transfusion.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of early cold stored platelet transfusion compared with standard care resuscitation in patients with hemorrhagic shock. BACKGROUND: Data demonstrating the safety and efficacy of early cold stored platelet transfusion are lacking following severe injury. METHODS: A phase 2, multicenter, randomized, open label, clinical trial was performed at 5 US trauma centers. Injured patients at risk of large volume blood transfusion and the need for hemorrhage control procedures were enrolled and randomized. The intervention was the early transfusion of a single apheresis cold stored platelet unit, stored for up to 14 days versus standard care resuscitation. The primary outcome was feasibility and the principal clinical outcome for efficacy and safety was 24-hour mortality. RESULTS: Mortality at 24 hours was 5.9% in patients who were randomized to early cold stored platelet transfusion compared with 10.2% in the standard care arm (difference, -4.3%; 95% CI, -12.8% to 3.5%; P =0.26). No significant differences were found for any of the prespecified ancillary outcomes. Rates of arterial and/or venous thromboembolism and adverse events did not differ across treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In severely injured patients, early cold stored platelet transfusion is feasible, safe and did not result in a significant lower rate of 24-hour mortality. Early cold stored platelet transfusion did not result in a higher incidence of arterial and/or venous thrombotic complications or adverse events. The storage age of the cold stored platelet product was not associated with significant outcome differences. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04667468.

ABSTRACT: This review describes the necessity, evolution, and current state of prehospital blood programs in the United States. Less than 1% of 9-1-1 ground emergency medical service agencies have been able to successfully implement prehospital blood transfusions as part of a resuscitation strategy for patients in hemorrhagic shock despite estimates that annually between 54,000 and 900,000 patients may benefit from its use. The use of prehospital blood transfusions as a tool for managing hemorrhagic shock has barriers to overcome to ensure it becomes widely available to patients throughout the United States. Barriers include (1) current state Emergency Medical Services clinicians' scope of practice limitations; (2) program costs and reimbursement of blood products; (3) no centralized data collection process for prehospital hemorrhagic shock and patient outcomes; (4) collaboration between prehospital agencies, blood suppliers, and hospital clinicians and transfusion service activities. The following article identifies barriers and a proposed roadmap to reduce death due to prehospital hemorrhage.

BACKGROUND: Treatment of severe hemorrhagic shock typically involves hemostatic resuscitation with blood products. However, logistical constraints often hamper the wide distribution of commonly used blood products like whole blood. Shelf-stable blood products and blood substitutes are poised to be able to effectively resuscitate individuals in hemorrhagic shock when more conventional blood products are not readily available. METHODS: Purpose-bred adult dogs (n = 6) were anesthetized, instrumented, and subjected to hemorrhagic shock (mean arterial pressure <50 mm Hg or 40% blood volume loss). Then each dog was resuscitated with one of five resuscitation products: (1) lactated ringers solution and hetastarch (LRS/Heta), (2) canine chilled whole blood (CWB), (3) fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and packed red blood cells (pRBC), (4) canine freeze-dried plasma (FDP) and hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (HBOC), or (5) HBOC/FDP and canine lyophilized platelets (LyoPLT). Each dog was allowed to recover after the hemorrhage resuscitation event and was then subjected to another hemorrhage event and resuscitated with a different product until each dog was resuscitated with each product. RESULTS: At the time when animals were determined to be out of shock as defined by a shock index <1, mean arterial pressure (mmHg) values (mean ± standard error) were higher for FFP/pRBC (n = 5, 83.7 ± 4.5) and FDP/HBOC+LyoPLT (n = 4, 87.8 ± 2.1) as compared with WB (n = 4, 66.0 ± 13.1). A transient increase in creatinine was seen in dogs resuscitated with HBOC and FDP. Albumin and base excess increased in dogs resuscitated with HBOC and FDP products compared with LRS/heta and CWB ( p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Combinations of shelf-stable blood products compared favorably to canine CWB for resolution of shock. Further research is needed to ascertain the reliability and efficacy of these shelf-stable combinations of products in other models of hemorrhage that include a component of tissue damage as well as naturally occurring trauma.

Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) may be useful in treating exsanguinating trauma patients. This study seeks to compare rates of success, complications and time required for vascular access between ultrasound-guidance and surgical cut-down for femoral sheath insertion as a prospective observational case control study. Participating clinicians from either trauma surgery or anesthesiology were allocated to surgical cut-down or percutaneous ultrasound-guided puncture on a 1:1 ratio. Time spans to vessel identification, successful puncture, and balloon inflation were recorded. 80 study participants were recruited and allocated to 40 open cut-down approaches and 40 percutaneous ultrasound-guided approaches. REBOA catheter placement was successful in 18/40 cases (45%) using a percutaneous ultrasound guided technique and 33/40 times (83%) using the open cut-down approach (p < 0.001). Median times [in seconds] compared between percutaneous ultrasound-guided puncture and surgical cut-down were 36 (18-73) versus 117(56-213) for vessel visualization (p < 0.001), 136 (97-175) versus 183 (156-219) for vessel puncture (p < 0.001), and 375 (240-600) versus 288 (244-379) for balloon inflation (p = 0.08) overall. Access to femoral vessels for REBOA catheter placement is safer when performed by cut-down and direct visualization but can be performed faster by an ultrasound-guided technique when vessels can be identified clearly and rapidly.

BACKGROUND: Uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock is a leading cause of early death after injury. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) represents a paradigm shift in achieving hemodynamic stability and its implementation still remain controversial in different settings. The recently published UK-REBOA Randomized Clinical Trial aimed to determine the effectiveness of REBOA in patients with hemorrhagic shock, concluding its increased mortality compared with standard care alone. METHODS: An adjustment of the statistical analysis was performed and a comprehensive analysis was proposed to address the study's limitations and demonstrate that these conclusions cannot be considered as benchmarks. RESULTS: Primary and secondary outcomes were analyzed using Bayesian logistic regression and generalized linear models suitable for the outcome distribution. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups for the primary outcome (p-value 0.3341) nor in most of the secondary outcomes. The results of the principal stratum analyses (to account for intercurrent events) also did not show significant differences after the statistical analysis tests. CONCLUSION: It cannot be stated that REBOA increases mortality compared with standard care alone in trauma patients with exsanguinating hemorrhage. Further studies and adequate simulation training programs in REBOA are critical to its successful implementation within a trauma system and to identify the optimum settings and patients.

Background: Despite the widespread use of ultra-massive transfusion (UMT) as an intervention for trauma patients in hemorrhagic shock, no standard definition exists. We performed a systematic review to determine a consensus definition for UMT. Methods: A search was performed from 1979-2022. The authors screened studies defining UMT and associated outcomes as defined by our prespecified PICO questions. The PRISMA guidelines were used. Results: 1662 articles met criteria for eligibility assessment, 17 for full-text review and eight for data extraction. Only two studies demonstrated a consensus definition of UMT, which used ≥20 units of red blood cell product within 24hrs. Parameters associated with increased mortality included lower blood pressure, lower pulse and lower Glasgow Coma Score at the time of presentation and a higher injury severity score and undergoing a resuscitative thoracotomy. Conclusions: The absence of a consensus definition for UMT raises challenges from clinical, research and ethical perspectives. Based on our findings, the authors advocate for the feasibility of standardizing the definition of UMT as ≥20 units of red blood cell product within 24hrs.

INTRODUCTION: Along with recent advances in analytical technologies, tricarboxylic acid-cycle intermediates are increasingly identified as promising makers for cellular ischemia and mitochondrial dysfunction during hemorrhagic shock. For traumatized patients, the knowledge of the role of lipid oxidation substrates is sparse. In this study, we aimed to analyze the dynamics of systemic acylcarnitine (AcCa) release in a standardized polytrauma model with hemorrhagic shock. METHODS: Fifty-two male pigs (50 ± 5 kg) were randomized into two groups: group isolated fracture was subject to a standardized femur shaft fracture, and group polytrauma was subject to a femur fracture, followed by blunt chest trauma, liver laceration, and a pressure-controlled hemorrhagic shock for 60 minutes. Resuscitation was performed with crystalloids. Fractures were stabilized by intramedullary nailing. Venous samples were collected at six time points (baseline, trauma, resuscitation, 2 hours, 4 hours, and 6 hours). Lipidomic analysis was performed via liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Measurements were collated with clinical markers and near-infrared spectrometry measurements of tissue perfusion. Longitudinal analyses were performed with linear mixed models, and Spearman's correlations were calculated. A p value of 0.05 was defined as threshold for statistical significance. RESULTS: From a total of 303 distinct lipids, we identified two species of long-chain AcCas. Both showed a highly significant ( p < 0.001) twofold increase after hemorrhagic shock in group polytrauma that promptly normalized after resuscitation. This increase was associated with a significant decrease of the base excess ( p = 0.005), but recovery after resuscitation was faster. For both AcCas, there were significant correlations with decreased muscle tissue oxygen delivery ( p = 0.008, p = 0.003) and significant time-lagged correlations with the increase of creatine kinase ( p < 0.001, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Our results point to plasma AcCas as a possible indicator for mitochondrial dysfunction and cellular ischemia in hemorrhagic shock. The more rapid normalization after resuscitation in comparison with acid base changes may warrant further investigation.

Hemoglobin vesicles (HbVs), considered as red blood cell substitutes, are liposomes encapsulating purified hemoglobin, with a phospholipid bilayer membrane (diameter: 250 nm; P50, 28 Torr). In this study, we aimed to investigate HbV function during hemorrhagic shock in lung resection and analyze the details of oxygen delivery. Left pneumonectomy was performed in dogs under mechanical ventilation, followed by rapid exsanguination of approximately 30% of the total circulating blood volume, which led to shock, reducing the mean arterial pressure (MAP) by approximately 60% of baseline. Subsequently, either 5% human serum albumin (HSA) or HbVs suspended in 5% HSA were infused for resuscitation. The MAP only recovered to 75% of baseline after HSA administration, but fully recovered (100%) after HbV administration, with significant differences between the groups (P < 0.005). Oxygen delivery was restored in the HbV group and was significantly higher than that in the HSA group (P < 0.0001). The infusion of HbVs dispersed in a 5% HSA solution compensated for the rapid loss of approximately 30% of the total circulating blood volume in a dog pneumonectomy model, even with impaired lung function. Thus, HbVs can be used for resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock during thoracic surgery.

OBJECTIVE: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is designed to manage severe hemorrhagic shock. Popularized in medical care during military conflicts, the concept has emerged as a lifesaving technique that is utilized around the United States. Literature on risks of REBOA placement, especially vascular injuries, are not well-reported. Our goal was to assess the incidence of vascular injury from REBOA placement and the risk factors associated with injury and death among these patients at our institution. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of all patients who underwent REBOA placement between September 2017 and June 2022 at our Level 1 Trauma Center. The primary outcome variable was the presence of an injury related to REBOA insertion or use. Secondary outcomes studied were limb loss, the need for dialysis, and mortality. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, χ2, and t-tests as appropriate for the variable type. RESULTS: We identified 99 patients who underwent REBOA placement during the study period. The mean age of patients was 43.1 ± 17.2 years, and 67.7% (67/99) were males. The majority of injuries were from blunt trauma (79.8%; 79/99). Twelve of the patients (12.1%; 12/99) had a vascular injury related to REBOA placement. All but one required intervention. The complications included local vessel injury (58.3%; 7/12), distal embolization (16.7%; 2/12), excessive bleeding requiring vascular consult (8.3%; 1/12), pseudoaneurysm requiring intervention (8.3%; 1/12), and one incident of inability to remove the REBOA device (8.3%; 1/12). The repairs were performed by vascular surgery (75%; 9/12), interventional radiology (16.7%; 2/12), and trauma surgery (8.3%; 1/12). There was no association of age, gender, race, and blunt vs penetrating injury to REBOA-related complications. Mortality in this patient population was high (40.4%), but there was no association with REBOA-related complications. Ipsilateral limb loss occurred in two patients with REBOA-related injuries, but both were due to their injuries and not to REBOA-related ischemia. CONCLUSIONS: Although vascular complications are not unusual in REBOA placement, there does not appear to be an association with limb loss, dialysis, or mortality if they are addressed promptly. Close coordination between vascular surgeons and trauma surgeons is essential in patients undergoing REBOA placement.

INTRODUCTION: Whole blood resuscitation for hemorrhagic shock in trauma represents an opportunity to correct coagulopathy in trauma while also supplying red blood cells. The production of microvesicles in stored whole blood and their effect on its hemostatic parameters have not been described in previous literature. We hypothesized that microvesicles in aged stored whole blood are procoagulant and increase thrombin production via phosphatidylserine. METHODS: Whole blood was obtained from male C57BL/6 male mice and stored in anticoagulant solution for up to 10 days. At intervals, stored whole blood underwent examination with rotational thromboelastography, and platelet-poor plasma was prepared for analysis of thrombin generation. Microvesicles were prepared from 10-day-old whole blood aliquots and added to fresh whole blood or platelet-poor plasma to assess changes in coagulation and thrombin generation. Microvesicles were treated with recombinant mouse lactadherin prior to addition to plasma to inhibit phosphatidylserine's role in thrombin generation. RESULTS: Aged murine whole blood had decreased fibrin clot formation compared with fresh samples with decreased plasma fibrinogen levels. Thrombin generation in plasma from aged blood increased over time of storage. The addition of microvesicles to fresh plasma resulted in increased thrombin generation compared with controls. When phosphatidylserine on microvesicles was blocked with lactadherin, there was no difference in the endogenous thrombin potential, but the generation of thrombin was blunted with lower peak thrombin levels. CONCLUSION: Cold storage of murine whole blood results in decreased fibrinogen levels and fibrin clot formation. Aged whole blood demonstrates increased thrombin generation, and this is due in part to microvesicle production in stored whole blood. One mechanism by which microvesicles are procoagulant is by phosphatidylserine expression on their membranes.

ABSTRACT: Hemorrhagic shock (HS) is accompanied by a pronounced activation of the inflammatory response in which acute lung injury (ALI) is one of the most frequent consequences. Among the pivotal orchestrators of this inflammatory cascade, extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP) emerges as a noteworthy focal point, rendering it as a promising target for the management of inflammation and tissue injury. Recently, we have reported that oligonucleotide poly(A) mRNA mimic termed A 12 selectively binds to the RNA binding region of eCIRP and inhibits eCIRP binding to its receptor TLR4. Furthermore, in vivo administration of eCIRP induces lung injury in healthy mice and that mouse deficient in CIRP showed protection from inflammation-associated lung injury. We hypothesize that A 12 inhibits systemic inflammation and ALI in HS. To test the impacts of A 12 on systemic and lung inflammation, extent of inflammatory cellular infiltration and resultant lung damage were evaluated in a mouse model of HS. Male mice were subjected to controlled hemorrhage with a mean arterial pressure of 30 mm Hg for 90 min and then resuscitated with Ringer's lactate solution containing phosphate-buffered saline (vehicle) or A 12 at a dose of 4 nmol/g body weight (treatment). The infusion volume was twice that of the shed blood. At 4 h after resuscitation, mice were euthanized, and blood and lung tissues were harvested. Blood and tissue markers of inflammation and injury were evaluated. Serum markers of injury (lactate dehydrogenase, alanine transaminase, and blood urea nitrogen) and inflammation (TNF-α, IL-6) were increased after HS and A 12 treatment significantly decreased their levels. A 12 treatment also decreased lung levels of TNF-α, MIP-2, and KC mRNA expressions. Lung histological injury score, neutrophil infiltration (Ly6G staining and myeloperoxidase activity), and lung apoptosis were significantly attenuated after A 12 treatment. Our study suggests that the capacity of A 12 in attenuating HS-induced ALI and may provide novel perspectives in developing efficacious pharmaceutics for improving hemorrhage prognosis.

INTRODUCTION: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has the potential to cause clinically relevant systemic ischemic burden with long durations of aortic occlusion (AO). We aimed to examine the association between balloon occlusion time and clinical complications and mortality outcomes in patients undergoing zone 1 REBOA. METHODS: A retrospective cohort analysis of American Association for the Surgery of Trauma Aortic Occlusion for Resuscitation in Trauma and Acuteregistry patients with Zone 1 REBOA between 2013 and 2022 was performed. Patients with cardiopulmonary resuscitation on arrival or who did not survive past the emergency department were excluded. Total AO times were categorized as follows: <15 min, 15-30 min, 31-60 min, and >60 min. Clinical and procedural variables and in-hospital outcomes were compared across groups using bivariate and multivariate regression analyses. RESULTS: There were 327 cases meeting inclusion criteria (n = 51 < 15 min, 83 15-30 min, 98 31-60 min, and 95 > 60 min, respectively). AO >60 min had higher admission lactate (8 ± 6; P = 0.004) compared to all other time groups, but injury severity score, heart rate, and systolic blood pressure were similar. Group average times from admission to definitive hemorrhage control ranged from 82 to 103 min and were similar across groups (85 min in AO >60 group). Longer AO times were associated with greater red blood cell, fresh frozen plasma transfusions (P < 0.001), and vasopressor use (P = 0.001). Mortality was greatest in the >60 min group (73%) versus the <15 min, 15-30 min, and 31-60 min groups (53%, 43%, and 45%, P < 0.001). With adjustment for injury severity score, systolic blood pressure, and lactate, AO >60 min had greater mortality (OR 3.7, 95% CI 1.6-9.4; P < 0.001) than other AO duration groups. Among 153 survivors, AO >60 min had a higher rate of multiple organ failure (15.4%) compared to the other AO durations (0%, 0%, and 4%, P = 0.02). There were no differences in amputation rates (0.7%) or spinal cord ischemia (1.4%). acute kidney injury was seen in 41% of >60 min versus 21%, 27%, and 33%, P = 0.42. CONCLUSIONS: Though greater preocclusion physiologic injury may have been present, REBOA-induced ischemic insult was correlated with poor patient outcomes, specifically, REBOA inflation time >60 min had higher rates of mortality and multiple organ failure. Minimizing AO duration should be prioritized, and AO should not delay achieving definitive hemostasis. Partial REBOA may be a solution to extend safe AO time and deserves further study.

This study aims to investigate the effects of hypoxically stored Red Blood Cells (RBCs) in a rat model of traumatic brain injury followed by severe hemorrhagic shock (HS) and resuscitation. RBCs were made hypoxic using an O2 depletion system (Hemanext Inc. Lexington, MA) and stored for 3 weeks. Experimental animals underwent craniotomy and blunt brain injury followed by severe HS. Rats were resuscitated with either fresh RBCs (FRBCs), 3-week-old hypoxically stored RBCs (HRBCs), or 3-week-old conventionally stored RBCs (CRBCs). Resuscitation was provided via RBCs transfusion equivalent to 70 % of the shed blood and animals were followed for 2 h. The control group was comprised of healthy animals that were not instrumented or injured. Post-resuscitation hemodynamics and lactate levels were improved with FRBCs and HRBCs, and markers of organ injury in the liver (Aspartate aminotransferase [AST]), lung (chemokine ligand 1 [CXCL-1] and Leukocytes count), and heart (cardiac troponin, Interleukin- 6 [IL-6] and Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha[TNF-α]) were lower with FRBCs and HRBCs resuscitation compared to CRBCs. Following reperfusion, biomarkers for oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, and RNA/DNA injury were assessed. Superoxide dismutase [SOD] levels in the HRBCs group were similar to the FRBCs group and levels in both groups were significantly higher than CRBCs. Catalase levels were not different than control values in the FRBCs and HRBCs groups but significantly lower with CRBCs. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances [Tbars] levels were higher for both CRBCs and HRBCs. Hypoxically stored RBCs show few differences from fresh RBCs in resuscitation from TBI + HS and decreased organ injury and oxidative stress compared to conventionally stored RBCs.
