RESUMO
This study investigated the association between different ratios of balanced salt based-crystalloid (PLASMA SOLUTION-A [CJ HealthCare, Seoul, Korea]) (the ratios of crystalloid for blood loss, 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3) or balanced salt-based colloid (VOLULYTE 6% [Fresenius Kabi, Germany]) (the ratio of colloid for blood loss, 1:1) to restore blood loss and immune response in rats with haemorrhagic shock. About 50% of total estimated blood volume was removed after anaesthesia. The fluid was administered for resuscitation after exsanguination, according to the type of fluid and the ratios of exsanguinated volume and fluid volume for resuscitation. After sacrifice, expression of immune cells in blood and tissues was evaluated. Histological analyses and syndecan-1 immunohistochemistry assays were performed on tissues. Endothelial damage according to syndecan-1 and cytokine levels in blood was also assessed. Fluid resuscitation with same, two-fold, or three-fold volumes of crystalloid, or same volume of colloid, to treat haemorrhagic shock in rats resulted in a similar increase in blood pressure. The expression of neutrophils in blood decreased significantly after colloid administration, compared to before exsanguination. Syndecan-1 expression increased after exsanguination and fluid resuscitation in all groups, without any significant difference. In conclusion, same volume of balanced salt-based crystalloid for blood loss was enough to restore BP at the choice of fluid for the management of haemorrhagic shock in the rats, compared with different ratios of crystalloid or same volume of colloid, on the aspect of immune response.
