Blood product or Hextend resuscitation with open or closed abdominal management during simulated aeromedical evacuation

Effects of Early Altitude Exposure on the Open Abdomen After Laparotomy in Trauma.

Model: Controlled haemorrhage to a systolic blood pressure of 25 mmHg with laparotomy, followed by simulated aeromedical evacuation as 1 h hypobaric hypoxia at 8,000 feet

Simulated aeromedical evacuation did not alter survival, acid-base balance or the inflammatory response, although animals with open abdomens showed higher serum IL-10 and TNF-alpha, intestinal IL-6 and IL-10 and pulmonary myeloperoxidase.

Morphological validation of hydroxyethylstarch use during the acute period of severe brain injury

Model: Severe brain injury in rats studied during the acute post-injury period with assessment of the cerebral microcirculatory bed and blood-brain barrier

Intravenous 10 percent hydroxyethyl starch produced positive changes in the morphometric values of cerebral capillaries, with reduced vascular permeability and reduced cerebral tissue oedema, supporting its use as a component of infusion therapy in severe brain injury.
