Effects on intracranial pressure of resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock with hypertonic saline versus lactated Ringer's solution

Hypertonic saline (2400 mOsm/L) has been used successfully for fluid resuscitation of dogs subjected to severe hemorrhagic shock. This study compared the effects of resuscitation with hypertonic saline vs. lactated Ringer's solution on intracranial pressure (ICP) in dogs subjected to 30 min of sustained hypovolemic shock. Hypotension was produced by rapid withdrawal of blood until mean arterial pressure was 50 mm Hg, maintained at that level by withdrawal or infusion of blood over the next 30 min as necessary. Eight animals were resuscitated with hypertonic saline solution and nine with lactated Ringer's solution. Both solutions restored systolic blood pressure and cardiac output to control values. However, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure did not return to control values. The most prominent difference between the two groups was in ICP measured after resuscitation. ICP was lower in dogs resuscitated with hypertonic saline than in dogs resuscitated with lactated Ringer's solution (p = .029). Hypertonic saline fluid resuscitation may represent a potential alternative when aggravation of intracranial hypertension during resuscitation would place a patient at greater risk.     

Resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock with normal saline versus lactated Ringer's: effects on oxygenation, extravascular lung water, and hemodynamics

Which type of fluid to use in the resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock, within and between crystalloids or colloids, is still a matter of debate. In this context, with respect to organ dysfunction, early detection of lung injury is widely considered of particular clinical importance. For these purposes, the transpulmonary thermodilution technique that enables one to assess extravascular lung water as a marker of pulmonary edema is applied in the clinical setting. In this issue of Critical Care, Phillips and colleagues describe that early resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock in pigs with two different crystalloid solutions – normal saline or Ringer's lactate – had little impact on oxygenation when the resuscitation volume was <250 ml/kg. Ringer's lactate had more favorable effects than normal saline, however, on extravascular lung water, pH, and blood pressure but not on oxygenation. Although several pathophysiological aspects remain unanswered, these data are interesting in so far as they indicate that clinically applied amounts of crystalloids per se do not negatively influence pulmonary function, while with larger amounts the type of fluid has different effects on the extent of fluid extravasation in the lungs.     

Vasopressin mediates the pressor effect of hypertonic saline solution in endotoxic shock

The administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to experimental animals results in a septic shock-like syndrome characterized by hypotension, and the hemodynamic management includes the restoration of adequate tissue perfusion by administration of resuscitation fluids to achieve an effective circulating volume. In the present study, we sought to investigate the effects of hypertonic saline solution administration on vasopressin secretion and mean arterial pressure in endotoxic shock. The pressor response to isotonic saline solution (0.9% sodium chloride) or hypertonic saline (7.5% sodium chloride, 4 mL/kg i.v.) was evaluated 4 h after LPS (1.5 mg/kg) administration. At this moment, plasma vasopressin did not differ from control; however, the blood pressure was lower in the LPS-treated group. The hypertonic saline administration was followed by an immediate recovery of blood pressure and also by an increase in plasma vasopressin levels compared with isotonic saline solution. The vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist (10 microg/kg, i.v., 5 min before infusion) blocked the pressor response to hypertonic saline solution. These data suggest that the recovery of blood pressure after hypertonic saline solution administration during endotoxic shock is mediated by vasopressin secretion.     

Five percent human albumin in lactated Ringer's solution for resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock: efficacy and cardiopulmonary consequences

Using an ovine model of acute hemorrhagic shock, we evaluated the utility of 5% albumin in lactated Ringer's (5% ALR) solution as a resuscitation solution. After instrumentation and obtaining baseline values for BP, mean arterial pressure (MAP), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (WP), CVP, cardiac output, extravascular lung water (EVLW), and blood gases (mixed venous and arterial), animals were rapidly exsanguinated to an MAP of 50 mm Hg. After 30 min at this pressure, measurements were repeated and 5% ALR was administered until two of three variables (WP, MAP, cardiac output) were restored to baseline values. The administration of 5% ALR was continued as needed to maintain baseline values of these variables. Sixty minutes later, data were again recorded. For induction of shock, 15.7 +/- 5.2 ml of blood/kg body weight was removed. Pulmonary artery pressure, WP, MAP, and cardiac output all significantly decreased with shock. After resuscitation, all values except MAP returned to baseline. The resuscitation volume of 5% ALR was 25.2 +/- 18.4 ml/kg. There were no changes in EVLW or intrapulmonary shunt. Oxygen delivery was significantly compromised during shock but returned to baseline after resuscitation. We conclude that in a model such as ours, 5% ALR can reverse the hemodynamic effects of acute hemorrhagic shock.

Effects of hemorrhage and lactated Ringer's resuscitation on coagulation and fibrinogen metabolism in swine

Hemorrhagic coagulopathy is a significant complication after traumatic injury, and much of the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We investigated the changes in fibrinogen metabolism and coagulation after a moderate hemorrhage and resuscitation. Pigs of either sex (weight, 40.9+/-0.8 kg) were anesthetized and instrumented with arterial and venous catheters and a thermodilution cardiac output catheter. Pigs were randomized into control (C; n=6), hemorrhage (H; n=6), and hemorrhage and resuscitation (H-LR; n=6) groups. Hemorrhage was induced by bleeding 35% of total blood volume for 30 min in H and H-LR groups. Resuscitation in H-LR group was performed using lactated Ringer's solution (LR) at 3 times the bled volume for 30 min. Fibrinogen metabolism was quantified using a primed constant infusion of 1-13C-phenylalanine (6 h) and d5-phenylalanine (4 h) and subsequent analysis by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry, together with measurements of hemodynamics (hourly) and coagulation by thromboelastography (at baseline and 4 h after hemorrhage and resuscitation). Hemorrhage caused decreases in arterial pH and base excess, and an increase in arterial lactate content. Fluid resuscitation corrected these changes toward normal levels. Fibrinogen level was unchanged in C and decreased to 76%+/-4% in H and to 73%+/-3% in H-LR (both P<0.05, compared with baseline) after hemorrhage and resuscitation. Fibrinogen breakdown was increased from 3.0+/-0.4 mg kg-1 h-1 in C to 5.4+/-0.6 mg kg-1 h-1 in H and to 5.6+/-0.5 mg kg-1 h-1 in H-LR (both P<0.05, compared with control), but synthesis was unchanged. The clotting reaction time was unchanged in C and shortened to 93%+/-3% in H and to 91%+/-1% in H-LR (both P<0.05, compared with baseline). We conclude that hemorrhagic shock caused accelerated fibrinogen breakdown and coagulation. The LR resuscitation reduced tissue hypoxia indexes but did not affect the changes in fibrinogen metabolism and coagulation from hemorrhage. Thus, effective treatment of hemorrhage should include combining standard-of-care resuscitation with interventions to correct alterations in coagulation.     

高渗氯化钠溶液复苏对失血性休克大鼠T淋巴细胞亚群的早期影响

目的 探讨高渗氯化钠溶液(HS)复苏对失血性休克大鼠T淋巴细胞亚群的早期影响及其意义.方法 将18只SD大鼠制作成重度失血性休克模型,随机分为假手术组(Sham组)、高渗氯化钠溶液复苏组(HS组)和等渗盐水复苏组(NS组),每组6只,采用双抗体标记流式细胞分析技术测定休克前及复苏/急救后各组大鼠的外周血CD4+、CD8+的百分率及二者比值CD4+/CD8+.结果 在失血性休克/复苏/急救后的早期阶段,HS组和NS组大鼠的外周血CD4+细胞亚群表达均显著升高(P＜0.05),HS组大鼠的外周血CD8+细胞亚群表达也有所升高,而NS组大鼠的外周血CD8+细胞亚群表达则无明显改变,从而导致NS组大鼠的外周血CD4+/CD8+比值较Sham组和HS组明显增高,差异具有统计学意义(P＜0.05).结论 在重度失血性休克大鼠模型中,与NS复苏相比较,HS复苏能明显减轻复苏后早期的免疫炎症调节功能紊乱,有助于维持T细胞的辅助-抑制免疫炎症调节网络的平衡.

Effects of hypertonic saline solution on mesenteric microcirculation

We evaluated systemic and microvascular effects of hypertonic NaCl solution on normovolemic and hemorrhaged animals. Forty-three Wistar rats (186 +/- 4 g, mean +/- SEM) were anesthetized with pentobarbital and cannulated for mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and mean pulse pressure (MPP) monitoring and blood withdrawal. Diameters of 126 arterioles and 88 venules of the exteriorized mesentery were studied by using intravital microscopy. Microvascular blood flow was calculated from diameter and red blood cell velocity measurements. The protocol consisted of 15 min control, 30 min hypotension (MAP = 52.9 +/- 0.9 mmHg, hemorrhaged vol. = 17.1 +/- 0.7 mL/kg) and 60 min post-infusion of either normal (0.9%) or hypertonic saline (7.5%, 4 mL/kg). Normovolemic animals showed no systemic or microvascular effects of hypertonic saline. Hemorrhagic hypotension resulted in HR fall that was not changed after infusions. Hypertonic infusion reversed MPP decrease during hypotension but only partially restored MAP and microvascular blood flow. Venules did not change diameter during protocols. During hypotension, 24% of arterioles displayed vasomotion (38% of the rats) with low- and high-frequency components present in 74% and 87% of arterioles, respectively. Arterioles with vasomotion during hypotension had larger control diameters (28.9 +/- 2.0 microm) and contracted more (30.8 +/- 4.1%) than arterioles without vasomotion (18.7 +/- 1.2 microm and 8.1 +/- 1.5%, respectively). Mean arteriolar diameter did not change after infusions. After hypertonic solution, the number of vessels showing vasomotion increased 80%, frequency of vasomotion was unchanged, and amplitude increased. These findings may help to explain some of the mechanisms underlying resuscitation effects of hypertonic infusions during hemorrhagic hypotension.

Comparison of normal saline, hypertonic saline and hypertonic saline colloid resuscitation fluids in an infant animal model of hypovolemic shock

PurposeIncorrect resuscitation after hypovolemic shock is a major contributor to preventable pediatric death. Several studies have demonstrated that small volumes of hypertonic or hypertonic–hyperoncotic saline can be an effective initial resuscitation solution. However, there are no pediatric studies to recommend their use. The aim of this study is to determine if in an infant animal model of hemorrhagic shock, the use of hypertonic fluids, as opposed to isotonic crystalloids, would improve global hemodynamic and perfusion parameters.MethodsExperimental, randomized animal study including thirty-four 2-to-3-month-old piglets. 30 min after controlled 30 mL kg^?1 bleed, pigs were randomized to receive either normal saline (NS) 30 mL kg^?1 (n = 11), 3% hypertonic saline (HS) 15 mL kg^?1 (n = 12), or 5% albumin plus 3% hypertonic saline (AHS) 15 mL kg^?1 (n = 11).ResultsHigh baseline heart rate (HR) and low mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac index (CI), brain tissue oxygenation index (bTOI), and lactate were recorded 30 min after volume withdrawal, with no significant differences between groups. Thirty minutes after volume replacement there were no significant differences between groups for HR (NS, 188 ± 14; HS, 184 ± 14; AHS, 151 ± 14 bpm); MAP (NS, 80 ± 7; HS, 86 ± 7; AHS, 87 ± 7 mmHg); CI (NS, 4.1 ± 0.4; HS, 3.9 ± 0.4; AHS, 5.1 ± 0.4 mL min^?1 m^?2); lactate (NS, 2.8 ± 0.7; HS, 2.3 ± 0.6; AHS, 2.4 ± 0.6 mmol L^?1); bTOI (NS, 43.9 ± 2.2; HS, 40.1 ± 2.5; AHS, 46.1 ± 2.3%).ConclusionsIn this model of hypovolemic shock, hypertonic fluids achieved similar end-points as twice the volume of NS. Animals treated with albumin plus hypertonic saline presented prolonged increase in blood volume parameters and recovery of the oxygen debt.     

Ringer's acetate and dextran-70 with or without hypertonic saline in endotoxin-induced shock in pigs.

The effects of Ringer's acetate, 6% dextran-70, 7.5% NaCl, and the combination of 7.5% NaCl and dextran-70 were tested in resuscitation from endotoxin shock induced by continuous iv infusion of Escherichia coli endotoxin in pigs. After about 3 h, a reproducible shock state was achieved and treatment was started, governed by the left atrial pressure. The hypertonic solutions (7.5% NaCl and 7.5% NaCl in dextran-70) did not show any overall advantages over the isotonic solutions (Ringer's acetate and dextran-70). Only transient beneficial hemodynamic effects lasting less than 30 min after infusion were seen. When dextran-70 was administered, cardiovascular function was markedly improved and oxygen delivery (DO2) and survival were significantly higher compared with the crystalloid groups (Ringer's acetate and 7.5% NaCl). Administration of large amounts of Ringer's acetate resulted in an immediate deterioration of pulmonary function. It was difficult to elevate left atrial pressure or even to keep it at baseline level, and cardiac index was only transiently increased. The overall result was a deterioration of DO2 and poor survival compared with the dextran-70 treated pigs. We conclude that dextran-70 is superior to Ringer's acetate in resuscitation from endotoxin-induced shock in pigs. Furthermore, we found no role for the use of hypertonic saline, alone or in combination with dextran, in the treatment of this type of prolonged endotoxin shock.

Resuscitation of haemorrhagic shock with normal saline vs. lactated Ringer's: effects on oxygenation, extravascular lung water and haemodynamics

Introduction  

Pulmonary oedema and impairment of oxygenation are reported as common consequences of haemorrhagic shock and resuscitation (HSR). Surprisingly, there is little information in the literature examining differences in crystalloid type during the early phase of HSR regarding the development of pulmonary oedema, the impact on oxygenation and the haemodynamic response. These experiments were designed to determine if differences exist because of crystalloid fluid type in the development of oedema, the impact on oxygenation and the haemodynamic response to fluid administration in early HSR.     

Lactated Ringer's solution versus 3% albumin for resuscitation of a lethal intestinal ischemic shock in rats

Previously, we determined that a colloid concentration of about 3% was optimal for resuscitation of lethal ischemic intestinal shock model in rats. Maximal volumes of lactated Ringer's solution (RL) alone only expanded plasma volume (PV) to 80% of preshock level, while increasing volumes of 3% albumin (ALB) in RL linearly expanded PV up to twice the preshock level. This study compares the effect of RL and ALB on survival and PV in 175 rats. The solutions were given in volumes to induce suboptimal PV expansion, requiring 10 and 44 ml/100 g body weight (bwt) of ALB and RL, respectively. ALB (20 ml/100 g bwt) was then given to induce a PV above the preshock level. Shock was induced by exteriorizing the small intestine and occluding the superior mesenteric vessels for 75 min. PV was estimated using Hct. Therefore, infusions were given continuously for 6 h in volumes that maintained a stable Hct. Untreated shocked animals developed hemoconcentration (Hct 58%) corresponding to a PV of 56% of preshock level, with 2% (1/53) of the animals surviving 24 h. The maximum effect of RL (44 ml/100 g bwt) was to expand PV to 80% of preshock level, with a 32% 24-h survival rate. Only 23% as much ALB (10 ml/100 g bwt) was needed to induce similar blood volume expansion with 24-h survival rate of 46%. When the larger volume of ALB (20 ml/100 g bwt) was used, PV expanded to 115% of preshock level, and 24-h survival to 76%, greater than that achieved with either the smaller volume of ALB or RL alone (p less than .01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
