A computer-simulation model of prehospital hemorrhage and fluid resuscitation was used to
determine under what circumstances it is advantageous to begin fluid resuscitation in the …

The benefit of IV fluid therapy in the prehospital management of hemorrhagic shock is
unproven. We used a reproducible, lightly anesthetized model of porcine continuous …

The ability to deliver large volumes of intravenous (IV) fluids may be critical to the successful
prehospital resuscitation of hypovolemic patients. We compared the time required to deliver …

The most efficacious means of prehospital volume resuscitation of the trauma patient has
been debated for many years; more recent discussion has questioned the indications for any …

The authors have reported previously that small-volume resuscitation (1.8 [chi] bled volume)
with 0.9% NaCl restores blood volume and attenuates hormonal responses after large …

Background: Hemorrhagic shock is a common clinic emergency case. The fluid resuscitation
method in the presurgical care of hypotensive trauma patients is open to debate. This study …

Background Recent studies have challenged current guidelines for prehospital fluid
resuscitation. However, long-term studies evaluating the consequences of fluid restriction in …

Historically, hemorrhage accounts for the primary cause of death on the battlefield in
conventional warfare. In addition, hemorrhage was associated with 85% of potentially …

A computer model incorporating known behavior of the cardiovascular system and
intravascular: interstitial fluid exchange was designed which allowed bleeding rate, IV …

The Advanced Trauma Life Support guidelines recommend an initial rapid infusion of fluid (1-
2 L) in trauma and hemorrhage victims as a diagnostic procedure to aid treatment decisions …
