Background: It has been suggested that fluid resuscitation for the prehospital management
of hypotensive trauma victims increases bleeding. In a model of uncontrolled hemorrhage …

An organized, practical approach to hemorrhagic shock used at Parkland Memorial Hospital
in Dallas has several notable advantages besides the primary benefit of improving survival …

We developed a fixed-volume porcine hemorrhage model that simulates the rapid
exsanguination of combat or civilian trauma victims. In this study we compared the ability of …

Background: The optimal fluid strategy for the early treatment of trauma patients remains
highly debated. Our objective was to determine the efficacy of an initial bolus of resuscitative …

Background We hypothesize that different resuscitative fluids may immediately affect the
degree of apoptosis after hemorrhagic shock. Methods Rats (n= 35) were hemorrhaged 27 …

Aim The ideal strategy for prehospital intravenous fluid resuscitation in trauma remains
unclear. Fluid resuscitation may reverse shock but aggravate bleeding by raising blood …

Objective To study the effects of different fluids on blood pressure (BP), blood lactate
clearance and mortality in patients with septic shock after early fluid resuscitation. Methods …

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 …

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 …

We compared canine systemic and cerebral hemodynamics after resuscitation from
hemorrhagic shock with 4 mL/kg (a volume approximating 12% of shed blood volume) of …
