Microcirculatory perfusion is improved with plasma, but not with crystalloids, in a rat polytraumatic shock model

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Traumatic shock is associated with microcirculatory dysfunction. Plasma resuscitation for traumatic shock outside the context of bleeding may exert benefit by augmenting intravascular volume and inhibiting endotheliopathy. However, its effects on microcirculatory perfusion and tissue oxygenation in trauma remain poorly understood ...

Elevating the standards of hypofibrinogenemia in trauma: Higher thresholds of admission fibrinogen predict mortality and organ dysfunction

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The precise thresholds at which admission fibrinogen predicts mortality and organ dysfunction in trauma patients are unknown. Study Design and Methods Retrospective study at a single trauma center. Inclusion criteria: 18–89 years, traumatic mechanism, transported from scene, and fibrinogen obtained within 30‐min of arrival ...

Implementation of earlier antibiotic administration in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock in Japan: a descriptive analysis of a prospective observational study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Time to antibiotic administration is a key element in sepsis care; however, it is difficult to implement sepsis care bundles. Additionally, sepsis is different from other emergent conditions including acute coronary syndrome, stroke, or ...

The effect of arthroscopic lavage volume on bacterial culture of egress fluid in horses with experimentally induced septic arthritis and synovitis

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate if high‐volume lavage results in a negative bacterial culture of egress fluid, regardless of pathogen in an experimental model of equine septic arthritis. Study design Experimental study. Animals A total of 11 horses in three groups (lipopolysaccharide [LPS] Group 1, n = 4; Escherichia coli [E.

Impact of Plasma-Lyte pH 7.4 on acid-base status and hemodynamics in a model of controlled hemorrhagic shock

open access: yesClinics, 2011
OBJECTIVE: Intravenous infusion of crystalloid solutions is a cornerstone of the treatment of hemorrhagic shock. However, crystalloid solutions can have variable metabolic acid-base effects, perpetuating or even aggravating shock-induced metabolic ...
