Hypothermia does not hasten death during uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock presenting as the "triad of death" in rats.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hypothermia on survival and coagulopathy in hemorrhagic shock presenting as the "triad of death".

Methods: Sixteen rats were lightly anesthetized with halothane while maintaining spontaneous breathing. The triad of death was simulated by inducing hypothermia (32.

Hemodilution as a result of aggressive fluid resuscitation aggravates coagulopathy in a rat model of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.

Background: The relationship between dilution caused by fluid resuscitation and blood coagulability during ongoing, uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock (UHS) remains unclear. We hypothesized that dilution caused by fluid resuscitation may impair blood coagulability in UHS.

Methods: Eighteen rats underwent under halothane anesthesia.
