Objective: To compare the effects of respiratory function on different degrees of reduced thoracic volume and evaluate the tolerance of rats with reduced thoracic volume, and to assess the feasibility of thoracic volume as a measure of the severity of rib fractures.
Methods: A total of 24 10-week-old female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups (n = 6 in each group) according to the displacement degree of bilateral rib fractures (2, 4, 6, and 8 mm). The respiratory function of the rats(Tidal volume, Inspiration time, Expiration time, Breath rate, Minute volume, Peak inspiration flow) measured via whole-body barometric plethysmography before and after operation for 14 consecutive days.

Although physiological responses to hemorrhage are well-studied, hemorrhage is often accompanied by trauma, and it remains unclear how injury affects these responses. This study examined effects of extremity trauma on cardiorespiratory responses and survival to moderate (37%; H-37) or severe (50%; H-50) hemorrhage in rats. Transmitter and carotid catheter implantation and extremity trauma (fibular fracture and muscle injury) were conducted 2 wk, 24 h, and 90 min, respectively, before conscious hemorrhage.

Ketamine is the recommended analgesic on the battlefield for soldiers with hemorrhage, despite a lack of supportive evidence from laboratory or clinical studies. Hence, this study determined the effects of ketamine analgesia on cardiorespiratory responses and survival to moderate (37% blood volume; = 8/group) or severe hemorrhage (50% blood volume; = 10/group) after trauma in rats. We used a conscious hemorrhage model with extremity trauma (fibular fracture + soft tissue injury) while measuring mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and body temperature (T) by telemetry, and respiration rate (RR), minute volume (MV), and tidal volume (TV) via whole body plethysmography.

The cardiovascular system is designed to distribute a steady flow through its elastic properties. With ageing, fatigue and fracture of elastin lamellae cause a loss of elasticity defined arterial stiffness. Arterial stiffness causes changes of the pulse wave propagation through the arterial tree, which volumetric counterpart can be assessed non-invasively through photoplethysmography (PPG).
