Load-independent left ventricular (LV) function has been recently shown to be reversibly depressed in septic shock. The peak systolic pressure to end systolic volume ratio (PSP/ESV) is a load independent measure of LV function. We evaluated PSP/ESV in a porcine model of hemorrhagic shock. Hemorrhagic shock was induced in five adult swine by arterial bleeding to a mean arterial pressure of 45-65 mmHg. This hypotension was maintained for 30 min, and then each animal was resuscitated to baseline mean arterial pressure using shed blood and crystalloid solution. Data (echocardiographically derived ejection fraction and oxygen transport parameters) were collected at baseline, after 30 min of hypotension and postresuscitation. Although the cardiac index, a marker for systolic function, and the mean arterial pressure, as well as oxygen delivery and consumption returned to baseline levels, the PSP/ESV ratio remained low despite adequate fluid resuscitation. This model provides a reproducible hemodynamically stable cardiac dysfunction associated with hemorrhagic shock.

Gastrointestinal bleeding after pancreatoduodenectomy: Report of four cases.

World J Gastrointest Surg

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing 100053, China.

Background: Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage is one of the most severe and life-threatening complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy. We present four cases of gastrointestinal bleeding patients to clarify its appropriate treatment and prevention.

Case Summary: The main symptoms included black stool, hematochezia, haematemesis, blood in the nasogastric tube, and hemorrhagic shock.

Background: Open pelvic fractures are rare but represent a serious clinical problem with high mortality rates. Acute mortality is often associated with hemorrhage, whereas delayed mortality is most often associated with sepsis and multiple organ failure. We report a case of Wang's classification of type II open pelvic ring fracture with hemorrhagic shock and septic shock from gas gangrene.

Introduction: Whole blood resuscitation is associated with survival benefits in observational cohort studies. The mechanisms responsible for outcome benefits have not been adequately determined. We sought to characterize the achievement of hemostasis across patients receiving early whole blood versus component resuscitation.

Hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion (HSR) is the main cause of death following trauma. Cognitive impairment may persist after successful resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock, but the mechanisms remain elusive. This study demonstrated the presence of ferroptosis in an in vitro model of oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) in HT22 neurons, and also in a murine model of HSR using 3-month-old C57BL/6 mice.
