Abstract
If not cured promptly, tissue ischemia and hypoxia can cause serious consequences or even threaten the life of the patient. Hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier-201 (HBOC-201), bovine hemoglobin polymerized by glutaraldehyde and stored in a modified Ringer's lactic acid solution, has been investigated as a blood substitute for clinical use. HBOC-201 was approved in South Africa in 2001 to treat patients with low hemoglobin (Hb) levels when red blood cells (RBCs) are contraindicated, rejected, or unavailable. By promoting oxygen diffusion and convective oxygen delivery, HBOC-201 may act as a direct oxygen donor and increase oxygen transfer between RBCs and between RBCs and tissues. Therefore, HBOC-201 is gradually finding applications in treating various ischemic and hypoxic diseases including traumatic hemorrhagic shock, hemolysis, myocardial infarction, cardiopulmonary bypass, perioperative period, organ transplantation, etc. However, side effects such as vasoconstriction and elevated methemoglobin caused by HBOC-201 are major concerns in clinical applications because Hbs are not encapsulated by cell membranes. This study summarizes preclinical and clinical studies of HBOC-201 applied in various clinical scenarios, outlines the relevant mechanisms, highlights potential side effects and solutions, and discusses the application prospects. Randomized trials with large samples need to be further studied to better validate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of HBOC-201 to the extent where patient-specific treatment strategies would be developed for various clinical scenarios to improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Fluids are the only known method of attenuating renal injury. Furthermore, whether for hydration, resuscitation or renal replacement therapy, fluid prescriptions must be tailored to the fluid and electrolyte, cardiovascular status and residual renal function of the patient. Different fluids have significantly different effects both on volume expansion as well as on the electrolyte and acid-base balance; while controversial, different fluids may even influence renal function differently. This systematic review focuses on fluids for prevention and management of acute kidney injury. We have reviewed the available evidence and have made recommendations for clinical practice and future studies.

Dose-Dependent Hemodynamic, Biochemical, and Tissue Oxygen Effects of OC99 following Severe Oxygen Debt Produced by Hemorrhagic Shock in Dogs. Crit Care Res Pract 2014; 2014:864237. [PMID: 25405028 PMCID: PMC4227330 DOI: 10.1155/2014/864237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2014] [Revised: 09/21/2014] [Accepted: 09/30/2014] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
We determined the dose-dependent effects of OC99, a novel, stabilized hemoglobin-based oxygen-carrier, on hemodynamics, systemic and pulmonary artery pressures, surrogates of tissue oxygen debt (arterial lactate 7.2 ± 0.1 mM/L and arterial base excess -17.9 ± 0.5 mM/L), and tissue oxygen tension (tPO2) in a dog model of controlled severe oxygen-debt from hemorrhagic shock. The dose/rate for OC99 was established from a pilot study conducted in six bled dogs. Subsequently twenty-four dogs were randomly assigned to one of four groups (n = 6 per group) and administered: 0.0, 0.065, 0.325, or 0.65 g/kg of OC99 combined with 10 mL/kg lactated Ringers solution administered in conjunction with 20 mL/kg Hextend IV over 60 minutes. The administration of 0.325 g/kg and 0.65 g/kg OC99 produced plasma hemoglobin concentrations of 0.63 ± 0.01 and 1.11 ± 0.02 g/dL, respectively, improved systemic hemodynamics, enhanced tPO2, and restored lactate and base excess values compared to 0.0 and 0.065 g/kg OC99. The administration of 0.65 g/kg OC99 significantly elevated pulmonary artery pressure. Plasma hemoglobin concentrations of OC99 ranging from 0.3 to 1.1 g/dL, in conjunction with colloid based fluid resuscitation, normalized clinical surrogates of tissue oxygen debt, improved tPO2, and avoided clinically relevant increases in pulmonary artery pressure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A number of experimental protocols have been used to try to reproduce the clinical scenarios of hemorrhagic shock. The present study reports on an experimental swine model of controlled hemorrhagic shock that incorporates microdialysis monitoring for the evaluation of tissue perfusion and oxygenation. The aim of our study was to provide a reproducible, accurate, and reliable model for the testing and evaluation of therapeutic interventions in the area of hemorrhagic shock. METHODS Landrace swine (n = 8) were subjected to controlled hemorrhagic shock, with a mean arterial pressure of 35 ± 5 as the endpoint. Six more pigs were used as the control group. Microdialysis monitoring of the tissue lactate/pyruvate ratio was used. The mean arterial pressure, heart rate, hematocrit, hemoglobin, and lactate/pyruvate ratio measurements were obtained just before (phase A) and 30 min after (phase B) hemorrhage in the study group; the control group underwent the same measurements at the corresponding points. RESULTS The mean arterial pressure, hematocrit, and hemoglobin were lower (P < 0.05) in the study group than in the control group at phase B and compared with the values for the study group at phase A. Also, the lactate/pyruvate ratio and heart rate were greater (P < 0.05) in the study group than in control group at phase B and compared with the values for the study group at phase A. CONCLUSIONS This model of hemorrhagic shock is effective and correlates with the clinical parameters of tissue oxygenation, as documented by microdialysis.

Abstract
This study determined the effects of serial, normovolemic, stepwise exchange transfusions with either 6% human serum albumin (HSA) or the hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier, HBOC-201, on tissue oxygenation of the heart, brain, and kidney in intact anaesthetized pigs. Exchange transfusions to 10%, 30%, and 50% of the pigs' total blood volume were completed at a withdrawal rate of 1.0 mL·kg(-1)·min(-1) followed by an infusion rate of 0.5 mL·kg(-1)·min(-1) of HBOC-201 or iso-oncotically matched 6% HSA. Measurements included invasive systemic hemodynamic (blood pressures, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure), hematolic (hemoglobin, hematocrit, methemoglobin), acid-base (pH, PCO2), and biochemistry (serum lactate) measurements. Brain and kidney tissue oxygenation (tPO2) was determined by electron paramagnetic resonance and heart tPO2 by O2 sensitive fiberoptic probe. The main results demonstrated that tPO2 after HBOC-201 remained stable despite significant decreases in hematocrit and changing hemodynamics. In vivo tPO2 measurements (heart tPO2 average ≥22 mmHg, brain tPO2 average ≥8 mmHg, and kidney tPO2 average ≥10 mmHg) were maintained in all groups at all times. Blood pressures were 20 to 30 mmHg higher after HBOC-201 compared with HSA controls. Heart rate and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure were not different among treatment groups. In conclusion, the administration of HBOC-201 maintained tPO2 in three vital organs after profound hemodilution.

Abstract
In a previous dose escalation study our group found that combining 90μg/kg rFVIIa with HBOC-201 reduced blood loss and improved physiologic parameters compared to HBOC alone. In this follow-up study in a swine liver injury model, we found that while there were no adverse hematology effects and trends observed in the previous study were confirmed, statistical significance could not be reached. Additional pre-clinical studies are indicated to identify optimal components of a multifunctional blood substitute for clinical use in trauma.

Abstract
Hypertension secondary to scavenging of NO remains a limitation in the use of HBOCs (haemoglobin-based oxygen carriers). Recent studies suggest that nitrite reduction to NO by deoxyhaemoglobin supports NO signalling. In the present study we tested whether nitrite would attenuate HBOC-mediated hypertension using HBOC-201 (Biopure), a bovine cross-linked, low-oxygen-affinity haemoglobin. In a similar way to unmodified haemoglobin, deoxygenated HBOC-201 reduced nitrite to NO with rates directly proportional to the extent of deoxygenation. The functional importance of HBOC-201-dependent nitrite reduction was demonstrated using isolated aortic rings and a murine model of trauma, haemorrhage and resuscitation. In the former, HBOC-201 inhibited NO-donor and nitrite-dependent vasodilation when oxygenated. However, deoxygenated HBOC-201 failed to affect nitrite-dependent vasodilation but still inhibited NO-donor dependent vasodilation, consistent with a model in which nitrite-reduction by deoxyHBOC-201 counters NO scavenging. Finally, resuscitation using HBOC-201, after trauma and haemorrhage, resulted in mild hypertension ( approximately 5-10 mmHg). Administration of a single bolus nitrite (30-100 nmol) at the onset of HBOC-201 resuscitation prevented hypertension. Nitrite had no effect on mean arterial pressure during resuscitation with LR (lactated Ringer's solution), suggesting a role for nitrite-HBOC reactions in attenuating HBOC-mediated hypertension. Taken together these data support the concept that nitrite can be used as an adjunct therapy to prevent HBOC-dependent hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOC) of several types scavenge nitric oxide from the vasculature resulting in vasoconstriction and hypertension, both systemic and pulmonary. Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors promote nitric oxide activity and enhance vasodilation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether combined therapy of glutaraldehyde-polymerized bovine hemoglobin (HBOC) with a PDE5 inhibitor would counter the negative hemodynamic consequences of HBOC therapy alone, resulting in improved hemodynamics and oxygen delivery. DESIGN A controlled, experimental study. SETTING A research laboratory at a university. SUBJECTS Conscious male Sprague-Dawley rats. INTERVENTIONS Glutaraldehyde-polymerized bovine hemoglobin (HBOC), sildenafil (PDE5 inhibitor), and lactated Ringer's solution (control). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Infusion of the HBOC resulted in significant (p < 0.05) systemic and pulmonary vasoconstriction, with reduced cardiac output and reduced oxygen delivery to the periphery. Infusion of lactated Ringer's demonstrated no changes in the measured variables. Infusion of sildenafil alone reduced systemic and pulmonary artery blood pressure, while maintaining cardiac output and oxygen delivery. Combined HBOC and sildenafil infusion resulted in stable systemic blood pressure, cardiac output, and oxygen delivery. However, the addition of sildenafil to HBOC did not fully ameliorate the pulmonary vasoconstriction caused by HBOC. CONCLUSION The HBOC used in this study resulted in pulmonary and systemic hypertension, reduced cardiac output, and oxygen delivery. These negative consequences of HBOC treatment can be largely overcome by combing HBOC treatment with a PDE5 inhibitor (sildenafil). Thus, these data support the continued investigation of combined HBOC and PDE5 inhibitor treatment in circumstances in which HBOC therapy is being considered.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic shock is a leading cause of death in trauma patients worldwide. Bleeding control, maintenance of tissue oxygenation with fluid resuscitation, coagulation support, and maintenance of normothermia remain mainstays of therapy for patients with hemorrhagic shock. Although now widely practised as standard in the USA and Europe, shock resuscitation strategies involving blood replacement and fluid volume loading to regain tissue perfusion and oxygenation vary between trauma centers; the primary cause of this is the scarcity of published evidence and lack of randomized controlled clinical trials. Despite enormous efforts to improve outcomes after severe hemorrhage, novel strategies based on experimental data have not resulted in profound changes in treatment philosophy. Recent clinical and experimental studies indicated the important influences of sex and genetics on pathophysiological mechanisms after hemorrhage. Those findings might provide one explanation why several promising experimental approaches have failed in the clinical arena. In this respect, more clinically relevant animal models should be used to investigate pathophysiology and novel treatment approaches. This review points out new therapeutic strategies, namely immunomodulation, cardiovascular maintenance, small volume resuscitation, and so on, that have been introduced in clinics or are in the process of being transferred from bench to bedside. Control of hemorrhage in the earliest phases of care, recognition and monitoring of individual risk factors, and therapeutic modulation of the inflammatory immune response will probably constitute the next generation of therapy in hemorrhagic shock. Further randomized controlled multicenter clinical trials are needed that utilize standardized criteria for enrolling patients, but existing ethical requirements must be maintained.

Abstract
Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) show potential as safe, efficacious, pre-hospital resuscitation fluids. The major criticism of HBOC-201 is its vasoactive property, attributed partially to low-molecular weight (low-MW) tetrameric/dimeric (TD) hemoglobin (Hb) in HBOC solution. Here we sought to determine whether resuscitation with decreasing concentrations of low-MW Hb component of HBOC affects immune responses in hemorrhagic swine. 28 anesthetized swine underwent a soft muscle crush and controlled hemorrhage of 55% blood volume, followed by resuscitation with HBOC containing 31%, 2%, or 0.4% low-MW Hb in four 10 ml/kg infusions at 20, 30, 45 and 60 minutes before hospital arrival at 75 minutes. IL-10, cell activation and adhesion markers and CD4:CD8 ratio remained unchanged in all 3 groups compared to baseline. Leukocyte apoptosis was equally elevated across all groups. Purification from 31% to 0.4% low-MW Hb in HBOC solution did not alter immune effects in a swine model of severe controlled hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
After severe hemorrhage, low-volume resuscitation with hypertonic fluids is increasingly preferred to more aggressive resuscitation strategies. Oxygen delivery to the tissues may be improved by augmentation with hemoglobin [Hb]-based oxygen-carrying compounds (HBOCs); however, previous studies have reported negative outcomes presumably related to extravasation of tetrameric Hb. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a novel large molecular weight polymer of cross-linked bovine Hb (OxyVita; OXYVITA Inc, New Windsor, NY) in a cocktail of hypertonic saline and Hextend (HX; HBOC-C) as an alternative to standard small-volume resuscitation using Hextend (HX) only. Outcomes were survival to 3 h and duration of MAP support more than 60 mmHg without additional fluid support. Conscious male Long-Evans rats were hemorrhaged to 60% total blood volume over 40 min. There were 4 groups: HBOC-C administered in a pressure-titrated infusion, HX titration, HBOC-C administered as a bolus, and HX bolus. Cardiovascular parameters, arterial gases, acid-base status, metabolites, electrolytes, Hb level, and oxygen saturation were measured at baseline, during each 20% hemorrhage increment, and 1, 2, and 3 h after the initiation of hemorrhage. Small-volume resuscitation with HBOC-C significantly improved survival to 3 h and improved MAP support times regardless of method of administration. However, physiological status at the end of hemorrhage significantly influenced survival regardless of resuscitation treatment. These results suggest that HBOC-augmented hypertonic cocktails are of promise in improving survival and providing target MAP support during small-volume resuscitation. Experimental evaluation of any resuscitation therapy should account for the degree of preexisting physiological compromise before therapy is initiated.

Abstract
Maleimide-polyethylene glycol-modified (MalPEG) hemoglobin, 4.3 g/dL (MP4; Hemospan), is a hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier consisting of human hemoglobin (Hb) modified with maleimide polyethylene glycol. This study evaluates the potential toxicity and hemodynamic actions of a single dose of MP4 administered by exchange transfusion to rhesus monkeys. Monkeys were administered MP4 (21 mL/kg, or approximately 30% of estimated blood volume) or an equivalent volume of lactated Ringer's solution (LR). In the toxicity study, blood samples were obtained predose and 3, 7, and 13 days after dosing for clinical chemistry and hematology. Animals were euthanized for complete necropsy and histopathology on day 3 or day 13. A separate group of animals was used for evaluation of arterial pressure, core temperature, and electrocardiogram, by telemetry, for 7 days after dosing with MP4. The results demonstrate no significant toxicity, with only modest, transient elevation of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) on day 3. Mild anemia caused by hemodilution was observed at each time point in both groups, but to a slightly greater degree in the MP4-treated animals. Histologic observations included foamy or vacuolated macrophages in the spleen and marrow of the sternum, rib, and femur, representing the accumulation of test article or a metabolite. In the telemetry study, no changes occurred in arterial pressure, heart rate, or electrocardiogram attributable to administration of MP4 at any time for 7 days after administration. These results demonstrate that MP4 is safe and is without hemodynamic effects when administered as an exchange transfusion of 30% of estimated blood volume.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To test our hypothesis that the hemoglobin based oxygen carrier HBOC-201 would have similar or superior efficacy to 6% hetastarch (HEX) as a pre-hospital 'bridging' fluid for hemorrhagic shock when delay to definitive medical care is prolonged to 24h. METHODS Twenty-four pigs were anesthetized, instrumented, given a soft tissue injury, and bled 55% estimated blood volume. Pigs were randomized to receive HBOC-201, HEX, or no resuscitation fluids (NON). At 4h post-injury, surgical sites were repaired and pigs were recovered from anesthesia. Animals were non-invasively monitored, administered blood for anemia or saline for hypotension at 24 and 48h, and monitored for 72h. RESULTS Survival to 72h was 87.5% (7/8) in HBOC-201 and HEX pigs compared to 25% (2/8) in NON pigs (p=0.01). Increased mean arterial pressure was observed in the HBOC-201 group (p<0.0001). Cardiac index was highest in HEX pigs (overall p<0.001, HBOC-201 versus HEX p=0.002). Transcutaneous tissue oxygenation was higher with HBOC-201 (overall p=0.04, HBOC-201 versus HEX p<0.01). HBOC-201 and HEX pigs had comparable heart rates, pulmonary pressures, pre-hospital fluid requirements, venous O(2) saturation, base deficit, and lactic acid. Hemoglobin was decreased with HEX (overall p<0.0001, HBOC-201 versus HEX p<0.0002). At 24h, 14.3% (1/7) HBOC-201 pigs required blood transfusions versus 100% HEX (7/7) and NON (2/2) pigs (p>0.001). CONCLUSIONS HBOC-201 restored hemodynamics, maintained tissue oxygenation, and decreased blood transfusions in comparison to HEX in severe controlled HS with 24h delay to simulated hospital care. These results support the potential use of HBOC-201 as a bridging resuscitation fluid for HS.
