Abstract
INTRODUCTION Uncontrolled torso hemorrhage is the primary cause of potentially survivable deaths on the battlefield. Zone 1 Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA), in conjunction with damage control resuscitation, may be an effective management strategy for these patients in the prehospital or austere phase of their care. However, the effect of whole blood (WB) transfusion during REBOA on post-occlusion circulatory collapse is not fully understood. MATERIALS AND METHODS Yorkshire male swine (n = 6 per group, 70-90 kg) underwent a 40% volume-controlled hemorrhage. After a 10-minute hemorrhagic shock period, a REBOA balloon was inflated in Zone 1. Fifteen minutes after inflation, 0, 1, or 3 units (450 mL/unit) of autologous WB was infused through the left jugular vein. Thirty minutes after initial balloon inflation, the balloon was deflated slowly over 3 minutes. Following deflation, normal saline was administered (up to 3,000 mL) and swine were observed for 2 hours. Survival (primary outcome), hemodynamics, and blood gas values were compared among groups. Statistical significance was determined by log-rank test, one-way ANOVA, and repeated measures ANOVA. RESULTS Survival rates were comparable between groups (P = .345) with 66% of control, 33% of the one-unit animals, and 50% of the 3-unit animals survived until the end of the study. Following WB infusion, both the 1-unit and the 3-unit groups had significantly higher blood pressure (P < .01), pulmonary artery pressure (P < .01), and carotid artery flow (P < .01) compared to the control group. CONCLUSIONS WB transfusion during Zone 1 REBOA was not associated with increased short-term survival in this large animal model of severe hemorrhage. We observed no signal that WB transfusion may mitigate post-occlusion circulatory collapse. However, there was evidence of supra-normal blood pressures during WB transfusion.

Abstract
Accidental bleeding is an unavoidable problem in daily life. To avoid the risk of excessive blood loss, it is urgent to design a functional material that can quickly stop bleeding. In this study, an efficient wound dressing for hemostasis was investigated. Based on the characteristics that Ca2+ and fish skin collagen (FSC) could activate the coagulation mechanism, hemostatic cotton was prepared by solvent replacement method using CaCl2, FSC, soluble starch (SS), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as raw materials. The cytotoxicity test showed the Ca2+PVA/FSC-SS hemostatic cottons had good biocompatibility. The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of Ca2+PVA/FSC-SS(4) was 35.34 s, which was 22.07 s faster than that of PVA/FSC-SS, indicating Ca2+PVA/FSC-SS mediated the endogenous coagulation system. In vitro coagulation test, Ca2+PVA/FSC-SS(4) could stop bleeding rapidly within 39.60 ± 5.16 s, and the ability of wound healing was higher than commercial product (Celox). This study developed a rapid procoagulant and hemostatic material, which had a promising application in a variety of environments.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: We sought to identify potential drivers behind resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) induced reperfusion coagulopathy using novel proteomic methods. Background: Coagulopathy associated with REBOA is poorly defined. The REBOA Zone 1 provokes hepatic and intestinal ischemia that may alter coagulation factor production and lead to molecular pathway alterations that compromises hemostasis. We hypothesized that REBOA Zone 1 would lead to reperfusion coagulopathy driven by mediators of fibrinolysis, loss of coagulation factors, and potential endothelial dysfunction. Methods: Yorkshire swine were subjected to a polytrauma injury (blast traumatic brain injury, tissue injury, and hemorrhagic shock). Pigs were randomized to observation only (controls, n = 6) or to 30 min of REBOA Zone 1 (n = 6) or REBOA Zone 3 (n = 4) as part of their resuscitation. Thromboelastography was used to detect coagulopathy. ELISA assays and mass spectrometry proteomics were used to measure plasma protein levels related to coagulation and systemic inflammation. Results: After the polytrauma phase, balloon deflation of REBOA Zone 1 was associated with significant hyperfibrinolysis (TEG results: REBOA Zone 1 35.50% versus control 9.5% vs. Zone 3 2.4%, P < 0.05). In the proteomics and ELISA results, REBOA Zone 1 was associated with significant decreases in coagulation factor XI and coagulation factor II, and significant elevations of active tissue plasminogen activator, plasmin-antiplasmin complex complexes, and syndecan-1 (P < 0.05). Conclusion: REBOA Zone 1 alters circulating mediators of clot formation, clot lysis, and increases plasma levels of known markers of endotheliopathy, leading to a reperfusion-induced coagulopathy compared with REBOA Zone 3 and no REBOA.

Abstract
Noncompressible wounds resulting from accidents and gunshots are typically associated with excessive bleeding, slow wound healing, and bacterial infection. Shape-memory cryogel presents great potential in controlling the hemorrhaging of noncompressible wounds. In this research, a shape-memory cryogel was prepared using a Schiff base reaction between alkylated chitosan (AC) and oxidized dextran (ODex) and then incorporated with a drug-laden and silver-doped mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG). Hydrophobic alkyl chains enhanced the hemostatic and antimicrobial efficiency of the chitosan, forming blood clots in the anticoagulated condition, and expanding the application scenarios of chitosan-based hemostats. The silver-doped MBG activated the endogenous coagulation pathway by releasing Ca2+ and prevented infection through the release of Ag+. In addition, the proangiogenic desferrioxamine (DFO) in the mesopores of the MBG was released gradually to promote wound healing. We demonstrated that AC/ODex/Ag-MBG DFO(AOM) cryogels exhibited excellent blood absorption capability, facilitating rapid shape recovery. It provided a higher hemostatic capacity in normal and heparin-treated rat-liver perforation-wound models than gelatin sponges and gauze. The AOM gels simultaneously promoted infiltration, angiogenesis, and tissue integration of liver parenchymal cells. Furthermore, the composite cryogel exhibited antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Thus, AOM gels show great promise for clinical translation in treating lethal, noncompressible bleeding and the promotion of wound healing.

Abstract
Trauma is the number one cause of death among Americans between the ages of 1 and 46 years, costing more than $670 billion a year. Following death related to central nervous system injury, hemorrhage accounts for the majority of remaining traumatic fatalities. Among those with severe trauma that reach the hospital alive, many may survive if the hemorrhage and traumatic injuries are diagnosed and adequately treated in a timely fashion. This article aims to review the recent advances in pathophysiology management following a traumatic hemorrhage as well as the role of diagnostic imaging in identifying the source of hemorrhage. The principles of damage control resuscitation and damage control surgery are also discussed. The chain of survival for severe hemorrhage begins with primary prevention; however, once trauma has occurred, prehospital interventions and hospital care with early injury recognition, resuscitation, definitive hemostasis, and achieving endpoints of resuscitation become paramount. An algorithm is proposed for achieving these goals in a timely fashion as the median time from onset of hemorrhagic shock and death is 2 h.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a lifesaving therapy for hemorrhagic shock following pelvic/lower extremity injuries in military settings. However, Zone 1 aortic occlusion (AO; above the celiac artery), while providing brain/cardiac perfusion, may induce/worsen visceral ischemia and organ dysfunction. In contrast, AO Zone 3 (below the renal arteries) provides abdominal perfusion potentially minimizing ischemia/reperfusion injury. We hypothesized that, compared with AO Zone 1, AO Zone 3 provides neuro/cardioprotection while minimizing visceral ischemia and reperfusion coagulopathy after severe traumatic hemorrhage due to pelvic/lower extremity injuries. METHODS Fifty-kilogram male Yorkshire swine underwent a blast polytrauma injury followed by a resuscitation protocol with randomization to no AO (No AO, n = 6) or AO with REBOA at Zone 1 (AO Zone 1; n = 6) or Zone 3 (AO Zone 3; n = 4). Vital signs and intracranial pressure (ICP) were monitored for 240 minutes. Citrate native and tissue plasminogen activator challenge thrombelastography, prothrombin time, creatinine, lipase, total bilirubin, troponin, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays protein levels were measured at set intervals. RESULTS Both AO groups had significant increases in mean arterial pressure during aortic occlusion. All three groups had significant increases in ICP, but final ICP in the No AO group (26 ± 5.8 mm Hg) was significantly elevated compared with AO Zone 1 (17 ± 5.2 mm Hg) and AO Zone 3 (16 ± 4.2 mm Hg) ( p < 0.01). The final mean troponin in the No AO group (4.10 ± 5.67 ng/mL) was significantly higher than baseline (0.03 ± 0.02 ng/mL, p < 0.05), while the two AO groups had no significant changes ( p > 0.05). AO Zone 1 was the only group associated with hyperfibrinolysis ( p < 0.05) and significantly increased prothrombin time ( p < 0.05). Only AO Zone 1 group had significantly higher markers of organ damage. CONCLUSION Compared with AO Zone 1, AO Zone 3 provided similar neuro/cardioprotection but with less organ dysfunction and coagulopathy. This study suggests that Zone 3 REBOA may be preferable over Zone 1 for treating military relevant blast polytrauma with minimal intra-abdominal and chest trauma, but further clinical investigation is warranted.

Abstract
ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) after hemorrhage is potentiated by aortic occlusion or resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA). Given the central role of mitochondrial injury in shock, we hypothesized that Elamipretide, a peptide that protects mitochondria, would mitigate IRI after hemorrhagic shock and REBOA. Twelve pigs were subjected to hemorrhagic shock and 45 min of REBOA. After 25 min of REBOA, animals received either saline or Elamipretide. Animals were transfused with autologous blood during balloon deflation, and pigs were resuscitated with isotonic crystalloids and norepinephrine for 4.25 h. Elamipretide-treated animals required less crystalloids than the controls (62.5 [50-90] and 25 [5-30] mL/kg, respectively), but similar amounts of norepinephrine (24.7 [8.6-39.3] and 9.7 [2.1-12.5] mcg/kg, respectively). Treatment animals had a significant reduction in serum creatinine (control: 2.7 [2.6-2.8]; Elamipretide: 2.4 [2.4-2.5] mg/dL; p = 0.04), troponin (control: 3.20 [2.14-5.47] ng/mL, Elamipretide: 0.22 [0.1-1.91] ng/mL; p = 0.03), and interleukin-6 concentrations at the end of the study. There were no differences in final plasma lactate concentration. Elamipretide reduced fluid requirements and protected the kidney and heart after profound IRI. Further understanding the subcellular consequences of REBOA and mitochondrial rescue will open new therapeutic avenues for patients suffering from IRI after hemorrhage.

Abstract
Background Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has recently gained popularity as an adjunct to resuscitation of patients with traumatic shock. However, the effectiveness of REBOA is still debated because of inconsistent indications across centers and the lack of medical records. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of REBOA by analyzing clinical results from a single center. Methods This study included 96 patients who underwent REBOA between August 2016 and September 2021 at a regional trauma center according to the center's treatment algorithm for traumatic shock. Medical records, including the time of the decision to conduct the REBOA procedure, time of operation, type of aortic occlusion, and clinical outcomes, were collected prospectively and analyzed retrospectively. Patients were classified by REBOA protocol (group 1, 2, or 3) and survival status (survivor or non-survivor) for analysis. Results The overall success rate of the procedure was 97.9%, and the survival rate was 32.6%. In survivors, blood pressure was higher than in non-survivors both before the REBOA procedure (p=0.002) and after aortic occlusion (p=0.03). The total aortic occlusion time was significantly shorter (p=0.001) and the proportion of partial aortic occlusion was significantly higher (p=0.014) among the survivors. The non-survivors had more acidosis (p<0.001) and higher lactate concentrations (p<0.001) than the survivors. Conclusion REBOA may be a feasible bridge therapy for resuscitation of patients with traumatic shock. Prompt and accurate decision-making to perform REBOA followed by damage control surgery could improve survival rates and clinical outcomes.

Oxidized dextran crosslinked polysaccharide/protein/polydopamine composite cryogels with multiple hemostatic efficacies for noncompressible hemorrhage and wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 215:675-690. [PMID: 35779652 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.06.130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 06/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Noncompressible hemorrhage caused by gunshots and sharp objects leads to higher trauma mortality, and cryogels have great potential in controlling noncompressible hemorrhage applications owing to their shape-memory properties. However, the use of non-toxic crosslinkers to prepare cryogels for noncompressible hemorrhage remains a challenge. In this study, a series of cryogels were prepared using oxidized dextran (ODex) as a biocompatible crosslinker, combined with the good hemostatic properties of chitosan (CS) and human-like collagen (HLC), and polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-NPs) were also introduced to strengthen the shape recovery speed of the cryogels and further enhance their hemostatic performance. The CS/HLC/ODex/PDA-NPs (CHOP) cryogels presented a highly interconnected macroporous structure, powerful water/blood absorption capacity, robust mechanical performance, and rapid water/blood-triggered shape recovery. In vitro coagulation and coagulation mechanism tests showed that CHOP exhibited strong procoagulant ability, high adhesion to blood cells and fibrinogen, and the capacity to activate platelets and intrinsic pathways. In vivo hemostatic tests indicated that CHOP could effectively shorten the bleeding time and reduce the bleeding volume of liver incision bleeding and liver noncompressible hemorrhage. Meanwhile, CHOP exhibited good biocompatibility and biodegradability, and could promote wound healing. These results suggest that CHOP cryogels will be a promising hemostatic dressing.

Abstract
Introduction: Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) is used for aortic control in hemorrhagic shock despite little quantification of its mechanism of resuscitation or cardiac injury. The goal of this study was to use pressure-volume (PV) loop analysis and direct coronary blood flow measurements to describe the physiologic changes associated with the clinical use of REBOA. Methods: Swine underwent surgical and vascular access to measure left ventricular PV loops and left coronary flow in hemorrhagic shock and subsequent placement of occlusive REBOA, partial REBOA, and no REBOA. PV loop characteristics and coronary flow are compared graphically with PV loops and coronary waveforms, and quantitatively with measures of the end systolic and end pressure volume relationship, and coronary flow parameters, with accounting for multiple comparisons. Results: Hemorrhagic shock was induced in five male swine (mean 53.6 ± 3.6 kg) as demonstrated by reduction of stroke work (baseline: 3.1 vs. shock: 1.2 L*mmHg, p < 0.01) and end systolic pressure (ESP; 109.8 vs. 59.6 mmHg, p < 0.01). ESP increased with full REBOA (178.4 mmHg; p < 0.01), but only moderately with partial REBOA (103.0 mmHg, p < 0.01 compared to shock). End systolic elastance was augmented from baseline to shock (1.01 vs. 0.39 ml/mmHg, p < 0.01) as well as shock compared to REBOA (4.50 ml/mmHg, p < 0.01) and partial REBOA (3.22 ml/mmHg, p = 0.01). Percent time in antegrade coronary flow decreased in shock (94%-71.8%, p < 0.01) but was rescued with REBOA. Peak flow increased with REBOA (271 vs. shock: 93 ml/min, p < 0.01) as did total flow (peak: 2136, baseline: 424 ml/min, p < 0.01). REBOA did not augment the end diastolic pressure volume relationship. Conclusion: REBOA increases afterload to facilitate resuscitation, but the penalty is supraphysiologic coronary flows and imposed increase in LV contractility to maintain cardiac output. Partial REBOA balances the increased afterload with improved aortic system compliance to prevent injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noncompressible torso hemorrhage management remains a challenge especially in the prehospital setting. We evaluated a device designed to occlude the aorta from the stomach (gastroesophageal resuscitative occlusion of the aorta [GROA]) for its ability to stop hemorrhage and improve survival in a swine model of lethal liver laceration and compared its performance to resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) and controls. METHODS Swine (n = 24) were surgically instrumented and a 30% controlled arterial hemorrhage over 20 minutes was followed by liver laceration. Animals received either GROA, REBOA, or control (no treatment) for 60 minutes. Following intervention, devices were deactivated, and animals received whole blood and crystalloid resuscitation. Animals were monitored for an additional 4 hours. RESULTS The liver laceration resulted in the onset of class IV shock. Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) (standard deviation) decreased from 84.5 mm Hg (11.69 mm Hg) to 27.1 mm Hg (5.65 mm Hg) at the start of the intervention. Seven of eight control animals died from injury prior to the end of the intervention period with a median survival (interquartile) time of 10.5 minutes (12 minutes). All GROA and REBOA animals survived the duration of the intervention period (60 minutes) with median survival times of 86 minutes (232 minutes) and 79 minutes (199 minutes) after resuscitation, respectively. The GROA and REBOA animals experienced a significant improvement in survival compared with controls (p = 0.01). Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta resulted in higher MAP at the end of intervention 114.6 mm Hg (22.9 mm Hg) compared with GROA 88.2 mm Hg (18.72 mm Hg) (p = 0.024), as well as increased lactate compared with GROA 13.2 meq·L-1 (1.56 meq·L-1) versus 10.5 meq·L-1 (1.89 meq·L-1) (p = 0.028). Histological examination of the gastric mucosa in surviving animals revealed mild ischemic injury from both GROA and REBOA. CONCLUSION The GROA and REBOA devices were both effective at temporarily stanching lethal noncompressible torso hemorrhage of the abdomen and prolonging survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Associated injuries are thought to increase mortality in patients with severe abdominopelvic trauma. This study aimed to identify clinical factors contributing to increased mortality in patients with severe abdominopelvic trauma, with the hypothesis that a greater number of concomitant injuries would result in increased mortality. METHODS This was a retrospective review of the Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) database of patients ≥ 18 years with severe abdominopelvic trauma defined as having an abdominal Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS) ≥ 3 with pelvic fractures and/or iliac vessel injury (2015-2017). Primary outcome was in-hospital mortality based on concomitant body region injuries. Secondary outcomes included mortality at 6 h, 6 to 24 h, and after 24 h based on concomitant injuries, procedures performed, and transfusion requirements. RESULTS A total of 185,257 patients were included in this study. Survivors had more severely injured body regions than non-survivors (4 vs. 3, P < 0.001). Among those who died within 6 h, 28.5% of patients required a thoracic procedure and 43% required laparotomy compared to 6.3% and 22.1% among those who died after 24 h (P < 0.001). Head AIS ≥ 3 was the only body region that significantly contributed to overall mortality (OR 1.26, P < 0.001) along with laparotomy (OR 3.02, P < 0.001), neurosurgical procedures (2.82, P < 0.001) and thoracic procedures (2.28, P < 0.001). Non-survivors who died in < 6 h and 6-24 h had greater pRBC requirements than those who died after 24 h (15.5 and 19.5 vs. 8 units, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Increased number of body regions injured does not contribute to greater mortality. Uncontrolled noncompressible torso hemorrhage rather than the burden of concomitant injuries is the major contributor to the high mortality associated with severe abdominopelvic injury.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The care of the hemorrhaging patient continues to evolve. The use of endovascular techniques to treat hemorrhage has increased significantly in civilian trauma care over the past 15 years and is identified as a major national trauma care research priority. Endovascular techniques are being increasingly employed to treat major thoracoabdominal arterial injuries and resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta is being adopted at trauma centers as a supportive adjunct to resuscitation in the exsanguinating patient. Emerging endovascular technology offers the opportunity to provide temporary or permanent control of non-compressible torso hemorrhage, which remains a vexing problem in combat casualty care. Endovascular advances have not been translated to the care of combat casualties to any significant degree, however. This review provides a summary and analysis of the gap between civilian endovascular hemorrhage control and combat casualty care practice to better align future research and development efforts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate cerebral perfusion is crucial for a positive neurological outcome in trauma; however, it is difficult to characterize in the acute setting with noninvasive methods. Intra-arterial computed tomography perfusion may offer a solution. The aim of this study was to develop an intra-arterial computed tomography perfusion protocol for resuscitation research. METHODS The study examined intra-arterial contrast administration for computed tomography perfusion (CTP) acquisition. It consisted of three phases: intra-arterial contrast dose finding, evaluation of reproducibility, and evaluation during hypotension. Blood pressure and laser Doppler flow data were collected. In phase 1, animals underwent CTPs using several intra-arterial contrast injection protocols. In phase 2, animals underwent two CTPs 7 hours apart using the 2.5 mL/s for 3-second protocol. In phase 3, animals underwent CTPs at several pressures following a computer-controlled bleed including euvolemia and at systolic pressures of 60, 40, and 20 mm Hg. Phase 1 CTPs were evaluated for contrast-to-noise ratio. In phase 2, CTPs were compared within each animal and with laser Doppler flow using linear regression. Phase 3 CTPs were graphed against systolic pressure and fitted with a nonlinear fit. RESULTS The protocol using 2.5mL/s for 3 seconds was optimal, demonstrating a contrast-to-noise ratio of 40.1 and a superior arterial input function curve compared with the 1 mL/s bolus. Cerebral blood flow demonstrated high concordance between baseline and end of study CTPs (R2 = 0.82, p < 0.001). Cerebral blood flow also compared moderately well against laser Doppler flow during 8 (R2 = 0.53, p = 0.03); however, laser Doppler flow did not perform well during hypovolemia, and the favorable concordance was not maintained (R2 = 0.45, p = 0.06). Cerebral blood flow was graphed against systolic blood pressure and fitted with a nonlinear fit (R2 = 0.95, p = 0.003). CONCLUSION Computed tomography perfusion using intra-arterial contrast injection may offer a novel alternative to traditional CTP protocols that could prove a useful additional tool in the setting of resuscitation research.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) allows for effective temporization of exsanguination from non-compressible hemorrhage (NCTH) below the diaphragm. However, the therapeutic window for aortic occlusion is time-limited given the ischemia-reperfusion injury generated. Significant effort has been put into translational research to develop new strategies to alleviate the ischemia-reperfusion injury and extend the application of endoaortic occlusion. Targeted regional optimization (TRO) is a partial REBOA strategy to augment proximal aortic and cerebral blood flow while targeting minimal threshold of distal perfusion beyond the zone of partial aortic occlusion. The objective of TRO is to reduce the degree of ischemia caused by complete aortic occlusion while providing control of distal hemorrhage. This review provides a synopsis of the concept of TRO, pre-clinical, translational experiences with TRO and early clinical outcomes. Early results from TRO strategies are promising; however, further studies are needed prior to large-scale implementation into clinical practice.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Major pelvic hemorrhage remains a considerable challenge of modern trauma care associated with mortality in over a third of patients. Efforts to improve outcomes demand continued research into the optimal employment of both traditional and newer hemostatic adjuncts across the full spectrum of emergent care environments. The purpose of this review is to provide a concise description of the rationale for and effective use of currently available adjuncts for the control of pelvic hemorrhage. In addition, the challenges of defining the optimal order and algorithm for employment of these adjuncts will be outlined. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Review, level IV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noncompressible hemorrhage is a leading cause of potentially survivable combat death, with the vast majority of such deaths occurring in the out-of-hospital environment. While large animal models of this process are important for device and therapeutic development, clinical practice has changed over time and past models must follow suit. Developed in conjunction with regulatory feedback, this study presents a modernized, out-of-hospital, noncompressible hemorrhage model, in conjunction with a randomized study of past, present, and future fluid options following a hypotensive resuscitation protocol consistent with current clinical practice. METHODS We performed a randomized controlled experiment comparing three fluid resuscitation options in Yorkshire swine. Baseline data from animals of same size from previous experiments were analyzed (n = 70), and mean systolic blood pressure was determined, with a permissive hypotension resuscitation target defined as a 25% decrease from normal (67 mm Hg). After animal preparation, a grade IV to V liver laceration was induced. Animals bled freely for a 10-minute "time-to-responder" period, after which resuscitation occurred with randomized fluid in boluses to the goal target: 6% hetastarch in lactated electrolyte injection (HEX), normal saline (NS), or fresh whole blood (FWB). Animals were monitored for a total simulated "delay to definitive care" period of 2 hours postinjury. RESULTS At the end of the 2-hour study period, 8.3% (1 of 12 swine) of the HEX group, 50% (6 of 12 swine) of the NS group, and 75% (9 of 12 swine) of the FWB had survived (p = 0.006), with Holm-Sidak pairwise comparisons showing a significant difference between HEX and FWB and (p = 0.005). Fresh whole blood had significantly higher systemic vascular resistance and hemoglobin levels compared with other groups (p = 0.003 and p = 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION Survival data support the movement away from HEX toward NS and, preferably, FWB in clinical practice and translational animal modeling. The presented model allows for future research including basic science, as well as translational studies of novel diagnostics, therapeutics, and devices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noncompressible torso hemorrhage is a leading cause of preventable death on the battlefield. Intra-aortic balloon occlusion was first used in combat in the 1950s, but military use was rare before Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. During these wars, the combination of an increasing number of deployed vascular surgeons and a significant rise in deaths from hemorrhage resulted in novel adaptations of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) technology, increasing its potential application in combat. We describe the background of REBOA development in response to a need for minimally invasive intervention for hemorrhage control and provide a detailed review of all published cases (n = 47) of REBOA use for combat casualties. The current limitations of REBOA are described, including distal ischemia and reperfusion injury, as well as ongoing research efforts to adapt REBOA for prolonged use in the austere setting. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level V.

Abstract
The issue of laparostomy treatment is still controversial, since there are insufficient evidence-based data. German military surgeons have developed and implemented the «Koblenz algorithm» of laparostomy treatment into everyday practice. The algorithm was developed at the Bundeswehr Central Hospital in Koblenz (Germany). Today, approximately 50% of German civilian hospitals use the «Koblenz algorithm». The database for laparostomy treatment was created on the basis of international platform European Registry of Abdominal wall Hernias (EuraHS) in May 2015. These data will be valuable for further multipla-center studies. This manuscript is devoted to analysis of clinical effectiveness of the «Koblenz algorithm» in the treatment of patients with laparostomy. Searching of Russian, English and German studies devoted to «Koblenz algorithm» in the treatment of patients with laparostomy was carried out in the eLIBRARY, Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek, the Cochrane Library and the PubMed databases. The authors comprehensively described «Koblenz algorithm». Mortality in the group of VAC - therapy was 57% (31/54), in case of «Koblenz algorithm» - 33% (33/100). Between-group differences were significant (OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.18-0.72, p=0.003). However, an efficacy of «Koblenz algorithm» should be confirmed in further multiple-center studies including national evidence-based trials.

Abstract
Non-compressible hemorrhage in the junctional areas and torso could be life-threatening and its prehospital control remains extremely challenging. The aim of this review was to compare commonly used techniques for the control of non-compressible hemorrhage in prehospital settings, and thereby provide evidence for further improvements in emergency care of traumatic injuries. Three techniques were reviewed including external aortic compression (EAC), abdominal aortic junctional tourniquet (AAJT), and resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA). In prehospital settings, all three techniques have demonstrated clinical effectiveness for the control of severe hemorrhage. EAC is a cost- and equipment-free, easy-to-teach, and immediately available technique. In contrast, AAJT and REBOA are expensive and require detailed instructions or systematic training. Compared with EAC, AAJT and REBOA have greater potentials in the management of traumatic hemorrhage. AAJT can be used not only in the junctional areas but also in pelvic and bilateral lower limb injuries. However, both AAJT and REBOA should be used for a limited time (less than 1 hour) due to possible consequences of ischemia and reperfusion. Compared with EAC and AAJT, REBOA is invasive, requiring femoral arterial access and intravascular guidance and inflation. Mortality from non-compressible hemorrhage could be reduced through the prehospital application of aortic blood flow control techniques. EAC should be considered as the first-line choice for many non-compressible injuries that cannot be managed with conventional junctional tourniquets. In comparison, AAJT or REBOA is recommended for better control of the aorta blood flow in prehospital settings. Although these three techniques each have advantages, their use in trauma is not widespread. Future studies are warranted to provide more data about their safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a lifesaving maneuver for the management of lethal torso hemorrhage. However, its prolonged use leads to distal organ ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). The objective of this study is to investigate the blood-based biomarkers of IRI and SIRS and the efficacy of direct intestinal cooling in the prevention of IRI and SIRS. A rat lethal hemorrhage model was produced by bleeding 50% of the total blood volume. A balloon catheter was inserted into the aorta for the implementation of REBOA. A novel TransRectal Intra-Colon (TRIC) device was placed in the descending colon and activated from 10 min after the bleeding to maintain the intra-colon temperature at 37 °C (TRIC37°C group) or 12 °C (TRIC12°C group) for 270 min. The upper body temperature was maintained at as close to 37 °C as possible in both groups. Blood samples were collected before hemorrhage and after REBOA. The organ injury biomarkers and inflammatory cytokines were evaluated by ELISA method. Blood based organ injury biomarkers (endotoxin, creatinine, AST, FABP1/L-FABP, cardiac troponin I, and FABP2/I-FABP) were all drastically increased in TRIC37°C group after REBOA. TRIC12°C significantly downregulated these increased organ injury biomarkers. Plasma levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1b, and IL-17F were also drastically increased in TRIC37°C group after REBOA. TRIC12°C significantly downregulated the pro-inflammatory cytokines. In contrast, TRIC12°C significantly upregulated the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-4 and IL-10 after REBOA. Amazingly, the mortality rate was 100% in TRIC37°C group whereas 0% in TRIC12°C group after REBOA. Directly cooling the intestine offered exceptional protection of the abdominal organs from IRI and SIRS, switched from a harmful pro-inflammatory to a reparative anti-inflammatory response, and mitigated mortality in the rat model of REBOA management of lethal hemorrhage.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The emerging concept of endovascular resuscitation applies catheter-based techniques in the management of patients in shock to manipulate physiology, optimize hemodynamics, and bridge to definitive care. These interventions hope to address an unmet need in the care of severely injured patients, or those with refractory non-traumatic cardiac arrest, who were previously deemed non-survivable. These evolving techniques include Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of Aorta, Selective Aortic Arch Perfusion, and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and there is a growing literature base behind them. This review presents the up-to-date techniques and interventions, along with their application, evidence base, and controversy within the new era of endovascular resuscitation.

Abstract
Background Non-compressible truncal hemorrhage (NCTH) is the leading cause of preventable death after trauma. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) achieves temporary hemorrhage control, supporting cardiac and cerebral perfusion prior to definitive hemostasis. Aortic zone selection algorithms vary among institutions. We evaluated the efficacy of an algorithm for REBOA use. Methods A multicenter prospective, observational study conducted at six level 1 trauma centers over 12 months. Inclusion criteria were age >15 years with evidence of infradiaphragmatic NCTH needing emergent hemorrhage control within 60 min of ED arrival. An algorithm characterized by the results of focused assessment with sonography in trauma and pelvic X-ray was assessed post hoc for efficacy in a cohort of patients receiving REBOA. Results Of the 8166 patients screened, 78 patients had a REBOA placed. 21 patients were excluded, leaving 57 patients for analysis. The algorithm ensures REBOA deployment proximal to hemorrhage source to control bleeding in 98.2% of cases and accurately predicts the optimal REBOA zone in 78.9% of cases. If the algorithm was violated, bleeding was optimally controlled in only 43.8% (p=0.01). Three (75.0%) of the patients that received an inappropriate zone 1 REBOA died, two from multiple organ failure (MOF). All three patients that died with an inappropriate zone 3 REBOA died from exsanguination. Discussion This algorithm ensures proximal hemorrhage control and accurately predicts the primary source of hemorrhage. We propose a new algorithm that will be more inclusive. A zone 3 REBOA should not be performed when a zone 1 is indicated by the algorithm as 100% of these patients exsanguinated. MOF, perhaps from visceral ischemia in patients with an inappropriate zone 1 REBOA, may have been prevented with zone 3 placement or limited zone 1 occlusion time. Level of evidence Level III.

Abstract
Background: Hemorrhage is the leading cause of death in trauma settings. Non-compressible torso hemorrhage, which is caused by abdominopelvic and thoracic injuries, is an important cause of subsequent organ dysfunction and poor outcomes in multiple trauma patients. The management of hemodynamically unstable patients with non-compressible torso hemorrhage has changed, and the concept of damage control resuscitation has been developed in the last decades. Currently, resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) as a method of temporary stabilization is the modern evolution of bleeding control, and it is in the middle of a paradigm shift as a treatment for non-compressible torso hemorrhage. Despite its effectiveness in patients with hemorrhagic shock, the application of REBOA remains limited because of lack of experience and troubleshooting guidelines. Objectives: The aim of study was to provide useful tips for the implementing a step-by-step procedure for REBOA in various hospital settings and capabilities. Methods: We introduced REBOA procedures using a REBOA-customized 7 Fr balloon catheter through the animation models or radiography from preparation to access, catheter management, and device removal after procedure completed. Results: We have described REBOA procedures as follows: identification of the common femoral artery, arterial access for placement of a guidewire, precautions during a sheath insertion, guidewire and balloon positioning in the aorta, occlusion zones and adjustment of balloon location, REBOA strategy for extending the occlusion time, balloon deflation and removal, sheath removal, and medical records. Conclusion: We believe that the practical tips mentioned in this article will help in performing the REBOA procedure systematically and developing an effective REBOA framework.

Abstract
In humans, the leading cause of potentially preventable death on the modern battlefield is undoubtedly exsanguination from massive hemorrhage. The US military and allied nations have devoted enormous effort to combat hemorrhagic shock and massive hemorrhage. This has yielded numerous advances designed to stop bleeding and save lives. The development of extremity, junctional and truncal tourniquets applied by first responders have saved countless lives both on the battlefield and in civilian settings. Additional devices such as resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) and intraperitoneal hemostatic foams show great promise to address control the most difficult forms (non-compressible) of hemorrhage. The development of next generation hemostatic dressings has reduced bleeding both in the prehospital setting as well as in the operating room. Furthermore, the research and fielding of antifibrinolytics such as tranexamic acid have shown incredible promise to ameliorate the effects of acute traumatic coagulopathy which has led to significant morbidity and mortality in service members. Advances from lessons learned on the battlefield have numerous potential parallels in veterinary medicine and these lessons are ripe for translation to veterinary medicine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) literature focuses on improving outcomes through careful patient selection, diligent catheter placement, and expeditious definitive hemorrhage control. However, the detection and treatment of post-REBOA ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remains an area for potential improvement. Herein, we provide a review of the metabolic derangements that we have encountered while managing post-REBOA IRI in past swine experiments. We also provide data-driven clinical recommendations to facilitate resuscitation post-REBOA deflation that may be translatable to humans. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the laboratory data from 25 swine across three varying hemorrhagic shock models that were subjected to complete REBOA of either 45 minutes, 60 minutes, or 90 minutes. In each model the balloon was deflated gradually following definitive hemorrhage control. Animals were then subjected to whole blood transfusion and critical care with frequent electrolyte monitoring and treatment of derangements as necessary. RESULTS Plasma lactate peaked and pH nadired long after balloon deflation in all swine in the 45-minute, 60-minute, and 90-minute occlusion models (onset of peak lactate, 32.9 ± 6.35 minutes, 38.8 ± 10.55 minutes, and 49.5 ± 6.5 minutes; pH nadir, 4.3 ± 0.72 minutes, 26.9 ± 12.32 minutes, and 42 ± 7.45 minutes after balloon deflation in the 45-, 60-, and 90-minute occlusion models, respectively). All models displayed persistent hypoglycemia for more than an hour following reperfusion (92.1 ± 105.5 minutes, 125 ± 114.9 minutes, and 96 ± 97.8 minutes after balloon deflation in the 45-, 60-, and 90-minute occlusion groups, respectively). Hypocalcemia and hyperkalemia occurred in all three groups, with some animals requiring treatment more than an hour after reperfusion. CONCLUSION Metabolic derangements resulting from REBOA use are common and may worsen long after reperfusion despite resuscitation. Vigilance is required to detect and proactively manage REBOA-associated IRI. Maintaining a readily available "deflation kit" of pharmacological agents needed to treat common post-REBOA electrolyte abnormalities may facilitate management. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level V.

Abstract
Background Management of Non-Compressible Torso Hemorrhage (NCTH) consists primarily of aortic occlusion which has significant adverse outcomes, including ischemia-reperfusion injury, in prolonged field care paradigms. One promising avenue for treatment is through use of RevMedx XSTAT 30™ (an FDA approved sponge-based dressing utilized for extremity wounds). We hypothesized that XSTAT 30™ would effectively mitigate NCTH during a prolonged pre-hospital period with correctable metabolic and physiologic derangements. Methods and findings Twenty-four male swine (53±2kg) were anesthetized, underwent line placement, and splenectomy. Animals then underwent laparoscopic transection of 70% of the left lobe of the liver with hemorrhage for a period of 10min. They were randomized into three groups: No intevention (CON), XSTAT 30™-Free Pellets (FP), and XSTAT 30™-Bagged Pellets (BP). Animals were observed for a pre-hospital period of 180min. At 180min, animals underwent damage control surgery (DCS), balanced blood product resuscitation and removal of pellets followed by an ICU period of 5 hours. Postoperative fluoroscopy was performed to identify remaining pellets or bags. Baseline physiologic and injury characteristics were similar. Survival rates were significantly higher in FP and BP (p<0.01) vs CON. DCS was significantly longer in FP in comparison to BP (p = 0.001). Two animals in the FP group had pellets discovered on fluoroscopy following DCS. There was no significant difference in blood product or pressor requirements between groups. End-ICU lactates trended to baseline in both FP and BP groups. Conclusions While these results are promising, further study will be required to better understand the role for XSTAT in the management of NCTH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of Aorta (REBOA) has emerged as a potential life-saving maneuver for the management of non-compressible torso hemorrhage in trauma patients. Complete REBOA (cREBOA) is inherently associated with the burden of ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) and organ dysfunction. However, the distal organ inflammation and its association with organ injury have been little investigated. This study was conducted to assess these adverse effects of cREBOA following massive hemorrhage in swine. METHODS Spontaneously breathing and consciously sedated Sinclair pigs were subjected to exponential hemorrhage of 65% total blood volume over 60 minutes. Animals were randomized into 3 groups (n = 7): (1) Positive control (PC) received immediate transfusion of shed blood after hemorrhage, (2) 30min-cREBOA (A30) received Zone 1 cREBOA for 30 minutes, and (3) 60min-cREBOA (A60) given Zone 1 cREBOA for 60 minutes. The A30 and A60 groups were followed by resuscitation with shed blood post-cREBOA and observed for 4h. Metabolic and hemodynamic effects, coagulation parameters, inflammatory and end organ consequences were monitored and assessed. RESULTS Compared with 30min-cREBOA, 60min-cREBOA resulted in (1) increased IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β in distal organs (kidney, jejunum, and liver) (p < 0.05) and decreased reduced glutathione in kidney and liver (p < 0.05), (2) leukopenia, neutropenia, and coagulopathy (p < 0.05), (3) blood pressure decline (p < 0.05), (4) metabolic acidosis and hyperkalemia (p < 0.05), and (5) histological injury of kidney and jejunum (p < 0.05) as well as higher levels of creatinine, AST, and ALT (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION 30min-cREBOA seems to be a feasible and effective adjunct in supporting central perfusion during severe hemorrhage. However, prolonged cREBOA (60min) adverse effects such as distal organ inflammation and injury must be taken into serious consideration.

Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta vs Pre-Peritoneal Packing in Patients with Pelvic Fracture. J Am Coll Surg 2020; 232:17-26.e2. [PMID: 33022396 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamcollsurg.2020.08.763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Revised: 07/28/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pelvic hemorrhage is potentially lethal despite homeostatic interventions such as pre-peritoneal packing (PP), resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA), surgery, and/or angioembolization. REBOA may be used as an alternative/adjunct to PP for temporizing bleeding in patients with pelvic fractures. Our study aimed to compare the outcomes of REBOA and/or PP, as temporizing measures, in blunt pelvic fracture patients. We hypothesized that REBOA is associated with worsened outcomes. STUDY DESIGN We performed a 2017 review of the American College of Surgeons Trauma Quality Improvement Program (ACS-TQIP) and identified trauma patients with blunt pelvic fractures who underwent REBOA placement and/or PP before laparotomy and/or angioembolization. Propensity score matching was performed, adjusting for demographics, vitals, mechanism of injury, ISS, each body region-AIS, and pelvic fracture type. Outcomes were complication rates and mortality. RESULTS A total of 156 patients (PP: 52; REBOA: 52; REBOA+PP: 52) were matched and included. Mean age was 43 ± 18 years, Injury Severity Score (ISS) was 28 (range 17-32), and 74% were males. Overall mortality was 42%. The 24-hour mortality (25% vs 14% vs 35%; p = 0.042), in-hospital mortality (44% vs 29% vs 54%; p = 0.034), and 4-hour pRBC units transfused (15 [9-23] vs 10 [4-19] vs 16 [9-27]; p = 0.017) were lower in the REBOA group. The REBOA group had faster times to both laparotomy (p = 0.040) and/or angioembolization (p = 0.012). There was no difference between the groups in acute kidney injury, lower limb amputations, or hospital and ICU length of stay among survivors. CONCLUSIONS REBOA is a less invasive procedure compared with PP and is associated with improved outcomes. Further clinical trials are needed to define the optimal patient who will benefit from REBOA.

Abstract
Introduction: Aortic occlusion during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) increases systemic arterial pressures. Correct thoracic placement during the resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) may be important for achieving effective CPR. Hypothesis: The positioning of the REBOA in the thoracic aorta during CPR will affect systemic arterial pressures. Methods: Cardiac arrest was induced in 27 anesthetized pigs. After 7 min of CPR with a mechanical compression device, REBOA in the thoracic descending aorta at heart level (zone Ib, REBOA-Ib, n = 9), at diaphragmatic level (zone Ic, REBOA-Ic, n = 9) or no occlusion (control, n = 9) was initiated. The primary outcome was systemic arterial pressures during CPR. Results: During CPR, REBOA-Ic increased systolic blood pressure from 86 mmHg (confidence interval [CI] 71–101) to 128 mmHg (CI 107–150, P < 0.001). Simultaneously, mean and diastolic blood pressures increased significantly in REBOA-Ic (P < 0.001 and P = 0.006, respectively), and were higher than in REBOA-Ib (P = 0.04 and P = 0.02, respectively) and control (P = 0.005 and P = 0.003, respectively). REBOA-Ib did not significantly affect systemic blood pressures. Arterial pH decreased more in control than in REBOA-Ib and REBOA-Ic after occlusion (P = 0.004 and P = 0.005, respectively). Arterial lactate concentrations were lower in REBOA-Ic compared with control and REBOA-Ib (P = 0.04 and P < 0.001, respectively). Conclusions: Thoracic aortic occlusion in zone Ic during CPR may be more effective in increasing systemic arterial pressures than occlusion in zone Ib. REBOA during CPR was found to be associated with a more favorable acid–base status of circulating blood. If REBOA is used as an adjunct in CPR, it may be of importance to carefully determine the aortic occlusion level. The study was performed following approval of the Regional Animal Ethics Committee in Linköping, Sweden (application ID 418).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the current use of the ER-REBOA catheter and associated outcomes and complications. INTRODUCTION Noncompressible truncal hemorrhage is the leading cause of potentially preventable death in trauma patients. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a novel strategy to obtain earlier temporary hemorrhage control, supporting cardiac, and cerebral perfusion before definitive hemostasis. METHODS Prospective, observational study conducted at 6 Level 1 Trauma Centers over 12-months. Inclusion criteria were age >15 years of age with evidence of truncal hemorrhage below the diaphragm and decision for emergent hemorrhage control intervention within 60 minutes of arrival. REBOA details, demographics, mechanism of injury, complications, and outcomes were collected. RESULTS A total of 8166 patients were screened for enrollment. In 75, REBOA was utilized for temporary hemorrhage control. Blunt injury occurred in 80% with a median injury severity score (ISS) 34 (21, 43). Forty-seven REBOAs were placed in Zone 1 and 28 in Zone 3. REBOA inflation increased systolic blood pressure from 67 (40, 83) mm Hg to 108 (90, 128) mm Hg 5 minutes after inflation (P = 0.02). Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was ongoing during REBOA insertion in 17 patients (26.6%) and 10 patients (58.8%) had return of spontaneous circulation after REBOA inflation. The procedural complication rate was 6.6%. Overall mortality was 52%. CONCLUSION REBOA can be used in blunt and penetrating trauma patients, including those in arrest. Balloon inflation uniformly improved hemodynamics and was associated with a 59% rate of return of spontaneous circulation for patients in arrest. Use of the ER-REBOA catheter is technically safe with a low procedural complication rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The resuscitation of patients in shock is materially intensive and many patients are refractory to maximal therapy. We hypothesized that partial inflation of an intra-aortic balloon, termed Endovascular Perfusion Augmentation for Critical Care (EPACC), would minimize material requirements while improving physiologic metrics. METHODS Swine underwent a 25% controlled bleed and 45 min of complete aortic occlusion to create a severe ischemia-reperfusion shock state. Animals received either standardized critical care (SCC) composed of IV fluids and norepinephrine delivered through an algorithmically controlled platform or EPACC in addition to SCC. Physiologic parameters were collected, and blood was sampled for analysis. Primary outcomes were total IV fluids and average MAP during the critical care phase. Differences (P < 0.05) were measured with t test (continuous data) and Wilcoxon rank-sum test (ordinal data). RESULTS There were no differences in baseline characteristics. There were no differences in the maximum lactate; however, animals in the EPACC group had a higher average MAP (EPACC 65 mmHg, 95% confidence interval [CI], 65-66; SCC 60 mmHg, 95% CI, 57-63; P < 0.01) and remained within goal MAP for a greater period of time (EPACC 95.3%, 95% CI, 93.2-97.4; SCC 51.0%, 95% CI, 29.5-72.6; P < 0.01). EPACC animals required less IV fluids when compared with the SCC group (EPACC 21 mL/kg, 95% CI, 0-42; SCC 96 mL/kg, 95% CI, 76-117; P < 0.01). There were no differences in final lactate. Animals in the EPACC group had a higher final creatinine (EPACC 2.3 mg/dL, 95% CI, 2.1-2.5; SCC 1.7 mg/dL, 95% CI, 1.4-2.0; P < 0.01), but there were no differences in renal cellular damage on histology (P = 0.16). CONCLUSION Using a swine model of severe shock, the addition of EPACC to SCC significantly reduced fluid resuscitation requirements and improved blood pressure. This is the first description of a new therapy for patients in refractory shock or in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is accepted as a resuscitation adjunct and bridge to definitive hemostasis. The ischemic burden of REBOA may be mitigated by a partial REBOA (P-REBOA) strategy permitting longer occlusion times and military use for combat trauma. We evaluated REBOA and P-REBOA in a swine multiple trauma model with uncontrolled solid organ hemorrhage and delayed resuscitation and surgical hemostasis. METHODS Anesthetized swine (51.9 ± 2.2 kg) had 20 mL/kg hemorrhage and closed femur fracture. Splenic transection was performed and free bleeding permitted for 10 minutes. Controls (n = 5) were hemorrhaged but had no REBOA, REBOA (n = 8) had 60 minutes complete zone 1 occlusion, P-REBOA (n = 8) had 15 minutes complete occlusion and 45 minutes 50% occlusion. Splenectomy was performed and plasma (15 mL/kg) resuscitation initiated 5 minutes prior to deflation. Resuscitation goal was 80 mm Hg systolic with epinephrine as needed. Animals were monitored for 6 hours. RESULTS An initial study with 120-minute occlusion had universal fatality in three REBOA (upon deflation) and three P-REBOA animals (after 60 minutes inflation). With 60-minute occlusion, mortality was 100%, 62.5%, and 12.5% in the control, REBOA, and P-REBOA groups, respectively (p < 0.05). Survival time was shorter in controls (120 ± 89 minutes) than REBOA and P-REBOA groups (241 ± 139, 336 ± 69 minutes). Complete REBOA hemorrhaged less during inflation (1.1 ± 0.5 mL/kg) than Control (5.6 ± 1.5) and P-REBOA (4.3 ± 1.4), which were similar. Lactate was higher in the REBOA group compared with the P-REBOA group after balloon deflation, remaining elevated. Potassium increased in REBOA after deflation but returned to similar levels as P-REBOA by 120 minutes. CONCLUSION In a military relevant model of severe uncontrolled solid organ hemorrhage 1-hour P-REBOA improved survival and mitigated hemodynamic and metabolic shock. Two hours of partial aortic occlusion was not survivable using this protocol due to ongoing hemorrhage during inflation. There is potential role for P-REBOA as part of an integrated minimally invasive field-expedient hemorrhage control and resuscitation strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a torso hemorrhage control adjunct. Aortic branch vessel flow (BVF) during REBOA is poorly characterized and has implications for ischemia-reperfusion injury. The aim of this study is to quantify BVF in hypovolemic shock with and without REBOA. METHODS Female swine (79-90 kg) underwent anesthesia, 40% controlled hemorrhage and sonographic flow monitoring of the carotid, hepatic, superior mesenteric, renal, and femoral arteries. Animals were randomized to REBOA (n = 5) or no-REBOA (n = 5) for 4 hours, followed by full resuscitation and balloon deflation for 1 hour. RESULTS All animals were successfully induced into hemorrhagic shock with a mean decrease of flow in all vessels of 50% from baseline (p < 0.001). Deployment of REBOA resulted in a 200% to 400% increase in carotid flow, but near complete abolition of BVF distal to the balloon. The no-REBOA group saw recovery of BVF to 100% of baseline in all measured vessels, except the hepatic at 50% to 75%. two-way analysis of variance confirmed a significant difference between the groups throughout the protocol (p < 0.001). During resuscitation, the REBOA group saw BVF restore to between 25% and 50%, but never achieving baseline values. The lactate at 4 hours was significantly higher in the REBOA versus no-REBOA group (17.2 ± 0.1 vs. 4.9 ± 1.4; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION REBOA not only abolishing BVF during occlusion, but appears to have a post-REBOA effect, reducing visceral perfusion. This may be a source of REBOA associated ischemia-reperfusion injury and warrants further investigation in order to mitigate this effect.

Abstract
EndoVascular and Hybrid Trauma Management (EVTM) has been recently introduced in the treatment of severe pelvic ring injuries. This multimodal method of hemorrhage management counts on several strategies such as the REBOA (resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta). Few data exist on the use of REBOA in patients with a severely injured pelvic ring. The ABO (aortic balloon occlusion) Trauma Registry is designed to capture data for all trauma patients in hemorrhagic shock where management includes REBOA placement. Among all patients included in the ABO registry, 72 patients presented with severe pelvic injuries and were the population under exam. 66.7% were male. Mean and median ISS were respectively 43 and 41 (SD ± 13). Isolated pelvic injuries were observed in 12 patients (16.7%). Blunt trauma occurred in 68 patients (94.4%), penetrating in 2 (2.8%) and combined in 2 (2.8%). Type of injury: fall from height in 15 patients (23.1%), traffic accident in 49 patients (75.4%), and unspecified impact in 1 patient (1.5%). Femoral access was gained pre-hospital in 1 patient, in emergency room in 43, in operating room in 12 and in angio-suite in 16. REBOA was positioned in zone 1 in 59 patients (81,9%), in zone 2 in 1 (1,4%) and in zone 3 in 12 (16,7%). Aortic occlusion was partial/periodical in 35 patients (48,6%) and total occlusion in 37 patients (51,4%). REBOA associated morbidity rate: 11.1%. Overall mortality rate was 54.2% and early mortality rate (≤ 24 h) was 44.4%. In the univariate analysis, factors related to early mortality (≤ 24 h) are lower pH values (p = 0.03), higher base deficit (p = 0.021), longer INR (p = 0.012), minor increase in systolic blood pressure after the REBOA inflation (p = 0.03) and total aortic occlusion (p = 0.008). None of these values resulted significant in the multivariate analysis. In severe hemodynamically unstable pelvic trauma management, REBOA is a viable option when utilized in experienced centers as a bridge to other treatments; its use might be, however, accompanied with severe-to-lethal complications.

Abstract
Importance The need for improved methods of hemorrhage control and resuscitation has resulted in a reappraisal of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA). However, there is a paucity of data regarding the use of REBOA on a multi-institutional level in the United States. Objective To evaluate the outcomes in trauma patients after REBOA placement. Design, Setting, and Participants A case-control retrospective analysis was performed of the 2015-2016 American College of Surgeons Trauma Quality Improvement Program data set, a national multi-institutional database of trauma patients in the United States. A total of 593 818 adult trauma patients (aged ≥18 years) were analyzed and 420 patients were matched and included in the study; patients who were dead on arrival or were transferred from other facilities were excluded. Trauma patients who underwent REBOA placement in the ED were identified and matched with a similar cohort of patients (the no-REBOA group). Both groups were matched in a 1:2 ratio using propensity score matching for demographics, vital signs, mechanism of injury, injury severity score, head abbreviated injury scale score, each body region abbreviated injury scale score, pelvic fractures, lower extremity vascular injuries and fractures, and number and grades of intra-abdominal solid organ injuries. Main Outcomes and Measures Outcome measures were the rates of complications and mortality. Results Of 593 818 trauma patients, 420 patients (the REBOA group, 140 patients; 36 women and 104 men; mean [SD] age, 44 [20] years; the no-REBOA group, 280 patients; 77 women and 203 men; mean [SD] age, 43 [19] years) were matched and included in the analysis. Among the REBOA group, median injury severity score was 29 (interquartile range [IQR], 18-38) and 129 patients (92.1%) had a blunt mechanism of injury. There was no significant difference between groups in median 4-hour blood transfusion (REBOA: packed red blood cells, 6 U [IQR, 3-8 U]; platelets, 4 U [IQR, 3-9 U], and plasma, 3 U [IQR, 2-5 U]; and no-REBOA: packed red blood cells, 7 U [IQR, 3-9 U]; platelets, 4 U [IQR, 3-8 U], and plasma, 3 U [IQR, 2-6 U]) or 24-hour blood transfusion (REBOA: packed red blood cells, 9 U [IQR, 5-20 U]; platelets, 7 U [IQR, 3-13 U], and plasma, 9 U [IQR, 6-20 U]; and no-REBOA: packed red blood cells, 10 U [IQR, 4-21 U]; platelets, 8 U [IQR, 3-12 U], and plasma, 10 U [IQR, 7-20 U]), median hospital length of stay (REBOA, 8 days [IQR, 1-20 days]; and no-REBOA, 10 days [IQR, 5-22 days]), or median intensive care unit length of stay (REBOA, 5 days [IQR, 2-14 days]; and no-REBOA, 6 days [IQR, 3-15 days]). The mortality rate was higher in the REBOA group as compared with the no-REBOA group (50 [35.7%] vs 53 [18.9%]; P = .01). Patients who underwent REBOA placement were also more likely to develop acute kidney injury (15 [10.7%] vs 9 [3.2%]; P = .02) and more likely to undergo lower extremity amputation (5 [3.6%] vs 2 [0.7%]; P = .04). Conclusions and Relevance Placement of REBOA in severely injured trauma patients was associated with a higher mortality rate compared with a similar cohort of patients with no placement of REBOA. Patients in the REBOA group also had higher rates of acute kidney injury and lower leg amputations. There is a need for a concerted effort to clearly define when and in which patient population REBOA has benefit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has not been studied in children. We hypothesized that REBOA was feasible and would improve hemorrhage control and survival time, compared to no aortic occlusion, in a pediatric swine liver injury model. METHODS Pediatric swine were randomized to Zone 1 REBOA or no intervention (control). Piglets underwent a partial liver amputation and free hemorrhage followed by either REBOA or no intervention for 30 min, then a damage control laparotomy and critical care for 4 h. RESULTS Compared to control piglets (n = 5), REBOA piglets (n = 6) had less blood loss (34.0 ± 1.6 vs 61.3 ± 2.5 mL/kg, p < 0.01), higher end hematocrit (28.1 ± 2.1 vs 17.1 ± 4.1%, p = 0.03), higher end creatinine (1.4 ± 0.1 vs 1.2 ± 0.1 mg/dL, p = 0.05), higher end ALT and AST (56 ± 4 vs 32 ± 6 U/L, p = 0.01 and 155 ± 26 vs 69 ± 25 U/L, p = 0.05) and required more norepinephrine during critical care (1.4 ± 0.3 vs 0.3 ± 0.3 mg/kg, p = 0.04). All REBOA piglets survived, whereas 2 control piglets died, p = 0.10. CONCLUSION In pediatric swine, 30 min of REBOA is feasible, decreases blood loss after liver injury and may improve survival. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cardiac effects of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) are largely unknown. We hypothesized that increased afterload from REBOA would lead to cardiac injury, and that partial flow using endovascular variable aortic control (EVAC) would mitigate this injury. METHODS Eighteen anesthetized swine underwent controlled 25% blood volume hemorrhage. Animals were randomized to either Zone 1 REBOA, Zone 1 EVAC, or no intervention (control) for 45 minutes. Animals were then resuscitated with shed blood, observed during critical care, and euthanized after a 6-hour total experimental time. Left ventricular function was measured with a pressure-volume catheter, and blood samples were drawn at routine intervals. RESULTS The average cardiac output during the intervention period was higher in the REBOA group (9.3 [8.6-15.4] L/min) compared with the EVAC group (7.2 [5.8-8.0] L/min, p = 0.01) and the control group (6.8 [5.8-7.7] L/min, p < 0.01). At the end of the intervention, the preload recruitable stroke work was significantly higher in both the REBOA and EVAC groups compared with the control group (111.2 [102.5-148.6] and 116.7 [116.6-141.4] vs. 67.1 [62.7-87.9], p = 0.02 and p < 0.01, respectively). The higher preload recruitable stroke work was maintained throughout the experiment in the EVAC group, but not in the REBOA group. Serum troponin concentrations after 6 hours were higher in the REBOA group compared with both the EVAC and control groups (6.26 ± 5.35 ng/mL vs 0.92 ± 0.61 ng/mL and 0.65 ± 0.38 ng/mL, p = 0.05 and p = 0.03, respectively). Cardiac intramural hemorrhage was higher in the REBOA group compared with the control group (1.67 ± 0.46 vs. 0.17 ± 0.18, p = 0.03), but not between the EVAC and control groups. CONCLUSION In a swine model of hemorrhagic shock, complete aortic occlusion resulted in cardiac injury, although there was no direct decrease in cardiac function. EVAC mitigated the cardiac injury and improved cardiac performance during resuscitation and critical care.

Selective aortic arch perfusion with fresh whole blood or HBOC-201 reverses hemorrhage-induced traumatic cardiac arrest in a lethal model of noncompressible torso hemorrhage. J Trauma Acute Care Surg 2020; 87:263-273.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhage-induced traumatic cardiac arrest (HiTCA) has a dismal survival rate. Previous studies demonstrated selective aortic arch perfusion (SAAP) with fresh whole blood (FWB) improved the rate of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after HiTCA, compared with resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers, such as hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (HBOC)-201, may alleviate the logistical constraints of using FWB in a prehospital setting. It is unknown whether SAAP with HBOC-201 is equivalent in efficacy to FWB, whether conversion from SAAP to extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is feasible, and whether physiologic derangement post-SAAP therapy is reversible. METHODS Twenty-six swine (79 ± 4 kg) were anesthetized and underwent HiTCA which was induced via liver injury and controlled hemorrhage. Following arrest, swine were randomly allocated to resuscitation using SAAP with FWB (n = 12) or HBOC-201 (n = 14). After SAAP was initiated, animals were monitored for a 20-minute prehospital period prior to a 40-minute damage control surgery and resuscitation phase, followed by 260 minutes of critical care. Primary outcomes included rate of ROSC, survival, conversion to ECLS, and correction of physiology. RESULTS Baseline physiologic measurements were similar between groups. ROSC was achieved in 100% of the FWB animals and 86% of the HBOC-201 animals (p = 0.483). Survival (t = 320 minutes) was 92% (11/12) in the FWB group and 67% (8/12) in the HBOC-201 group (p = 0.120). Conversion to ECLS was successful in 100% of both groups. Lactate peaked at 80 minutes in both groups, and significantly improved by the end of the experiment in the HBOC-201 group (p = 0.001) but not in the FWB group (p = 0.104). There was no significant difference in peak or end lactate between groups. CONCLUSION Selective aortic arch perfusion is effective in eliciting ROSC after HiTCA in a swine model, using either FWB or HBOC-201. Transition from SAAP to ECLS after definitive hemorrhage control is feasible, resulting in high overall survival and improvement in lactic acidosis over the study period.

Preperitoneal balloon tamponade and resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta: Alternatives to open packing for pelvic fracture-associated hemorrhage. J Trauma Acute Care Surg 2020; 87:18-26.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of preperitoneal balloon tamponade (PPB), resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the orta (REBOA), and open preperitoneal packing (OP) in a realistic animal model of pelvic fracture-associated hemorrhage. METHODS Thirty-nine swine underwent creation of open-book pelvic fracture and iliac vascular injury. Animals were randomized to no intervention (n = 7), OP (n = 10), PPB (n = 9), zone 1 REBOA (n = 7), and zone 3 REBOA (n = 6) at a mean arterial pressure less than 40 mm Hg from uncontrolled hemorrhage. Primary outcome was survival at 1 hour. Secondary outcomes included survival in the immediate 10 m following intervention reversal, peak preperitoneal pressure (PP), blood loss, bleed rate, and peak lactate. RESULTS Prior to injury, no difference was measured between groups for weight, hemodynamics, lactate, and hematocrit (all p = NS). The injury was uniformly lethal without intervention, with survival time (mean) of 5 m, peak PP of 14 mm Hg, blood loss of 960 g, bleed rate of 450 g/m, and peak lactate of 2.6 mmol/L. Survival time (m) was extended to 44 with OP, 60 with PPB, and 60 with REBOA (p < 0.01). Peak PP (mm Hg) was 19 with OP, 23 with PPB, 10 with zone 1 REBOA, and 6 with zone 3 REBOA (p < 0.05). Blood loss (g) was 850 with OP, 930 with PPB, 610 with zone 1 REBOA, and 370 with zone 3 REBOA (p < 0.01). Peak lactate (mmol/L) was 3.3 with OP, 4.3 with PPB, 13.4 with zone 1 REBOA, and 5.3 with zone 3 REBOA (p < 0.01). Only 33% of zone 1 REBOA animals survived the initial 10 m after balloon deflation, compared to 60% for OP, 67% for PPB, and 100% for zone 3 REBOA (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Preperitoneal balloon tamponade and zone 3 REBOA are effective alternatives to OP in this animal model of lethal pelvic fracture-associated hemorrhage. Zone 1 REBOA extends survival time but with high mortality upon reversal.

Efficacy of intermittent versus standard resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta in a lethal solid organ injury model. J Trauma Acute Care Surg 2020; 87:9-17.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-grade solid organ injury is a major cause of mortality in trauma. Use of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) can be effective but is limited by ischemia-reperfusion injury. Intermittent balloon inflation/deflation has been proposed as an alternative, but the safety and efficacy prior to operative hemorrhage control is unknown. METHODS Twenty male swine underwent standardized high-grade liver injury, then randomization to controls (N = 5), 60-min continuous REBOA (cR, n = 5), and either a time-based (10-minute inflation/3-minute deflation, iRT = 5) or pressure-based (mean arterial pressure<40 during deflation, iRP = 5) intermittent schedule. Experiments were concluded after 120 minutes or death. RESULTS Improved overall survival was seen in the iRT group when compared to cR (p < 0.01). Bleeding rate in iRT (5.9 mL/min) was significantly lower versus cR and iRP (p = 0.02). Both iR groups had higher final hematocrit (26% vs. 21%) compared to cR (p = 0.03). Although overall survival was lower in the iRP group, animals surviving to 120 minutes with iRP had decreased end organ injury (Alanine aminotransferase [ALT] 33 vs. 40 in the iRT group, p = 0.03) and lower lactate levels (13 vs. 17) compared with the iRT group (p = 0.03). No differences were seen between groups in terms of coagulopathy based on rotational thromboelastometry. CONCLUSION Intermittent REBOA is a potential viable adjunct to improve survival in lethal solid organ injury while minimizing the ischemia-reperfusion seen with full REBOA. The time-based intermittent schedule had the best survival and prolonged duration of tolerable zone 1 placement. Although the pressure-based schedule was less reliable in terms of survival, when effective, it was associated with decreased acidosis and end-organ injury.

Abstract
Currently, resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is used in trauma surgery for controlling non-compressible torso hemorrhages, as a less invasive option and with fewer physiologic disturbances compared with an invasive emergent thoracotomy for aortic cross-clamping. This can allow improvements in hemodynamic parameters until definitive surgery is performed. REBOA is also used in trauma to prevent hemodynamic collapse in patients who are in severe hemorrhagic shock, as a method to maintain perfusion of the brain and heart while decreasing distal bleeding until hemorrhage control can take place. The major complications reported are acute kidney injury, lower leg amputations, and even death. As experience with REBOA in emergency surgery grows, new indications have been described in the literature. The aim of this study was to assess the expansion of the use of REBOA in other areas of medicine, as well as evaluating the current published series. We performed an online search of PubMed, Medline and SciELO with the term "REBOA" in the last five years, and the articles included were the 14 specifically describing the use of REBOA for non-traumatic conditions. The results suggest that the use of REBOA led to improved bleeding control and increased arterial pressure, reducing blood transfusion requirements and allowing patients to survive to definitive treatment of injuries. In conclusion, the expanded use of REBOA for non-traumatic emergencies appears to be effective. However, prospective studies and well-established protocols for specific indications should be developed to maximize patient outcomes.

Abstract
Trauma is among the leading causes of death in the United States. Technological advancements have led to the development of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) which offers a pre-hospital option to non-compressible hemorrhage control. Due to the prevalence of concomitant traumatic brain injury (TBI), an understanding of the effects of REBOA on cerebral physiology is critical. To further this understanding, we employed a rat model of penetrating ballistic-like brain injury (PBBI). PBBI produced an injury pattern within the right frontal cortex and striatum that replicates the pathology from a penetrating ballistic round. Aortic occlusion was initiated 30 min post-PBBI and maintained continuously (cAO) or intermittently (iAO) for 30 min. Continuous measurements of mean arterial pressure (MAP), intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral blood flow (CBF), and brain tissue oxygen tension (PbtO2) were recorded during, and for 60 min following occlusion. PBBI increased ICP and decreased CBF and PbtO2. The arterial balloon catheter effectively occluded the descending aorta which augmented MAP in the carotid artery. Despite this, CBF levels were not changed by aortic occlusion. iAO caused sustained adverse effects to ICP and PbtO2 while cAO demonstrated no adverse effects on either. Temporary increases in PbtO2 were observed during occlusion, along with restoration of sham levels of ICP for the remainder of the recordings. These results suggest that iAO may lead to prolonged cerebral hypertension following PBBI. Following cAO, ICP, and PbtO2 levels were temporarily improved. This information warrants further investigation using TBI-polytrauma model and provides foundational knowledge surrounding the non-hemorrhage applications of REBOA including neurogenic shock and stroke.

Abstract
Summary The use of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in penetrating injuries is an emerging adjunct in the civilian trauma surgeon’s toolbox for the management of traumatic hemorrhagic shock. Furthermore, within the Canadian civilian context, little has been reported with regard to its use as an assisted damage-control measure in vascular reconstruction of the lower extremity. We report a case of penetrating gunshot injury of the lower extremity where the preoperative deployment of REBOA had a remarkable positive impact in the resuscitation phase and the intraoperative control of blood loss. A description of the procedure and the advantage gained from REBOA are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has the potential to be an alternative to open aortic cross-clamping (ACC). However, its practical indication remains unknown. We examined the usage trend of REBOA and ACC in Japan for severe torso trauma and investigated whether these procedures were associated with the time of death distribution based on a large database from the Japan Trauma Data Bank (JTDB). METHODS The JTDB from 2004 to 2014 was reviewed. Eligible patients were restricted to those with severe torso trauma, which was defined as an abbreviated injury scale score of ≥4. Patients were classified into groups according to the aortic occlusion procedures. The primary outcomes were the rates of REBOA and ACC use according to the clinical situation. We also evaluated whether the time of death distribution for the first 8 h differed based on these procedures. RESULTS During the study period, a total of 21,533 patients met our inclusion criteria. Overall, REBOA was more commonly used than ACC for patients with severe torso trauma (2.8% vs 1.5%). However, ACC was more frequently used in cases of thoracic injury and cardiac arrest. Regarding the time of death distribution, the cumulative curve for death in REBOA cases was elevated much more slowly and mostly flat for the first 100 min. CONCLUSIONS REBOA is more commonly used compared to ACC for patients with severe torso trauma in Japan. Moreover, it appears that REBOA influences the time of death distribution in the hyperacute phase.

Abstract
Background:Unstable pelvic fractures are highly lethal injuries.Objective:The review aims to summarize the landmark management changes in the past two decades.Methods:Structured review based on pertinent published literatures on severe pelvic fracture was performed.Results:Ten key management points were identified.Conclusion:These 10 recommendations help diminish and prevent the mortality. (1) Before the ABCDE management, preparedness, protection, and decision are essential to optimize patient outcome and to conserve resources. (2) Do not rock the pelvis to check stability, avoid logrolling but prophylactic pelvic binder can be life-saving. (3) Computed tomography scanner can be the tunnel to death for hemodynamically unstable patients. (4) Correct application of pelvic binder at the greater trochanter level to achieve the most effective compression. (5) Choose the suitable binder (BEST does not exist, always look for BETTER) to facilitate body examination and therapeutic intervention. (6) Massive transfusion protocol is only a temporizing measure to sustain the circulation for life maintenance. (7) Damage control operation aims to promptly stop the bleeding to restore the physiology by combating the trauma lethal triad to be followed by definitive anatomical repair. (8) Protocol-driven teamwork management expedites the completion of the multi-phase therapy including external pelvic fixation, pre-peritoneal pelvic packing, and angio-embolization, preceded by laparotomy when indicated. (9) Resuscitation endovascular balloon occlusion of aorta can reduce the pelvic bleeding while awaiting hospital transfer or operation theater access. (10) Operation is the definitive therapy for trauma but prevention is the best treatment, comprising primary, secondary, and tertiary levels.

Abstract
Background Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) for patients with traumatic torso hemorrhagic shock is available to keep a minimum level of circulatory status as a bridge to definitive therapy. However, the trajectory for placement of REBOA in the aorta has not yet been clearly defined. Methods We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study in the two tertiary critical care and emergency center from December 2014 to October 2018. A total of 28 patients who underwent focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST) were studied via contrast computed tomography (CT), and 27 were analyzed. Results We divided patients into two groups based on our CT findings. The REBOA deflate group included 16 patients, and the inflate group included 11 patients. The median trace value (interquartile range) of the blood vessel center line from the common femoral artery to the tip of REBOA (blood vessel length) and the length of REBOA itself from the common femoral artery to the tip of REBOA (REBOA insertion length) were 56.2 cm (54.5-57.2) and 55.2 cm (54.2-55.6), respectively (p < 0.0001) for the deflated group, and 51.4 cm (42.1-56.6) and 50.3 cm (42.3-55.0) (p = 0.594), respectively, for the inflated group. Conclusions If REBOA was deflated, it was placed 1.0 cm longer than the insertion length of REBOA catheter itself, but that was not the case when inflating REBOA. The individual difference was large to the extent that the balloon inflated and the extent to which the balloon was pushed back toward the caudal depending on the degree of blood pressure. Further studies would be needed to validate the study findings.
