A Multifunctional, Low-Volume Resuscitation Cocktail Improves Vital Organ Blood Flow and Hemostasis in a Pig Model of Polytrauma with Traumatic Brain Injury

Mechanisms and prevention of intestinal barrier function damage in traumatic hemorrhagic shock

The intestinal barrier is composed of mechanical barrier, chemical barrier, immune barrier, and microbial barrier, which has an important role in defense against microbial invasion. The components of intestinal barrier coordinate with each other under physiological conditions to maintain the homeostasis of intestinal internal and external environment. In traumatic hemorrhagic shock, intestinal barrier function is prone to be impaired by intestinal hypoperfusion, intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury, and many other factors. Bacterial translocation and endotoxin entry into the blood may occur, leading to enterogenic infection, multiple organ dysfunction, and even death. At present, there are many conceptual updates and technical progress on the mechanisms, prevention, and treatment of intestinal barrier function injury in traumatic hemorrhagic shock both at home and abroad. This paper intends to make a literature review in this field based on the previous research of our team, in order to provide a systematic and comprehensive theoretical system for the clinical prevention and treatment of post-traumatic intestinal dysfunction related diseases.
