Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions, and the redox potential (RP) that must be maintained for proper cell function, lie at the heart of physiologic processes in critical illness. Imbalance in RP reflects systemic oxidative stress, and whole blood RP measures have been shown to correlate with oxygen debt level over time in swine traumatic shock. We hypothesize that RP measures reflect changing concentrations of metabolites involved in oxidative stress. To test this hypothesis, we compared blood and urine RP with concentrations of multiple metabolites in a swine traumatic shock model to identify meaningful RP-metabolite relationships. METHODS Seven swine were subjected to traumatic shock. Mixed venous (MV) RP, urine RP, and concurrent MV and urine metabolite concentrations were assessed at baseline, max O 2 Debt (80 mL/kg), end resuscitation, and 2 h post-resuscitation. RP was measured at collection via open circuit potential using nanoporous gold electrodes with Ag/AgCl reference and a ParstatMC potentiostat. Metabolite concentrations were measured by quantitative 1 H-NMR spectroscopy. MV and urine RP were compared with time-matched metabolites across all swine. LASSO regression with leave-one-out cross validation was used to determine meaningful RP/metabolite relationships. Metabolites had to maintain magnitude and direction of coefficients across 6 or more swine to be considered as having a meaningful relationship. KEGG IDs of these metabolites were uploaded into Metscape for pathway identification and evaluation for physiologic function. RESULTS Meaningful metabolite relationships (and mean coefficients across cross-validation folds) with MV RP included: choline (-6.27), ATP (-4.39), glycine (5.93), ADP (1.84), glucose (15.96), formate (-13.09), pyruvate (6.18), and taurine (-7.18). Relationships with urine RP were: betaine (4.81), urea (4.14), glycine (-2.97), taurine (10.32), 3-hydroxyisobutyrate (-7.67), N-phenylacetylglycine, PAG (-14.52), hippurate (12.89), and formate (-5.89). These meaningful metabolites were found to scavenge extracellular peroxide (pyruvate), inhibit ROS and activate cellular antioxidant defense (taurine), act as indicators of antioxidant mobilization against oxidative stress (glycine + PAG), and reflect renal hydroxyl radical trapping (hippurate), among other activities. CONCLUSIONS Real-time RP measures demonstrate significant relationships with metabolites attributable to metabolic pathways involved in systemic responses to oxidative stress, as well as those involved in these processes. These data support RP measures as a feasible, biologically relevant marker of oxidative stress. As a direct measure of redox state, RP may be a useful biomarker and clinical tool in guiding diagnosis and therapy in states of increased oxidative stress and may offer value as a marker for organ injury in these states as well.

Abstract
This study describes the implantation of transit-time flow probes on the ascending aorta of rats while minimizing the risk of postoperative complications. Special emphasis is placed on our new method of rat intubation as well as the production of materials necessary for the implantation procedure such as endotracheal tubes and heparin bonded vessel catheters. The effects of these devices on the response to acute hypoxia were studied in rats following a 5–7 day recovery from the implantation procedure. Systemic and microvascular measurements were made on instrumented rats ( n = 5) and non-instrumented controls ( n = 3) that were ventilated with 21%, 15%, 10%, 8% and 5% oxygen. Arterial pressure, PO2, lactate, and base deficit were not different between the implanted and control animals at any inspired oxygen concentration. Microvascular flow in the primary arterioles of the spinotrapezius muscle was also similar between the two groups at all inspired oxygen concentrations. We conclude that this novel methodology facilitates the measurement of whole body oxygen delivery in resting and haemodynamically-stressed rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gaining hemostatic control of lethal vascular injuries sustained in combat using topical agents remains a challenge. Recent animal testing using a lethal arterial injury model has demonstrated that QuikClot zeolite granules (QCG) and the HemCon chitosan bandage (HC) are not capable of providing hemostasis and improving survival over the Army gauze field bandage (AFB). We have developed a new hemostatic agent consisting of a granular combination of a smectite mineral and a polymer (WoundStat) capable of producing hemostasis in the face of high-pressure arterial bleeding. We compared the performance of WoundStat (WS) to QCG, HC, AFB, and the new QuikClot zeolite Advance Clotting Sponge (ACS) in a lethal vascular injury model. METHODS Hemostatic agents were tested using a lethal femoral artery vascular injury model. Twenty-five (5 per group) male swine (42 kg +/- 3 kg) were anesthetized, instrumented, and splenectomized. A lethal femoral artery injury was produced by creating a 6-mm arteriotomy in the vessel. After 45 seconds of hemorrhage, animals were randomized to be treated with AFB (control group), HC, QCG, ACS, or WS. Pressure (200 mm Hg) was applied over the product in the wound for 3 minutes. A second application and 3 additional minutes of pressure was provided if hemostasis was not achieved. Fluid resuscitation was begun at the time of application with 500 mL of Hextend, followed by lactated Ringer's solution at 100 mL/min to achieve and maintain a postapplication mean arterial blood pressure of 65 mm Hg. Animals were observed for 180 minutes or until death. Primary endpoints were survival, survival time, post-treatment blood loss, and amount of resuscitation fluid. RESULTS All animals treated with WS survived to 180 minutes and required only a single application. No animal in the AFB, QCG, or ACS group survived. One animal in the HC group survived. Survival (p < 0.05) and survival times (p < 0.0001) for WS animals were significantly greater than for all other groups. No significant difference in survival or survival time existed between the AFB, QCG, ACS, or HC groups. Post-treatment blood loss (p = 0.0099) and postresuscitation fluid volume (p = 0.006) was significantly less for animals treated with WS than for all other groups. No significant difference in these parameters existed between the AFB, QCG, ACS, and HC groups. CONCLUSION WS was superior to the other hemostatic agents tested in this study of lethal arterial vascular injury. Additional study is warranted on this agent to determine its potential for use in combat and civilian trauma.

Abstract
Resonance Raman spectroscopy offers a mechanism for the noninvasive measurement of in vivo and in situ hemoglobin oxygen saturation (HbO(2)Sat) in living tissue. Clinically informative signals can be provided by resonance enhancement with deep violet excitation. It is notable that fluorescence does not significantly degrade the quality of the signals. During the controlled hemorrhage and resuscitation of rats, signal intensity ratios of oxy- vs. deoxyhemoglobin from sublingual mucosa correlated with co-oximetry values of blood withdrawn from a central venous catheter. The spectroscopic application described here has potential as a noninvasive method for the diagnosis of clinical shock and guidance of its therapy.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Knowledge of central venous pressure (CVP) is considered valuable in the assessment and treatment of various states of critical illness and injury. OBJECTIVES We tested a noninvasive means of determining CVP (NICVP), by monitoring forearm volume changes in response to externally applied circumferential pressure to the upper arm veins. METHODS Sixteen patients who were undergoing CVP monitoring as a part of their care had NICVP determined and compared with CVP. Volume changes were measured in the forearm with mercury-in-silastic strain gauge plethysmography. A pressure cuff is placed in the upper extremity. The cuff is inflated over 5s to a pressure above CVP but below diastolic arterial pressure (40 mmHg). This allows blood into the forearm but prevents venous return. After 45-60 s the cuff is rapidly deflated. NICVP was determined as the cuff pressure noted at the maximum derivative of the forearm volume decrease during deflation. NICVP was then compared to invasively measured CVP taken during the same period. RESULTS A total of 48 trials (three per subject) were performed on 16 patients. The range of CVP recorded was 0-22 mmHg. The correlation between CVP and NICVP was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.95-0.98) (p<0.001). The bias between methods was 0.26 mmHg with the limits of agreement being 3.4 to -2.89 mmHg. When the average of three trials per patients was analysed the bias stayed at 0.26 mmHg but the limits of agreement improved to 2.54 and -2.03 mmHg. CONCLUSION NICVP as determined in this study may be a clinically useful substitute for traditional CVP measurement and may offer a valid tool for early diagnosis and treatment of acute states in which knowledge of CVP would be helpful.

Abstract
We tested the hypotheses that continuous total peripheral resistance (TPR) measurements are superior to intermittent data collection and that variables related to TPR can be used to distinguish between survivors and nonsurvivors (NS), respectively, of prolonged hemorrhagic hypotension (HH). One week after a transit-time ultrasound probe was implanted on their ascending aortas, 21 rats were subjected to 4 h of HH at 40 mmHg. Measurements were made before and up to 4 h after initiation of HH. Additional bleeding or Ringer l-lactate (RL) infusion was used to maintain HH. TPR was continuously measured online using recordings of blood flow and arterial pressure. Approximately 67% of the rats survived ≥3 h; others were considered NS. Data collected at 30-min intervals failed to detect the maximum value of TPR (TPRmax). The times to reach TPRmax were similar for survivors and NS and were strongly correlated with the bleeding end points and with the RL infusion-onset times. However, survivors showed higher TPRmax values than NS ( P < 0.005) and had a significantly longer period than NS during which TPR was above baseline level (116 ± 20 vs. 51 ± 10 min). In conclusion, 1) the transit-time ultrasound technique at high sampling rate allowed continuous and accurate real-time monitoring of TPR, 2) the bleeding end point and RL infusion-onset times may be used as surrogates of the time to TPRmax, 3) TPRmax of survivors and NS could be detected only using a continuous TPR measurement, and 4) differences between survivors and NS could be revealed by the continuous TPR curve.

Abstract
Studies are needed to provide a rigorous examination of the relevance of monitored variables during prolonged hemorrhagic hypotension (HH). This study was designed to investigate the parameters that describe biochemical and O2 transport patterns in animals subjected to HH. Systemic parameters that could differentiate survivors from nonsurvivors were identified. An aortic flow probe was implanted in rats ( n = 21) for continuous measurement of cardiac output. Experiments were performed 6–9 days after surgery. Rats were bled to a mean arterial pressure of 40 mmHg and kept at that level using Ringer-lactate solution. Arterial and venous blood pressures, gases, acid-base status, glucose, lactate, electrolytes, hemoglobin, O2 saturation, heart and respiratory rates, total peripheral resistance, and O2 delivery and consumption were measured before hemorrhage, soon after 40 mmHg was reached, and 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4 h later. Fifty-three percent of rats survived ≥3 h (survivors); others were considered nonsurvivors. Nonsurvivors showed a significantly greater degree of metabolic acidosis than survivors. Arterial Po2, respiratory rate, O2 saturation, O2 content, glucose, and pH were significantly higher in survivors. The rate of Ringer-lactate infusion, arterial K+, and Pco2 were lower in survivors. Arterial K+ and respiratory rate were the only parameters significantly different between survivors and nonsurvivors at all time points during HH. Arterial levels of K+ showed the clearest distinction between survivors and nonsurvivors and may explain the sudden death experienced by animals during HH. The data suggest that early respiratory and metabolic compensations are essential for survival of prolonged HH.
