Basics First

Shock is imbalance of DO2 and VO2

• Resuscitation is complete when...– O2 debt is repaid

– Tissue acidosis is eliminated– Aerobic metabolism restored

Porter JM, Ivatury RR, J Trauma, 1998;44:908.

Severe Under-Resuscitation in Trauma is Shock

• …However we define this and with whatever monitors we use to determine endpoints

• ATLS Manual, 1993– An abnormality of the circulatory system that results in

inadequate organ perfusion and tissue oxygenation…

Lecture goals

• Cellular energetics during "acute illness"

• Systemic organ perfusion monitoring

• Selective organ perfusion monitoring / goals

• Old and new logistics of trauma

Hemorrhage and Trauma

• New algorhythm in severe trauma:– Damage control resuscitation strategy– Focused on halting / preventing lethal triad:

• Coagulopathy• Acidosis• Hypothermia

Cosgriff N, et al. Predicting life-threatening coagulopathy in the massively transfused patient:Hypothermia and acidosis revisited. J Trauma. 1997.

Coagulopathy: How Quick ?

• Loss of Coagulation factors– 1 Blood volume (BV) -

35% of factors remain– 2 BVs – 10% - 15%

remain– 3 BVs – 5% remain

• 20% - 30% of activity required for hemostasis

• Factors also consumed with clotting

• 1,088 Pts 1993 – 1998• Arrival to ED from scene ~ 73 min• 24% had coagulopathy (PT > 18, aPTT > 60 sec, TT >

15 sec) • Mortality for those with coagulopathy 46%

vs 11% in those without

Brohi K, et al: J Trauma, 2003;54:1127

Blood & Co: New Trauma Trends

MT = > 10 units PRBC / 24 hrs

Critical Revision of Old Trauma Trends

• Crystalloids are good for you– LR developed for diarrhea

• Fresh whole blood is bad for you• Plasma is a bad resuscitation fluid• Platelets should be given after the “surgical

bleeding” is controlled• Laboratory data are helpful in a rapidly bleeding

patient• RBCs today do not resemble those studied in the 70’s• No data in trauma as whole blood transitioned to

component therapy

ASA Guidelines on FFP Transfusion

• Blood usually coagulates appropriately when:– Coagulation factor concentrations are at least 20% - 30%

of normal – Fibrinogen is > 75 mg / dL

• Clinical coagulopathy from dilution does not occur until:– Replacement exceeds 1 BV or– PT / PTT exceeds 1.5 – 1.8 times control values

• With hypothermia1

– Coagulation enzyme reactions decreased by 10% / °C

1. Armand R, Hess JR: Treating Coagulopathy in Trauma Patients. Trans Med Rev, 2003;17 (3):223 – 231

Hemorrhagic Shock: MTP

• 80% to 85% of combat deaths not preventable– 66% to 80% of 15% to 20% of survivable combat-

related deaths result from hemorrhagic shock

• Recognition / treatment of coagulopathy important– Most Pts requiring MTP die within 6 hrs of admit

• Lethal triad after trauma:– Bleeding, hypothermia, acidosis

RISKS OF FFP and PLATELETS

• Reports of TRALI from the UK haemovigilance program– Suggest risk from FFP ~ 1 in 50,000 to 60,000 units– May now be the commonest cause of death from transfusion– Is the most frequent serious complication of FFP

• In most of the TRALI cases arising from FFP– Female donors identified as the source of the antibodies– ARC recently limited female donors

• Further lowering risk of a rare complication

Additional Endpoints of Resuscitation

• Oxygen delivery• SvO2 and ScvO2

• Arterial base deficit• Arterial lactate• Gastric tonometry……….• Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)• Physical examination

• DO2 = Q X CaO2 = Q X [(Hb x 1.39 x SaO2) + 0.003 x PaO2)]

For a CO = 5 and Hb = 15: • DO2 = 1000 mL / min or 620 mL / min / m2

• VO2 = Q X (CaO2 - CvO2) = 240 mL / min or 170 mL / min / m2

• O2ER = (CaO2 - CvO2) / CaO2 = 0.27%............or

(SaO2 - SvO2) / SaO2

End Point of Resuscitation in Trauma: Conclusions

• This was a Troglodytic field– Now better– No ABC, no fast surgeon, no mission accomplished

• Non-crystalloids resuscitation is the new buzz – PRBC / FFP / Plts / Cryoprecitate

• BP / Pulse / UOP / MS practical but not accurate• At some point DO2 / VO2 relationship needs to be evaluated

and corrected if feasible• Biomarkers are very reasonable endpoints, as long as

sampled frequently • Fancy toys coming………..stay tuned
