Dynamic fluid redistribution in hyperosmotic resuscitation of hypovolemic hemorrhage

Abstract: A mathematical description of blood volume restoration after hemorrhage with resuscitative fluids, particularly hyperosmotic solutions, is presented. It is based on irreversible thermodynamic transport equations and known physiological data. The model shows that after a 20% hemorrhage, the rapid addition of a hypertonic (7.5% NaCl)-hyperoncotic (6% Dextran 70) solution amounting to one-seventh of the shed blood volume reestablishes blood volume within 1 min. Measurements of systemic hematocrit, hemoglobin conc… Show more

“…The beneficial effects of a 7.2% hypertonic saline solution (HSS; 2,400 mOsmol/kg·H 2 O) on cardiopulmonary function in dogs with hemorrhage shock [9,10,14,15,23] were reported. Several possibilities concerning the mechanisms of beneficial effects of a HSS intravenous (IV) infusion have been proposed, as follows.…”

“…Several possibilities concerning the mechanisms of beneficial effects of a HSS intravenous (IV) infusion have been proposed, as follows. One possibility is the expansion of circulating volume [2,3,8,10,13,14,[18][19][20]. A 140 ml infusion of HSS can drew 575 ml and 285 ml of water from interstitial and intracellular fluid compartments, respectively; the expanding plasma volume thus reached 1,000 ml [8].…”

“…This effect of HS probably explains the improved CO after HS infusion. Because osmolality is the driving force for volume distribution, HS causes fluid shift from the intracellular space into the intravascular and interstitial spaces (30). Therefore, it increases the plasma volume more than by its own volume.…”

“…Several mechanisms concerning the beneficial effects of HSS administration have been proposed; one is the expansion of circulating blood volume [2,3,9,12,18]. HSS draws water from interstitial or intracellular fluid compartments, increasing plasma volume, and consequently improves the perfusion of peripheral tissues.…”
