Abstract:
Objective:To explore the early coagulation function changes of penetrating intestinal firearm injury of pig in high-altitude environments.Methods:Twenty healthy long white piglets were selected and divided into the plain group and the high-altitude group using the random number table method, with 10 pigs in each group. Pigs in the plain group were placed in a plain environment at an altitude of 800 meters, while pigs in the high-altitude group were placed in an experimental chamber simulating an altitude of 6 000 meters for 48 hours. Both groups received pistol gunshot to have firearm penetrating wounds to the abdominal intestinal tract and then returned to the plain observation room. At 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury, coagulation in the peripheral blood and fibrinolytic indexes [prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (Fbg), D-dimer (D-D), and fibrinogen degradation product (FDP)], thromboelastogram (TEG) [reaction time (R), clotting time (K), clot formation rate (α), maximum amplitude (MA) and coagulation composite index (CI) ], platelet parameters [platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR)] in the two groups were detected separately.Results:The PT values at 0 and 2 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 8, 12 and 24 hours than those in the plain group ( P<0.01); there was no significant difference at 4 hours between the two groups ( P>0.05). The APTT values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The TT values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after the injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01); there was no significant difference at 8 hours after injury between the two groups ( P>0.05). The Fbg, D-D and FDP values at 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury were higher in the high-altitude group than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The R values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The K values at 0, 2, 4 and 8 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The α angles at 0, 2 and 4 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The MA values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after the injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The CI values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The PLT values at 0, 2, 4 and 8 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The MPV values at 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The PDW values at 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group ( P<0.05 or 0.01), while there was no significant difference in PDW at 0 hour after injury between the two groups ( P>0.05). The P-LCR values at 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were all significantly higher than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with the plain environments, pig intestinal firearm penetrating injury in the high-altitude environments is more prone to early hypercoagulable state accompanied by mild hyperfibrinolysis, and faster to reach a hypocoagulable state accompanied by obvious hyperfibrinolysis.
