Abstract:
Hemorrhagic shock is a medical complication caused by the reduction of circulation blood in body. The routine treatment of hemorrhagic shock is to infuse blood or substitute. However, the duration of blood storage is short,the procedures for matching of blood are necessary, and there is the risk of spreading some hematogenous diseases. All these have limited the use of blood-transfusion in the emergent situations such as disaster and war. Thus, the research of blood substitutes is promoted. Considering the scarcity of domestic research report on the use of blood substitutes for the treatment of hemorrhagic shock, we present an overview in this paper.
