Abstract:
Objectives To explore the effects of hyperosmosis of sea water and low temperature on hemorrhage and coagulation sys- tem of dogs after open abdominal injury followed by sea water immersion,and to observe the efficiency of plasma in addition to routine first aid,so as to provide a theoretical basis for the early treatment of open abdominal wound in naval warfare.Methods 24 dogs with open in- jury of the abdomen were randomly divided to three groups with 8 animals for each group.The dogs in control group were not subjected to sea water immersion and received routine treatments;dogs in conventional therapy group were immersed in sea water and then given the routine first aid;dogs in plasma group were immersed with aqua marina and then given a combined treatment of routine first aid plus an in- fusion of plasma.The following parameters were measured and recorded:survival time,body temperature,mean arterial blood pressure, osmotic pressure of plasma,prothrombin time,partial thromboplastin time,d-dimer and factorⅡ.Results Prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time were significantly prolonged,D-Dipolymer increased and factorⅡdecreased after sea immersion with open abdominal wound.The survival time of dogs in plasma group(45.6?12.5h)was significantly longer than that of dogs in both control and conven- tional therapy groups(P
