Objective To study the efficacy and safety of nanometer perfluorocarbon (PFC) in the treatment of hemorrhagic shock, and its role in protecting cerebral cortex nerve cells.Methods Hemorrhagic shock was induced in New Zealand rabbits by arterial bleeding. In the course of the experiment, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, blood gases, hepatic and renal function, and pathological changes in cerebral cortex were observed. Results The survival rate of animals in the experimental group at 12 hours was higher than that of control group, respiration was deeper and respiratory rate was faster, blood pressure and PaO 2 were significantly higher than that in animals of the control group. There was a tendency of acidosis in the control group. Pupil reflex was more sensitive in the experimental group, and hepatic and renal functions were better in the experimental group than that in control group. Pathological observation showed the cerebral cortex was less damaged in the treatment group than that in control group. Conclusions Nanometer PFC was effective in combating hemorrhagic shock, showing no toxicity to liver and kidney, and it could also be used as an effective neuroprotective agent.
