Objective To investigate the effects of two different resuscitation fluids of two different temperatures and two different target MAP on the outcome of hemorrhagic shock in rabbits. Methods Forty adult male rabbits weighing 2.3-3.2 kg were anesthetized with iv pentobarbital sodium 30-35 mg/kg and tracheostomized. Spontaneous breathing was maintained. Hemorrhagic shock was induced according to modified Wiggers method. used. The temperature of the fluids was 23 ℃ (B_1) and 45 ℃ (B_2) respectively. The target MAP was 60 mm Hg (C_1) and 80 mm Hg (C_2). Forty animals were randomly divided into 8 groups (n=5 each) : group A_1B_1C_1; group A_1B_1C_2; group A_1B_2C_1; group A_1B_2C_2; group A_2B_1C_1; group A_2B_1C_2 ; group A_2 B_2 C_1 and group A_2B_2C_2 .Arterial blood samples were obtained from femoral artery at 5 min before blood-withdrawal, immediately after shock was induced and at 1, 2, and 3 h of resuscitation for blood gas analysis and determination of blood lactate concentration and serum concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6. Hemodynamies and changes in mesenteric capillaries were continuously monitored. Results PaO_2 was significantly higher in animals resuscitated with HSD (A_2) than in animals resuscitated with HS (A_1). Blood lactate concentration was significantly higher in group A_1B_1 (HS-23℃) than in group A_2B_1 (HSD-23℃). There was no significant difference in blood lactate concentration between group A_1B_2 (HS-45℃) and group A_2B_2 (HSD-45℃). The 3 factors did not have different effects on mesenteric capillaries. The serum TNF-α and IL-6 concentrations were significantly higher in animals resuscitated with HS (A_1) than in animals resuscitated with HSD (A_2) .Conclusion The effect of resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock is better with HSD than with HS. The resuscitation fluid of 23 ℃ is superior to fluid of higher temperature. The target BP during resuscitation does not influence the outcome of resuscitation.
