Objective To investigate the effects of different means of liquid resuscitation on microcirculation in rats with hemorrhagic shock. Method A model of rats with hemorrhagic shock was established in 40 Wistar rats. The rats were randomly divided into 4 groups according on different means of liquid resuscitation, and killed 24 hours after the examination, group A: without liquid resuscitation; group B: low-molecular-weight-40; group C: 7.5% hypertonic saline,group D:low-molecular-weight-40 + hyperonic saline. As well as the microcirculation in kidney was observed using electron microscope. Results In group without resuscitation, the microcirculation in kidney damaged severely; While in group with hypertonic or low molecule dextran alone, there was harm with dif-ferent degrees, and the microcirculation in kidney was nearly perfect in group with both hypertonic and low molecule dextran alone. Conclusions Different means of liquid resuscitation may infect the microcirculation in kidney, which with both hypertonic and low molecule dextran can protect the microcirculation in kidney.
