title: The impact on renal function of fluid resuscitation with hemoglobin vesicle solution in moderate hemorrhagic shock.
abstract: In this study, hemoglobin vesicle (HbV), a type of artificial oxygen carrier, was infused in a hemorrhagic shock model, and the findings were compared with those of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion to evaluate the effects on blood pressure and renal function. In rats maintained in hemorrhagic shock for 30 min under general anesthesia, either irradiated stored RBCs from the same strain or HbVs were used for resuscitation. Blood pressure, serum creatinine concentration, and creatinine clearance 24 h after shock were measured. At 2 and 24 h after shock, the kidneys were removed, and the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) mRNA level was measured. A histopathology study was performed 24 h after shock. In both the RBC and HbV group, blood pressure recovered significantly immediately after fluid resuscitation, and blood pressure 24 h after shock did not differ significantly between the two groups. Serum creatinine concentration and creatinine clearance 24 h after shock did not differ significantly between the two groups. After 24 h, there was no significant difference in HO-1 mRNA between the groups. In the renal histopathology samples taken at 24 h after shock, there were no obvious differences between the two groups. In conclusion, HbV transfusion improved blood pressure in a manner equivalent to RBC transfusion when administered during hemorrhagic shock, and no renal dysfunction was apparent after 24 h.
