[Safety of resuscitation with hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 in hemorrhagic shock rats].

Objective: To evaluate the safety of resuscitation with hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 during the early stage of hemorrhagic shock. Methods: Total of 120 healthy male SD rats of 2 to 3 months of age were selected as the study sample (weighed from 250 to 290 g), all the rats were numbered by staining.After that, the rats were divided into 12 groups by using random number table method: sham group (S group), no liquid resuscitation group (NF group), lactated Ringer's resuscitation group (LR group), HES resuscitation group (HES group). At the same time, the LR and HES resuscitation groups were divided into five subgroups with a concentration of 7.5, 15, 30, 60 and 90 ml·kg(-1)·h(-1,) respectively.The model of uncontrollable hemorrhagic shock was created by the method of exsanguination plus tail-cuffing.Fluid resuscitation was started 30 minutes after the exsanguination and continued for 60 min after transfusion for 15 min.The observation was continued for 330 min.At the end of observation, all rats were sacrificed and blood was collected from the rats to determine the thromboelastograms and the maximum amplitude and related parameters, as well as platelet counts, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, urinary and renal injury molecules, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated apolipoprotein levels.Rat lung tissue specimens were collected and wet weights of the right lung and dry weights after drying were measured.The data were compared by using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), LSD- t test or Dunnett- t test. Results: ANOVA analysis showed that there was no significant difference in mean artery pressure (MAP) values between groups at the beginning of fluid resuscitation ( F =0.934, P =0.245). At the end of fluid resuscitation, the MAP of HES90 group was (40±9) mmHg, which was lower than that in other groups.Compared with other groups, the HES90 group had higher blood loss and blood transfusion rate.There was no significant differences in platelet counts between the HES group and the LR group at 330 min ( t =0.987, P >0.05), but the maximal amplitude (MA) of the thrombelastogram (TEG) was lower in the HES90 group than that in the S group ( t =2.354, P <0.05). No significant difference was detected in blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels between the HES, LR group and the S group ( t =1.098, 0.895, both P >0.05). The total amount of urinary kidney injury molecule 1 (Kim-1) in the HES90 and NF groups increased, neutrophil gelatinase-associated apolipoprotein (NGAL) concentration and urinary NGAL levels were significantly higher than those in other groups, and the difference were statistically significant ( t =3.532-11.209, all P <0.05). Conclusion: Small to moderate doses of HES130/0.4 during hemorrhagic shock is more effective and safer than the same dose of LR.
