Development of a Fatal Noncompressible Truncal Hemorrhage Model with Combined Hepatic and Portal Venous Injury in Normothermic Normovolemic Swine
Figure 5
Hematologic testing for three porcine models of noncompressible truncal hemorrhage.
(A) Serum hemoglobin. (B) Protime. (C) Serum fibrinogen. Time zero = moment of injury; CLI = central liver injury (N = 6); PVR = portal vein resection (N = 6); LLLH = hepatic left lower lobe hemitransection (N = 10). Values shown are mean ± sd; *p<0.05, Kruskal–Wallis one-way analysis of variance on all three time points for a given injury; **p<0.05, Kruskal–Wallis one-way analysis of variance on all three injuries at the indicated time point.
