Abstract
- Introduction: It is difficult to estimate the ischemic consequences when using partial resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA). The aim was to investigate if end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) is correlated to degree of aortic occlusion, measured as distal aortic blood flow, and distal organ metabolism, estimated as systemic oxygen consumption (VO2), in a porcine model of normovolemia and hemorrhagic shock.<br />Materials and Methods: Nine anesthetized pigs (25-32 kg) were subjected to incremental steps of zone 1 aortic occlusion (reducing distal aortic blood flow by 33%, 66%, and 100%) during normovolemia and hemorrhagic grade IV shock. Hemodynamic and respiratory variables, and blood samples, were measured. Systemic VO2 was correlated to ETCO2 and measures of partial occlusion previously described.<br />Results: Aortic occlusion gradually lowered distal blood flow and pressure, whereas ETCO2, VO2 and carbon dioxide production decreased at 66% and 100% aortic occlusion. Aortic blood flow correlated significantly to ETCO2 during both normovolemia and hemorrhage (R = 0.84 and 0.83, respectively) and to femoral mean pressure (R = 0.92 and 0.83, respectively). Systemic VO2 correlated strongly to ETCO2 during both normovolemia and hemorrhage (R = 0.91 and 0.79, respectively), blood flow of the superior mesenteric artery (R = 0.77 and 0.85, respectively) and abdominal aorta (R = 0.78 and 0.78, respectively), but less to femoral blood pressure (R = 0.71 and 0.54, respectively).<br />Conclusion: ETCO2 was correlated to distal aortic blood flow and VO2 during incremental degrees of aortic occlusion thereby potentially reflecting the degree of aortic occlusion and the ischemic consequences of partial REBOA. Further studies of ETCO2, and potential confounders, in partial REBOA are needed before clinical use.<br />Competing Interests: The authors wish to report no conflicts of interest related to the subject matter.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 by the Shock Society.)
