Erythropoiesis in Multiply Injured Patients

Abstract: Posttraumatic anemia in multiply injured patients is caused by hemorrhage, reduced red blood cell survival, and impaired erythropoiesis. Trauma-induced hyperinflammation causes impaired bone-marrow function by means of blunted erythropoietin (EPO) response, reduced iron availability, suppression and egress of erythroid progenitor cells. To treat posttraumatic anemia in severely injured patients, symptomatic therapy by blood transfusion is not sufficient. Furthermore, EPO, iron, and the use of red cell substitu… Show more

“…Akt also regulates the availability of ATP for the cells because activation of Akt maintains cell survival by allowing cells to continuously import glucose and prevent cells from ATP depletion (20, 41). Because regional hypoxia occurs following trauma-hemorrhage (42, 43), the traumahemorrhage-induced hypoxia produces an unfavorable environment for the production of ATP. Furthermore, the decreased phospho-Akt may exacerbate the ATP depletion, thus resulting in impaired phagocytosis following trauma-hemorrhage.…”

“…After blood loss, an individual's total blood volume and red blood cell (RBC) mass decrease; therefore, oxygen carrying capacity of the blood is reduced. Decreased blood volume accompanied by decreased red cell volume may result from surgery, through donation, or because of injury (18). The body will restore total blood volume within 3 days after donation, initially through plasma expansion, which occurs within the first week after donation (17).…”

“…Inflammation, infection, and injury also profoundly alter erythropoiesis and generally result in anemia. The pathogenesis behind alterations in erythropoiesis involves multiple factors, including cytokine-mediated erythroid apoptosis, a blunted BM response to erythropoietin, reduced iron availability, suppression of erythroid progenitor cell proliferation, and BM egress of erythroid progenitor cells (34,40,50,51). Infection and inflammation also modulate the numbers of platelets.…”
