Abstract:Introduction:
We have previously shown that pREBOA deployment in the thoracic aorta is safe for 2-4 hours, but it is unclear whether the distal blood flow following partial aortic occlusion would lead to ongoing hemorrhage. The objective of this study was to evaluate the hemostatic efficacy of pREBOA in a model of uncontrolled vascular injury.
Methods:
Female Yorkshire swine (n=10, 40-45kg) were anesthetized and instrumented. A through-and-through injur… Show more
