Abstract:
The incidence of and mortality due to acute kidney injury is high in patients with traumatic shock. However, it is unclear how hemorrhage and trauma synergistically affect renal function, especially when timely volume resuscitation is not available. METHOD We hypothesized that trauma impairs renal tolerance to prolonged hemorrhagic hypotension. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into six groups: control, extremity trauma (ET), hemorrhage at 70 mm Hg (70-H), hemorrhage at 55 mm Hg (55-H), ET + 70 mm Hg (70-ETH), and ET + 55 mm Hg (55-ETH). Animals were anesthetized, and ET was induced via soft tissue injury and closed fibula fracture. Hemorrhage was performed via catheters 5 minutes after ET with target mean arterial pressure (MAP) clamped at 70 mm Hg or 55 mm Hg for up to 3 hours. Blood and urine samples were collected to analyze plasma creatinine (Cr), Cr clearance (CCr), renal oxygen delivery (DO 2 ), urinary albumin, and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1). RESULTS Extremity trauma alone did not alter renal hemodynamics, DO 2 , or function. In 70-H, CCr was increased following hemorrhage, while Cr, renal vascular resistance (RVR), KIM-1, and albumin levels remained unchanged. Compared with 70-H, ET + 70 mm Hg exhibited increases in Cr and RVR with decreases in CCr and DO 2 . In addition, ET decreased the blood volume loss required to maintain MAP = 70 mm Hg by approximately 50%. Hemorrhage at 55 mm Hg and ET + 55 mm Hg exhibited a marked and similar decrease in CCr and increases in RVR, Cr, KIM-1, and albumin. However, ET greatly decreased the blood volume loss required to maintain MAP at 55 mm Hg and led to 50% mortality. CONCLUSION These results suggest that ET impairs renal and systemic tolerance to prolonged hemorrhagic hypotension. Thus, traumatic injury should be considered as a critical component of experimental studies investigating outcomes and treatment following hemorrhagic shock.
