A laparoscopic swine model of noncompressible torso hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND Hemorrhage persists as the leading cause of potentially preventable civilian and military death. Noncompressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) is a particularly lethal injury complex, with few contemporary prehospital interventions available. Various porcine models of hemorrhage have been developed for civilian and military trauma research. However, the predominant contemporary models lack...
متن کاملNoncompressible torso hemorrhage: a review with contemporary definitions and management strategies.
Trauma resulting in hemorrhage from vascular disruption within the torso is a challenging scenario, with a propensity to be lethal in the first hour following trauma. The term noncompressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) was only recently coined as part of contemporary studies describing the epidemiology of wounding during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. This article provides a contemporary review...
متن کاملThe epidemiology of noncompressible torso hemorrhage in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
BACKGROUND Noncompressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) is the leading cause of potentially survivable trauma in the battlefield and has recently been defined using anatomic and physiologic criteria. The objective of this study was to characterize the frequency and mortality in combat of NCTH using a contemporary definition. METHODS Four categories of torso injury, each based on vascular disruptio...
متن کاملThe role of REBOA in the control of exsanguinating torso hemorrhage.
The management of patients with exsanguinating torso hemorrhage is challenging. Emergency surgery, with the occasional use of resuscitative thoracotomy for patient in extremis, is the current standard. Recent reports of REBOA (resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta) have led to discussions about changing paradigms in the management of patients in both civilian and military ar...
متن کاملInjury pattern and mortality of noncompressible torso hemorrhage in UK combat casualties.
BACKGROUND Hemorrhage following traumatic injury is a leading cause of military and civilian mortality. Noncompressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) has been identified as particularly lethal, especially in the prehospital setting. METHODS All patients sustaining NCTH between August 2002 and July 2012 were identified from the UK Joint Theatre Trauma Registry. NCTH was defined as injury to a named ...
