Performance of a Novel Temporary Arterial Shunt in a Military-Relevant Controlled Hemorrhage Swine Model
Abstract
In military trauma, temporary vascular shunts (TVSs) restore arterial continuity until delayed vascular reconstruction, often for a period of hours. A novel US Air Force developed trauma specific vascular injury shunt (TS-VIS) incorporates an accessible sideport for intervention or monitoring which may improve patency under adverse hemodynamic conditions. Our objective was to evaluate TS-VIS patency in the setting of volume-limited resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock.
