From: Ideal resuscitation pressure for uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock in different ages and sexes of rats
Effects of different target resuscitation pressures on tissue blood flow in the liver, kidney and brain. (A), (B), (C): Liver blood flow in 6-week-old rats, 14-week-oldrats and 1.5-year-old rats. (D), (E), (F): Kidney blood flow in 6-week-old rats, 14-week-oldrats and 1.5-year-old rats. (G), (H), (I): Brain blood flow in 6-week-old rats, 14-week-oldrats and 1.5-year-old rats. Data presented as mean ± standard deviation (n = 8/group). Analysis of variance showed there were significant differences in the changes of tissue blood flow of the liver, kidney and brain after fluid infusion between ages and different target resuscitation pressures (P < 0.01), but no significant difference between sexes (P > 0.05). #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 versus 40 mmHg group (post-hoc Tukey test).
