Correlation between local oxygen tension in muscle tissue and survival time in tourniquet shock. 1977

H Rahmer, and J Durst, and G E Schubert

Tourniquet shock was induced in rabbits by constricting one hind leg for 4 hr. Local pO2 on muscle surface was measured by a multiwire platinum electrode according to the method of Kessler. Untreated animals showed anoxic tissue areas after a period of 30 min of reperfusion. All these animals died in shock within 3-4 hr. The glucocorticoid, prednisolone (20 mg/kg), and the proteinase inhibitor, Trasylol (20,000 KIU/kg), were administered 5 min bfore release of the tourniquet. These animals showed normal pO2 values during the 2-3 hr observation period. Tourniquet shock was prevented and survival time prolonged by these agents. This protective effect could be correlated to the oxygen tension in the ischemic region.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007611 Aprotinin A single-chain polypeptide derived from bovine tissues consisting of 58 amino-acid residues. It is an inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes including CHYMOTRYPSIN; KALLIKREIN; PLASMIN; and TRYPSIN. It is used in the treatment of HEMORRHAGE associated with raised plasma concentrations of plasmin. It is also used to reduce blood loss and transfusion requirements in patients at high risk of major blood loss during and following open heart surgery with EXTRACORPOREAL CIRCULATION.
