Hyperoxia or Therapeutic Hypothermia During Resuscitation from Non-Lethal Hemorrhagic Shock in Swine

In conclusion, hyperoxia proved to be safe during resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock. The lacking organ-protective effects of hyperoxia compared to resuscitation from near-lethal hemorrhage suggest a dependence of the effectiveness of hyperoxia from shock severity. In line with our previous report, therapeutic hypothermia (and rewarming) was confirmed to be detrimental most likely due to vascular barrier dysfunction.
