A three-tier Rescue stent improves outcomes over balloon occlusion in a porcine model of noncompressible hemorrhage
CONCLUSION
Compared with aortic balloon occlusion, a Rescue stent offers superior hemorrhage control and survival by virtue of reduced ischemic injury and direct control of the hemorrhagic injury. The Rescue stent may become a useful tool for damage control, especially on the battlefield where definitive repair presents logistical challenges.
