- © 2020 The Author(s). Background: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) could provide a survival benefit to severely injured patients as it may improve their initial ability to survive the hemorrhagic shock. Although the evidence supporting the use of REBOA is not conclusive, its use has expanded worldwide. We aim to compare the management approaches and clinical outcomes of trauma patients treated with REBOA according to the countries' income based on the World Bank Country and Lending Groups. Methods: We used data from the AORTA (USA) and the ABOTrauma (multinational) registries. Patients were stratified into two groups: (1) high-income countries (HICs) and (2) low-to-middle income countries (LMICs). Propensity score matching extracted 1:1 matched pairs of subjects who were from an LMIC or a HIC based on age, gender, the presence of pupillary response on admission, impeding hypotension (SBP ≤ 80), trauma mechanism, ISS, the necessity of CPR on arrival, the location of REBOA insertion (emergency room or operating room) and the amount of PRBCs transfused in the first 24 h. Logistic regression (LR) was used to examine the association of LMICs and mortality. Results: A total of 817 trauma patients from 14 countries were included. Blind percutaneous approach and surgical cutdown were the preferred means of femoral cannulation in HICs and LIMCs, respectively. Patients from LMICs had a significantly higher occurrence of MODS and respiratory failure. LR showed no differences in mortality for LMICs when compared to HICs; neither in the non-matched cohort (OR = 0.63; 95% CI: 0.36-1.09; p = 0.1) nor in the matched cohort (OR = 1.45; 95% CI: 0.63-3,33; p = 0.3). Conclusion: There is considerable variation in the management practices of REBOA and the outcomes associated with this intervention between HICs and LMICs. Although we found significant differences in multiorgan and respiratory failure rates, there were no differences in the risk-adjusted odds of mortality between the groups analyzed. Trauma surgeons practicing REBOA around the world should joint efforts to standardize the practice of this endovascular technology worldwide.

- © 2020 The Author(s). Background: Severely injured trauma patients suffering from traumatic cardiac arrest (TCA) and requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rarely survive. The role of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) performed early after hospital admission in patients with TCA is not well-defined. As the use of REBOA increases, there is great interest in knowing if there is a survival benefit related to the early use of REBOA after TCA. Using data from the ABOTrauma Registry, we aimed to study the role of REBOA used early after hospital admission in trauma patients who required pre-hospital CPR. Methods: Retrospective and prospective data on the use of REBOA were collected from the ABOTrauma Registry from 11 centers in seven countries globally between 2014 and 2019. In all patients with pre-hospital TCA, the predicted probability of survival, calculated with the Revised Injury Severity Classification II (RISC II), was compared with the observed survival rate. Results: Of 213 patients in the ABOTrauma Registry, 26 patients (12.2%) who had received pre-hospital CPR were identified. The median (range) Injury Severity Score (ISS) was 45.5 (25-75). Fourteen patients (54%) had been admitted to the hospital with ongoing CPR. Nine patients (35%) died within the first 24 h, while seventeen patients (65%) survived post 24 h. The survival rate to hospital discharge was 27% (n = 7). The predicted mortality using the RISC II was 0.977 (25 out of 26). The observed mortality (19 out of 26) was significantly lower than the predicted mortality (p = 0.049). Patients not responding to REBOA were more likely to die. Only one (10%) out of 10 non-responders survived. The survival rate in the 16 patients responding to REBOA was 37.5% (n = 6). REBOA with a median (range) duration of 45 (8-70) minutes significantly increases blood pressure from the median (range) 56.5 (0-147) to 90 (0-200) mmHg. Conclusions: Mortality in patients suffering from TCA and receiving REBOA early after hospital admission is significantly lower than predicted by the RISC II. REBOA may improve survival after TCA. The use of REBOA in these patients should be further investigated.

- Background: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a temporary management modality for non-compressible torso haemorrhage that can be deployed in the pre- and intrahospital setting. This study aimed to compare outcomes following balloon placement in the three aortic zones.Methods: This is a retrospective study using data from the ABO Trauma Registry. Relevant entries from January 2014 to December 2019 were used and stratified into three groups: those who received Zone 1, 2, or 3 balloon placements.Results: The study sample consisted of 237 patients: 63 (27%) women and 174 (73%) men, median age 35 years. The primary location of the REBOA balloon was in Zone 1 for 180 patients, while it was nine in Zone 2 and 48 in Zone 3. Complication rates and total durations did not differ significantly between inflation zones. Emergency department mortality rates for Zones 1 and 2 patients were significantly higher than for Zone 3 (P = 0.04), but there was no difference between groups in 24-hour and 30-day mortality rates.Conclusions: REBOA is currently used in the emergency setting for temporary stabilisation of the bleeding patient. In this cohort, balloon placement occurred in all zones of the aorta for similar durations, with no difference in complication rates between zones. Inadvertent Zone 2 placement was not found to be associated with increased complication rates.

- Background: Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) is a helpful adjunct in the management of hemorrhagic shock due to bleeding in the abdomen or pelvis. Ischemia distal to the occlusion is a concern; intermittent aortic balloon inflation (i-REBOA) is a novel way to achieve decreased ischemia time.Methods: This study was conducted using data from the multinational ABO Trauma Registry. All patients entered between January 2016 and December 2019 were included.Results: The sample consisted of 157 patients. There were 57 patients in the i-REBOA group (36%) and 100 in the REBOA group (64%). The groups were similar in gender (P = 0.50), age (P = 0.17), mechanism of injury (P = 0.42), and injury severity score (P = 0.13). The levels of international normalized ratio (INR) (P < 0.01), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) (P < 0.01) and lactate (P = 0.02) were higher in the i-REBOA group. Total balloon inflation times were longer in the i-REBOA group (P < 0.01). Major complication rates did not differ between groups. Mortality rates between groups were similar in the Emergency Department (ED) (3.8% for i-REBOA vs 10.1%; P = 0.17), within 24 hours (43.4% for i-REBOA vs 38.2%; P = 0.54), and at 30 days (63.6% for i-REBOA vs 48.4%; P = 0.07).Conclusions: The data from this registry show that i-REBOA is currently being used and may allow for longer total balloon inflation times without higher morbidity or mortality rates.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- EndoVascular and Hybrid Trauma Management (EVTM) has been recently introduced in the treatment of severe pelvic ring injuries. This multimodal method of hemorrhage management counts on several strategies such as the REBOA (resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta). Few data exist on the use of REBOA in patients with a severely injured pelvic ring. The ABO (aortic balloon occlusion) Trauma Registry is designed to capture data for all trauma patients in hemorrhagic shock where management includes REBOA placement. Among all patients included in the ABO registry, 72 patients presented with severe pelvic injuries and were the population under exam. 66.7% were male. Mean and median ISS were respectively 43 and 41 (SD ± 13). Isolated pelvic injuries were observed in 12 patients (16.7%). Blunt trauma occurred in 68 patients (94.4%), penetrating in 2 (2.8%) and combined in 2 (2.8%). Type of injury: fall from height in 15 patients (23.1%), traffic accident in 49 patients (75.4%), and unspecified impact in 1 patient (1.5%). Femoral access was gained pre-hospital in 1 patient, in emergency room in 43, in operating room in 12 and in angio-suite in 16. REBOA was positioned in zone 1 in 59 patients (81,9%), in zone 2 in 1 (1,4%) and in zone 3 in 12 (16,7%). Aortic occlusion was partial/periodical in 35 patients (48,6%) and total occlusion in 37 patients (51,4%). REBOA associated morbidity rate: 11.1%. Overall mortality rate was 54.2% and early mortality rate (≤ 24h) was 44.4%. In the univariate analysis, factors related to early mortality (≤ 24h) are lower pH values (p = 0.03), higher base deficit (p = 0.021), longer INR (p = 0.012), minor increase in systolic blood pressure after the REBOA inflation (p = 0.03) and total aortic occlusion (p = 0.008). None of these values resulted significant in the multivariate analysis. In severe hemodynamically unstable pelvic trauma management, REBOA is a viable option when utilized in experienced centers as a bridge to other treatments; its use might be, however, accompanied with severe-to-lethal complications. © 2020, Italian Society of Surgery (SIC).

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is becoming a standardized adjunct for the management in patients with severe non-compressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH). Although guidelines have been developed to help with the best indications for REBOA utilization, no studies have addressed the significance of change in systolic blood pressure (ΔSBP) after REBOA insufflation. We hypothesized that ΔSBP would predict mortality in patients with NCTH and have utility as a surrogate marker for hemorrhage status.STUDY DESIGN: This was an international, multicenter retrospective review of all patients managed with REBOA from the ABOTrauma Registry and the AORTA database. ΔSBP was defined as the difference between pre- and post-REBOA insertion SBP. Based on post-insertion SBP, patient hemorrhage status was categorized as responder or non-responder. A non-responder was defined as a hypotensive patient with systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 90 mmHg after REBOA placement with full aortic occlusion. Significance was set at P < 0.05.RESULTS: A total of 524 patients with NCTH were included. Most (74%) were male, 77% blunt injured with a median (IQR) age of 40 (27 - 58) years and ISS 34 (25 - 45). Overall mortality was 51.0%. 20% of patients were classified as non-responders. Demographic and injury descriptors did not differ between groups. Mortality was significantly higher in non-responders vs responders (64% vs 46%, respectively; P = 0.001). Non-responders had lower median pre-insertion SBP (50mmHg vs 67mmHg; P < 0.001) and lower ΔSBP (20mmHg vs 48mmHg; P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: REBOA non-responders present and remain persistently hypotensive and are more likely to die than responders, indicating a potential direct correlation between ΔSBP as a surrogate marker of hemorrhage volume status and mortality. Future prospective studies will need to further elucidate the impact of Damage Control Resuscitation efforts on ΔSBP and mortality.

- Background: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is becoming a standardized adjunct in the management of non-compressible hemorrhage. Ultrasound (US)-guided femoral access has been taught as the best practice for femoral artery cannulation. However, there is a lack of evidence to support its use in patients in extremis with severe hemorrhage. We hypothesize that no differences in outcome will exist between US-guided and to blind percutaneous or cutdown access methods.Methods: This was an international, multicenter retrospective review of all patients managed with REBOA from the ABOTrauma Registry and the AORTA database. REBOA characteristics and outcomes were compared among puncture access methods. Significance was set at P < 0.05.Results: The cohort included 523 patients, primarily male (74%), blunt injured (77%), with median age 40 (27-58), and an Injury Severity Score of 34 (25-45). Percutaneous using external landmarks/palpation was the most common femoral puncture method (53%) used followed by US-guided (27.9%). There was no significant difference in overall complication rates (37.4% vs 34.9%; P = 0.615) or mortality (47.8% vs 50.3%; P = 0.599) between percutaneous and US-guided methods; however, access by cutdown was significantly associated with emergency department (ED) mortality (P = 0.004), 24 hour mortality (P = 0.002), and in-hospital mortality (P = 0.007).Conclusions: In patients with severe hemorrhage in need of REBOA placement, the percutaneous approach using anatomic landmarks and palpation, when compared with US-guided femoral access, was used more frequently without an increase in complications, access attempts, or mortality.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine the current utilization patterns of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of aorta (REBOA) for hemorrhage control in nontrauma patients.METHODS: Data on REBOA use in nontrauma emergency general surgery patients from six centers, 2014-2019, was pooled for analysis. We performed descriptive analyses using Fisher's exact, Student's t, chi-squared, or Mann-Whitney U tests as appropriate.RESULTS: Thirty-seven patients with acute hemorrhage from nontrauma sources were identified. REBOA placement was primarily performed by trauma attendings (20/37, 54%) and vascular attendings (13/37, 35%). In seven patients (19%), balloons were positioned prophylactically but never inflated. In 24 (65%) of 37 patients, REBOA was placed in the operating room. 28/37 balloons (76%) were advanced to zone 1, 8/37 (22%) were advanced to zone 3, and there was one REBOA use in the inferior vena cava. Most common indications were gastrointestinal and peripartum bleeding. In the 30 cases of balloon inflation, 24 of 30 (80%) resulted in improved hemodynamics. Eleven of 30 patients (37%) died before discharge. One patient developed a distal embolism, but there were no reports of limb loss. Twelve patients (40% of all REBOA inflations and 63% of survivors) were discharged to home.CONCLUSIONS: REBOA has been used in a range of acutely hemorrhaging emergency general surgery patients with low rates of access-related complications. Mortality is high in this patient population and further research is needed; however, appropriate patient selection and early use may improve survival in these life-threatening cases.

Revised Injury Severity Classification II (RISC II) is a predictor of mortality in REBOA-managed severe trauma patients
- 2021

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The evidence supporting the use of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) in severely injured patients is still debatable. Using the ABOTrauma Registry, we aimed to define factors affecting mortality in trauma REBOA patients. Data from the ABOTrauma Registry collected between 2014 and 2020 from 22 centers in 13 countries globally were analysed. Of 189 patients, 93 died (49%) and 96 survived (51%). The demographic, clinical, REBOA criteria, and laboratory variables of these two groups were compared using non-parametric methods. Significant factors were then entered into a backward logistic regression model. The univariate analysis showed numerous significant factors that predicted death including mechanism of injury, ongoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, GCS, dilated pupils, systolic blood pressure, SPO2, ISS, serum lactate level and Revised Injury Severity Classification (RISCII). RISCII was the only significant factor in the backward logistic regression model (p < 0.0001). The odds of survival increased by 4% for each increase of 1% in the RISCII. The best RISCII that predicted 30-day survival in the REBOA treated patients was 53.7%, having a sensitivity of 82.3%, specificity of 64.5%, positive predictive value of 70.5%, negative predictive value of 77.9%, and usefulness index of 0.385. Although there are multiple significant factors shown in the univariate analysis, the only factor that predicted 30-day mortality in REBOA trauma patients in a logistic regression model was RISCII. Our results clearly demonstrate that single variables may not do well in predicting mortality in severe trauma patients and that a complex score such as the RISC II is needed. Although a complex score may be useful for benchmarking, its clinical utility can be hindered by its complexity.

- © 2020, The Author(s). Background: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a minimally invasive procedure being increasingly utilized to prevent patients with non-compressible torso hemorrhage from exsanguination. The increased use of REBOA is giving rise to discussion about “Who is and who should be performing it?” Methods: Data from the international ABO (aortic balloon occlusion) Trauma Registry from between November 2014 and April 2020 were analyzed concerning the question: By who, how, and where is REBOA being performed? The registry collects retrospective and prospective data concerning use of REBOA in trauma patients. Results: During the study period, 259 patients had been recorded in the registry, 72.5% (n = 188) were males with a median (range) age of 46 (10-96) years. REBOA was performed in the ER in 50.5%, in the OR in 41.5%, and in the angiography suite in 8% of patients. In 54% of the patients REBOA was performed by surgeons (trauma surgeons 28%, vascular surgeons 22%, general surgeons 4%) and in 46% of the patients by non-surgeons (emergency physicians 31%, radiologists 9.5%, anesthetists 5.5%). Common femoral artery (CFA) access was achieved by use of external anatomic landmarks and palpation alone in 119 patients (51%), by cutdown in 57 patients (24%), using ultrasound in 49 patients (21%), and by fluoroscopy in 9 patients (4%). Significant differences between surgeons and non-surgeons were found regarding patient’s age, injury severity, access methods, place where REBOA was performed, location patients were taken to from the emergency room, and mortality. Conclusion: A substantial number of both surgical and non-surgical medical disciplines are successfully performing REBOA to an almost equal extent. Surgical cutdown is used less frequently as access to the CFA compared with reports in older literature and puncture by use of external anatomic landmarks and palpation alone is used with a high rate of success. Instead of discussing “Who should be performing REBOA?” future research should focus on “Which patient benefits most from REBOA?”

A randomized porcine study of hemorrhagic shock comparing end-tidal carbon dioxide targeted and proximal systolic blood pressure targeted partial resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta in the mitigation of metabolic injury
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Intensive Care Medicine Experimental. - : Springer. - 2197-425X. ; 11:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: The definition of partial resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (pREBOA) is not yet determined and clinical markers of the degree of occlusion, metabolic effects and end-organ injury that are clinically monitored in real time are lacking. The aim of the study was to test the hypothesis that end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) targeted pREBOA causes less metabolic disturbance compared to proximal systolic blood pressure (SBP) targeted pREBOA in a porcine model of hemorrhagic shock.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty anesthetized pigs (26-35 kg) were randomized to 45 min of either ETCO2 targeted pREBOA (pREBOAETCO2, ETCO2 90-110% of values before start of occlusion, n = 10) or proximal SBP targeted pREBOA (pREBOASBP, SBP 80-100 mmHg, n = 10), during controlled grade IV hemorrhagic shock. Autotransfusion and reperfusion over 3 h followed. Hemodynamic and respiratory parameters, blood samples and jejunal specimens were analyzed.RESULTS: ETCO2 was significantly higher in the pREBOAETCO2 group during the occlusion compared to the pREBOASBP group, whereas SBP, femoral arterial mean pressure and abdominal aortic blood flow were similar. During reperfusion, arterial and mesenteric lactate, plasma creatinine and plasma troponin concentrations were higher in the pREBOASBP group.CONCLUSIONS: In a porcine model of hemorrhagic shock, ETCO2 targeted pREBOA caused less metabolic disturbance and end-organ damage compared to proximal SBP targeted pREBOA, with no disadvantageous hemodynamic impact. End-tidal CO2 should be investigated in clinical studies as a complementary clinical tool for mitigating ischemic-reperfusion injury when using pREBOA.

- Endovascular embolization of bleeding vessels in trauma and non-trauma patients is frequently used and is an important tool for bleeding control. It is included in the EVTM (endovascular resuscitation and trauma management) concept and its use in patients with hemodynamic instability is increasing. When the correct embolization tool is chosen, a dedicated multidisciplinary team can rapidly and effectively achieve bleeding control. In this article, we will describe the current use and possibilities for embolization of major hemorrhage (traumatic and non-traumatic) and the published data supporting these techniques as part of the EVTM concept.

- While reading the novella "Chronicle of a Death Foretold" by the Colombian Nobel Laureate Gabriel García-Marquez, we were surprised to realize that the injuries sustained by the main character could have been successfully treated had he received modern trauma care in which REBOA may have been considered. This is a discussion of Mr. Nasar's murder to explore whether he could have been saved by deploying REBOA as a surgical adjunct to bleeding control and resuscitation. In reading García-Marquez's novel we noted the events that unfolded at the time of Santiago Nasar's murder. To contextualize the claim that Mr. Nasar could have survived, had his injuries been treated with REBOA, we explored and illustrated what could have done differently and why. On the day of his death, Mr. Nasar sustained multiple penetrating stab wounds. Although he received multiple stab wounds to his torso, the book describes seven potentially fatal injuries, resulting in hollow viscus, solid viscus, and major vascular injuries. We provided a practical description of the clinical and surgical management algorithm we would have followed in Mr. Nasar's case. This algorithm included the REBOA deployment for hemorrhage control and resuscitation. The use of REBOA as part of the surgical procedures performed could have saved Mr. Nasar's life. Based on our current knowledge about REBOA in trauma surgery, we claim that its use, coupled with appropriate surgical care for hemorrhage control, could have saved Santiago Nasar's life, and thus prevent a death foretold. © 2022 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins.

- Background: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is currently evolving and being used worldwide for trauma management. Smaller sheath devices for REBOA and new advances in endovascular resuscitation methods suggest the potential for the procedure to be utilized in hemodynamically unstable non-trau-matic patients.Methods: We describe five adult patients that underwent hemodynamic control using the 7 Fr sheath ER-REBOA™ catheters for non-traumatic hemorrhagic instability at Örebro University Hospital between February 2017 and June 2017.Results: The ER-REBOA™ catheter was inserted and used successfully for temporary blood pressure stabilization as part of an endovascular resuscitation process.Conclusion: The ER-REBOA™ catheter for endovascular resuscitation may be an additional method for temporary hemodynamic stabilization in the treatment of non-traumatic patients. Furthermore, the ER-REBOA™ catheter may be a potential addition to advanced cardiac life support in the management of non-traumatic cardiac arrest.

- BACKGROUND: Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) may improve Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) in hypovolemic shock. It has, however, not been studied in patients with impending traumatic cardiac arrest (ITCA). We aimed to study the feasibility and clinical outcome of REBOA in patients with ITCA using data from the ABOTrauma Registry.METHODS: Retrospective and prospective data on the use of REBOA from 16 centers globally were collected. SBP was measured both at pre- and post-REBOA inflation. Data collected included patients' demography, vascular access technique, number of attempts, catheter size, operator, zone and duration of occlusion, and clinical outcome.RESULTS: There were 74 patients in this high-risk patient group. REBOA was performed on all patients. A 7-10Fr catheter was used in 66.7%, 58.5% were placed on the first attempt, 52.1% through blind insertion and 93.2% inflated in Zone I, 64.8% for a period of 30 to 60 minutes, 82.1% by ER doctors, trauma surgeons or vascular surgeons. SBP significantly improved to 90 mmHg following the inflation of REBOA. 36.6% of the patients survived.CONCLUSIONS: Our study has shown that REBOA may be performed in patients with ITCA, SBP can be elevated and 36.6% of the patients survived if REBOA placement is successful.

Hemodynamic Effect of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion Of The Aorta In Hemodynamic Instability Secondary To Acute Cardiac Tamponade In A Porcine Model
- 2022

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: The pre-hospital use of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) is increasing, although remains controversial, in part because of suggested contraindications such as acute cardiac tamponade (ACT). As both the pre-hospital and in-hospital use of REBOA might potentially occur with concurrent ACT, knowledge of the hemodynamic effect of REBOA in this setting is crucial. This study, therefore, aimed at investigating the physiological effects of REBOA in hemodynamic instability secondary to ACT in a porcine model. We hypothesize that REBOA can temporarily increase systemic blood pressure and carotid blood flow, and prolong survival, in hemodynamic shock caused by ACT.METHODS: Fourteen pigs (24-38 kg) underwent ACT, through true cardiac injury and hemorrhage into the pericardial space, and were allowed to hemodynamically deteriorate. At a systolic blood pressure (SBP) of 50 mmHg (SBP50) they were randomized to total occlusion REBOA in zone 1 or to a control group. Survival, hemodynamic parameters, carotid blood flow (CBF), femoral blood flow (FBF), cardiac output (CO), end-tidal CO2 and arterial blood gas parameters were analyzed.RESULTS: REBOA intervention was associated with a significant increase in SBP (50 mmHg to 74 mmHg, p = 0.016) and CBF (110 mL/min to 195 mL/min, p = 0.031), with no change in CO, compared to the control group. At 20 minutes after SBP50, the survival rate in the intervention group was 86% and in the control group 14%, with time to death being significantly longer in the intervention group.CONCLUSIONS: This randomized animal study demonstrates that REBOA can help provide hemodynamic stabilization and prolong survival in hemodynamic shock provoked by ACT. It is important to stress that our study does not change the fact that urgent pericardiocentesis or cardiac surgery is, and should remain, the standard optimal treatment for ACT.Level of evidence: Prospective, randomized, experimental animal study. Basic science study, therapeutic.

- BACKGROUND: Hemodynamic instability due to torso hemorrhage can be managed with the assistance of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA). This is a report of a single-center experience using the ER-REBOA™ catheter for traumatic and non-traumatic cases as an adjunct to hemorrhage control and as part of the EndoVascular resuscitation and Trauma Management (EVTM) concept. The objective of this report is to describe the clinical usage, technical success, results, complications and outcomes of the ER-REBOA™ catheter at Örebro University hospital, a middle-sized university hospital in Europe.METHODS: Data concerning patients receiving the ER-REBOA™ catheter for any type of hemorrhagic shock and hemodynamic instability at Örebro University hospital in Sweden were collected prospectively from October 2015 to May 2020.RESULTS: A total of 24 patients received the ER-REBOA™ catheter (with the intention to use) for traumatic and non-traumatic hemodynamic control; it was used in 22 patients. REBOA was performed or supervised by vascular surgeons using 7-8 Fr sheaths with an anatomic landmark or ultrasound guidance. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased significantly from 50 mmHg (0-63) to 95 mmHg (70-121) post REBOA. In this cohort, distal embolization and balloon rupture due to atherosclerosis were reported in one patient and two patients developed renal failure. There were no cases of balloon migration. Overall 30-day survival was 59%, with 45% for trauma patients and 73% for non-traumatic patients. Responders to REBOA had a significantly lower rate of mortality at both 24 h and 30 days.CONCLUSIONS: Our clinical data and experience show that the ER-REBOA™ catheter can be used for control of hemodynamic instability and to significantly increase SBP in both traumatic and non-traumatic cases, with relatively few complications. Responders to REBOA have a significantly lower rate of mortality.

- OBJECTIVES: In a pilot study investigate the possible use of microdialysis in the calf muscle to assess the metabolic response to intermittent claudication (IC). In addition, evaluate the simultaneous systemic inflammatory reaction.METHODS: With one microdialysis catheter in the gastrocnemic muscle and one subcutaneously in the pectoral region (as a reference), and a peripheral venous catheter, dialysate and venous blood sampling was performed before, during and after walking on a treadmill to maximal tolerable claudication (controls 10 minutes).RESULTS: A total of 9 participants were recruited, six patients with IC and three healthy controls. At baseline, IC and control subjects did not differ in metabolic findings (glucose, lactate, pyruvate, glycerol) in the gastrocnemic muscle. Subcutaneous glucose concentration was higher in controls. After physical exertion, gastrocnemic and subcutaneous glycerol, lactate and pyruvate concentrations increased in IC subjects. Plasma concentrations of Tumor Necrosis Factor--α (TNF- α), Interleucin-6 (IL-6), Interleucin-1ß (IL-1ß), Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) were higher in IC subjects at baseline, and TNF-α, (IL-6) and Interleukin-18 (IL-18) increased after walking as did IL-6 and (IL-1ß) in controls. The muscle catheters did not show any signs of causing harm.CONCLUSIONS: Microdialysis can be used to study the ongoing metabolic response during walking and claudication. Our results suggest both an acute local and a systemic inflammatory reaction during development of claudication pain.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Objective: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been increasingly performed for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAAs). However, multiple randomized trials have failed to demonstrate a survival benefit compared with open aortic surgery. During a 12-year period, 100% of patients without a history of aneurysm surgery had undergone EVAR for a rAAA at orebro University Hospital, with no emergent open aortic surgery performed. In the present study, we evaluated the mortality and technical success during this "EVAR-only" period.Methods: A single-center, retrospective observational study was conducted. We identified all patients who had presented to Orebro University Hospital with a rAAA between October 2009 and September 2021. Patients with isolated iliac artery, thoracic, and thoracoabdominal aortic ruptures were not included. Patients who had received previous aortic interventions (open or endovascular) and patients who had received palliative treatment instead of surgical intervention were also excluded. The patient characteristics, perioperative and postoperative data, and mortality rate were investigated.Results: EVAR had been performed in 100 patients. Preoperative hemodynamic instability had been present in 54 patients (54%), and 18 (18%) had undergone aortic balloon occlusion. The aneurysm location was infrarenal in 89 patients (89%). Bifurcated stent grafts had been used in 97 patients (97%), and adjunct endovascular techniques had been used for 27 patients (27%). Of 98 patients, EVAR had been performed with the patient under local anesthesia for 62 patients (63%). Peri-and postoperative complications at 30 days had occurred in 20 of 100 patients (20%) and 22 of 79 patients (28%), respectively. The overall mortality at 30 days was 27% (27 of 100 patients), and the mortality for those with an isolated infrarenal rAAA was 24% (21 of 89 patients). The overall mortality at 1 year was 39% (39 of 100 patients) and for those with an isolated infrarenal rAAA was 37% (33 of 89 patients). The presence of preoperative hemodynamic instability and the use of ABO were statistically significantly and independently associated with increased 30-day mortality on multivariate logistic regression analysis.Conclusions: All 100 patients who had undergone surgery for a rAAA had been treated using EVAR and endovascular adjuncts, with a relatively low mortality rate, thus continuing the "EVAR-only" approach. A low proportion of rAAA patients were considered surgically unsuitable. These findings support the applicability of EVAR for the treatment of all rAAAs at suitable centers.

EndoVascular resuscitation and Trauma Management in hemodynamic instability
- 2024

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Massive bleeding is a significant health care challenge, particularly in the case of non-compressible torso hemorrhage, with both traumatic and non-traumatic causes. The management of bleeding in the torso poses unique challenges, both anatomically and physiologically. The concept of Endo-Vascular resuscitation and Trauma Management (EVTM) has evolved alongside endovascular surgery over the past two decades. It combines modern endovascular surgical techniques with traditional open surgical management to provide early evaluation, resuscitation, and definitive treatment of both traumatic and non-traumatic bleeding patients. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the feasibility, outcomes and practice patterns of EVTM in patients with hemodynamic instability.Study I was a retrospective cohort study assessing the consecutive use of Endovascular Aortic Repair (EVAR) for all 100 patients with ruptured ab-dominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA). Mortality at 30 days was 27% with a turndown rate of 3.5%.Study II was a retrospective cohort study examining the use of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in patients with impending traumatic cardiac arrest showing that vascular access is feasible and REBOA increases systolic blood pressure (SBP).Study III & IV were animal experimental studies evaluating the use of RE-BOA for hemodynamic instability due to intrathoracic bleeding or acute cardiac tamponade. They showed that REBOA, using different occlusion techniques, maintains permissive hypotension, carotid blood flow and prolongs survival.Study V was a retrospective cohort study comparing outcomes and practice patterns for patients with grade 3 or 4 blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI) treated with TEVAR. Hemodynamically unstable patients have increased risk of complications, prolonged length of hospital stay and increased levels of in-hospital mortality.

- BACKGROUND: Systolic blood pressure (SBP) is a potential indicator that could guide when to use a resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in trauma patients with life-threatening injuries. This study aims to determine the optimal SBP threshold for REBOA placement by analyzing the association between SBP pre-REBOA and 24-hour mortality in severely injured hemodynamically unstable trauma patients.METHODS: We performed a pooled analysis of the Aortic Balloon Occlusion (ABO) trauma and AORTA registries. These databases record the details related to the use of REBOA and include data from 14 countries worldwide. We included patients who had suffered penetrating and/or blunt trauma. Patients who arrived at the hospital with a SBP pre-REBOA of 0 mm Hg and remained at 0 mm Hg after balloon inflation were excluded. We evaluated the impact that SBP pre-REBOA had on the probability of death in the first 24 hours.RESULTS: A total of 1107 patients underwent endovascular aortic occlusion, of these, 848 met inclusion criteria. The median age was 44 years [IQR, 27-59 years] and 643(76%) were male. The median injury severity score was 34 [IQR, 25-45]. The median SBP pre-REBOA was 65 mm Hg [IQR: 49-88 mm Hg]. Mortality at 24-hours was reported in 279 (32%) patients. Math modelling shows that predicted probabilities of the primary outcome increased steadily in SBP pre-REBOA below 100 mm Hg. Multivariable mixed-effects analysis shows that when SBP pre-REBOA was lower than 60 mm Hg, the risk of death was more than 50% (relative risk, 1.5; 95%CI, 1.17-1.92; P = .001).DISCUSSION: In patients who do not respond to initial resuscitation, the use of REBOA in SBP's between 60- and 80-mm Hg may be a useful tool in resuscitation efforts before further decompensation or complete cardiovascular collapse. The findings from our study are clinically important as a first step in identifying candidates for REBOA.STUDY TYPE: Observational Study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.

- BACKGROUND: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a method for temporary hemorrhage control used in haemodynamically unwell patients with severe bleeding. In haemodynamically unwell abdominal trauma patients, laparotomy remains the initial procedure of choice. Using REBOA in patients as a bridge to laparotomy is a novel option whose feasibility and efficacy remain unclear. We aimed to assess the clinical outcome in patients with abdominal injury who underwent both REBOA placement and laparotomy.METHODS: This is a retrospective study, including trauma patients with an isolated abdominal injury who underwent both REBOA placement and laparotomy, during the period 2011-2019. All data were collected via the Aortic Balloon Occlusion Trauma Registry database.RESULTS: One hundred and three patients were included in this study. The main mechanism of trauma was blunt injury (62.1%) and the median injury severity score (ISS) was 33 (14-74). Renal failure and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) occurred in 15.5% and 35% of patients, respectively. Overall, 30-day mortality was 50.5%. Post balloon inflation systolic blood pressure (SBP) >80 mmHg was associated with lower 24-h mortality (p = 0.007). No differences in mortality were found among patients who underwent partial occlusion vs. total occlusion of the aorta.CONCLUSIONS: Our results support the feasibility of REBOA use in patients with isolated abdominal injury, with survival rates similar to previous reports for haemodynamically unstable abdominal trauma patients. Post-balloon inflation SBP >80 mmHg was associated with a significant reduction in 24-h mortality rates, but not 30-day mortality. Total aortic occlusion was not associated with increased mortality, MODS, and complication rates compared with partial occlusion.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: We present two cases of thoracic penetrating injuries that necessitated extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR).Methods: Two male patients were admitted to hospital within 20-25 min: one with a chest stab wound and the other with a gunshot injury. Upon ongoing CPR, patient #1 underwent resuscitative sternotomy. Bleeding from a right ventricle injury was controlled, but cardiac arrest (CA) re-occurred. Patient #2 underwent immediate surgery due to multiple rib fractures and massive hemopneumothorax, and experienced multiple CAs. Due to refractory asystole with ongoing CPR, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was initiated after 100 and 135 min, respectively. Primary lactate levels in cases #1 and #2 were 8 and 20 mmol/L, respectively.Results: In both cases, the femoral artery (17-19 Fr) and vein (25-27 Fr) were cannulated and connected to the Maquet ECMO circuit with a flow rate of 4-5 L/min. Return of spontaneous circulation was achieved within 20 min after ECMO initiation with relative stabilization. In patient #1, postoperative bleeding necessitated re-thoracotomy and hemorrhage control. In patient #2, left pulmonectomy and ligation of intercostal arteries was performed. 12/30 units of red blood cells, 16/45 units of fresh frozen plasma, and 2/8 units of platelets were given in cases #1/2, respectively. Lactate level increased to 25 mmol/L and decreased to 8 mmol/L in 5 hours, respectively. Both patients died in the ICU within 9 and 13 hours after admission due to bleeding.Conclusions: E-CPR allows vital function protection even in traumatic CA but necessitates appropriate resuscitation. If no bleeding control is achieved, then E-CPR is futile.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: The use of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) in resuscitation and trauma management in adults is increasing. However, there is limited data published concerning its use in pediatric patients.Methods: We describe a case using REBOA for traumatic hemorrhagic shock in a pediatric patient according to the concept of EndoVascular resuscitation and Trauma Management (EVTM) at Örebro University Hospital in April 2019. Informed consent has been received.Results: An 11-year-old boy arrived at the emergency room (ER) after a motor vehicle accident. Due to total hemo-dynamic collapse, cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated with return of spontaneous circulation. Zone 1 total REBOA was successfully performed for 7 minutes while damage control surgery was performed and massive transfu-sion was initiated to stabilize the patient. The patient survived and returned to almost normal daily activity.Conclusion: REBOA for endovascular resuscitation and trauma management may be an additional method for tem-porary hemodynamic stabilization in pediatric patients and, in this specific patient, was used instead of resuscitative thoracotomy.
