To determine the efficacy of hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers and conventional fluids during hypothermic hemorrhagic shock.
Anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats underwent hypothermic hemorrhagic shock.
Animals were resuscitated with either FP, pRBCs, or HBOC after blood withdrawal.
Hemodynamic parameters and biomarkers were assessed during and after resuscitation.
Resuscitation increased MAP by 56% (pRBCs), 54% (FP), and 24% (HBOC) 60 minutes post-shock.
Statistically significant increases in IL-6, IL-10, and CXCL-1 were observed across all groups compared to controls.
HBOC demonstrated suitable stabilization in systemic parameters despite less significant changes in MAP.

Randomized trial evaluates resuscitation fluids in hypothermic hemorrhagic shock, indicating HBOCs may stabilize vital parameters.
