Hypothesis-generating for central sodium effects on hemorrhage tolerance in sheep; leaves open translation to human resuscitation.
Does intracerebroventricular infusion of hypertonic NaCl improve tolerance to haemorrhage in conscious sheep?
Elevated cerebrospinal fluid sodium concentration increases tolerance to haemorrhage and improves cardiovascular function after blood loss in a sheep model.
Hjelmqvist et al. (1992) studied this question.
