DESIGN
Randomized crossover animal study.
SETTING
Animal laboratory of university-affiliated physiology institute.
SUBJECTS
Seven Merino cross sheep.
INTERVENTIONS
Surgical implantation of transit-time flow probes around sagittal sinus and circumflex coronary, superior mesenteric, and left renal arteries, and of an electromagnetic flow probe around the ascending aorta…

The effect of normal saline resuscitation on vital organ blood flow in septic sheep

In hyperdynamic sepsis resuscitation with normal saline increases central venous pressure, cardiac output, mesenteric blood flow, urine output, creatinine clearance, and fractional excretion of sodium despite a lack of effect on renal blood flow.

In early experimental hypotensive hyperdynamic sepsis, intravenous angiotensin II infusion decreased renal blood while inducing a marked increase in urine output and normalizing creatinine clearance.

Reduced renal blood flow (RBF) is considered central to the pathogenesis of septic acute renal failure (ARF) and a marked increase in RBF and with renal vasodilatation was associated with hyperdynamic sepsis and ARF.
Research Angiotensin II in experimental hyperdynamic sepsis
- Medicine, Biology
- 2009
Hyperdynamic sepsis was induced by the intravenous administration of live E. coli in conscious ewes after chronic instrumentation with flow probes around the aorta and the renal, mesenteric, coronary and iliac arteries and there were no major effects of Ang II on other regional blood flows.

In septic sheep, bolus resuscitation with HTS had similar systemic haemodynamic effects as NS and both increased cardiac output and mesenteric blood flow during the first hour compared with control, but only transiently increased with NS (P < 0.05), while NS transiently decreased total and renal oxygen delivery.
Effects of Renal Denervation on Regional Hemodynamics and Kidney Function in Experimental Hyperdynamic Sepsis

In experimental hyperdynamic sepsis, renal denervation was associated with greater hypotension and a loss of the initial diuresis, but no significant change in creatinine clearance.
The Systemic and Regional Hemodynamic Effects of Phenylephrine in Sheep Under Normal Conditions and During Early Hyperdynamic Sepsis

In sheep with early hyperdynamic sepsis, phenylephrine, at a dose that restored MAP, increased stroke volume and renal bloodflow while decreasing HR and coronary bloodflow but not mesenteric bloodflow.

In a large animal model of hyperdynamic sepsis, renal hyperemia was associated with preserved cortical oxygenation and perfusion, but decreasedMedullary hypoxia due to intrarenal blood flow redistribution may be one of the factors causing acute kidney injury in sepsi.

It is concluded that hypotension in the fluid resuscitated porcine E shock model is primarily the result of peripheral vasodilatation, that the vascular response to vasoconstrictors in this model is markedly attenuated following E administration, and that blood pressure elevation with norepinephrine, dopamine, and phenylephrine neither decreases blood flow to any organ nor increasesBlood flow to organs with reduced flow.

Increased resistance to venous return was the primary cause of shock in the authors' model and this can be effectively treated by giving enough intravenous fluid to elevate the mean circulatory pressure, however, if the plasma protein oncotic pressure is also lowered (saline group), organ edema results.

It is concluded that cerebral carbon dioxide reactivity and pressure autoregulation remained intact in patients with the sepsis syndrome, providing indirect evidence that at least in the early stages of the syndrome, the widespread sepsi-induced vasoparalysis does not involve the cerebral vasculature.

In monkeys receiving ketamine anesthesia, cardiac output (QT) increased with saline loading but not significantly with bacterial infusion, and bacterial infusion without saline never significantly increased QT, and shock as indicated by a depression of VO2 does not appear to occur when QT is increased.
