  22. UNCLASSIFIED//FOUO Medical Advancements &Lessons Learned From the last 10 years of Patient Movement UNCLASSIFIED//FOUO

  23. Medical Advancements &Lessons Learned • Resuscitation with blood products • LIFO Blood Usage • Damage Control Surgery • Burn Management • Ventilatory Control with Decreased Tidal Volume • Massive Blood Transfusion Triggers • Epidurals & Nerve Blocks • Tourniquets • No Steroids in Blunt Spinal / Head Trauma

  24. Blood Component Therapy • Prior typical "resuscitation protocol" = lots of LR or NS then 1-2 units of blood  (3:1) • This practice contributed to the lethal triad of coagulopathy, hypothermia & acidosis • Now, high suspicion patient is bleeding = proceed directly to blood products. • Repine TB, Perkins JG, Kauvar DS, Blackborne L. The use of fresh whole blood in massive transfusion. J Trauma. 2006;60:S59-S69.  • Spinella PC, Perkins JG, Grathwohl JG, Beekley AC, Holcomb JG. Warm fresh whole blood is independently associated with improved survival for patients with combat-related traumatic injuries. J Trauma. 2009;66:S69-S76.

  25. Blood Tx: LIFONew blood over old blood • Previously, the oldest blood in the theater was given first for transfusions • should be used before it goes bad. • Fresh blood has been shown to be superior • complications of transfusion with "older" units of PRBCs • "storage lesion": increase pro-inflammatory factors, acidosis, increased free hemoglobin, and decreased RBC deformability, 2,3 DPG & ATP • The people most likely to suffer the consequences of complications of "older" units of blood are those requiring a higher dose • In patients requiring massive transfusion , effort made to transfuse fresh units of PRBCs • Preferably < 14 days old, but the freshest available nonetheless • Now, LAST IN, FIRST OUT (LIFO) Blood Policy • Donation to availability in theater averaging 7 days • SpinellaPC, Perkins JG, et al. Warm fresh whole blood is independently associated with improved survival for patients with combat-related traumatic injuries. J Trauma. 2009;66:S69-76.

  26. Damage Control Surgery • We now transport patients with “unfinished surgeries” - open abdomens • bleeding stopped via clamping and/or packing. • They are moved to higher levels for more definitive care • Further damage control surgeries done • “Final” closure surgery • Eastridge BJ, Mabry RL, Seguin P, Cantrell J, Tops T, Uribe P, Mallett O, Zubko T, Oetjen-Gerdes L, Rasmussen T, Butler FK, Kotwal RS, Holcomb JB, Wade C, Champion H, Lawnick M, Moores L and Blackbourne LH. Death on the battlefield (2001-2011): Implications for the future of combat casualty care. J Trauma. 2012;73:S431-S437,

  27. Burn Management • Rule of 10's and 6 ml/kg/%BSA burned in thermal injury burn management • Basically, now we don’t pour in the fluid. • Start with an initial amount • Then adjust it up or down up to 25% per hour (not more!) • Result = far less incidents of abdominal compartment syndrome • CCATT transported patients with burns up to 98% and they have survived. • Ennis JL, Chung KK, Renz EM, Barillo DJ, Albrecht MC, Jones JA, Blackbourne LH, Cancio LC, Eastridge BJ, Flaherty SF, Dorlac WC, Kelleher KS, Wade CE, Wolf SE, Jenkins DH, Holcomb JB. Joint Theater Trauma System implementation of burn resuscitation guidelines improves outcomes in severely burned military casualties. J Trauma. 2008;64(2):S146-51; discussion 151-2. • Markell KW, Renz EM, White CE, Albrecht ME, Blackbourne LH, Park MS, Barillo DA, Chung KK, Kozar RA, Minei JP, Cohn SM, Herndon DN, Cancio LC, Holcomb JB,Wolf SE. Abdominal complications after severe burns. J Am Coll Surg. 2009;208(5):940-7; discussion 947-9.

  28. Vents: Decreased TV • Lung protective strategies in ARDS / ICU / Difficult to Ventilate pts • Tidal Volume: 4-6 cc/Kg • Not 10-12 cc/Kg, as prior • Ideal BW • Increase PEEP and/or FiO2 • Essentially ARDSNet • Used very often by US CCATT

  29. Other Advances 7.  Massive transfusion triggers • Higher quantities of blood up front • McLaughlin DF, Niles SE, Salinas J, et al. A predictive model for massive transfusion in combat casualty patients. J Trauma.2008;64:S57-63. 6.  PCA, Epidural and nerve blocks • We fly these all the time now • Waiver x 10yrs, Official since 2012 • Mepivacaine 250 vs 400ml IV bags • Katz J, Cohen L, Schmid R, et al. Postoperative Morphine Use and hyperalgesia are Reduced by Preoperative but not Intraoperative Epidural Anagesia: Implications for Preemptive Analgesia and the Prevention of Central Sensitization. Anesthesiology. 2003;98:1449-1460.

  30. Lessons Learned (con’t) 8.  Re-emergence of tourniquets 9.  No steroids in blunt spinal cord or TBI • No proven benefit • Worsen outcomes in patients with severe head injury • Frequent associated open or contaminated wounds of battle casualties further complicate steroid administration
