Abstract
Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is a leading contributor to preventable mortality in severely injured patients. Understanding the molecular drivers of TIC is an essential step in identifying novel therapeutics to reduce morbidity and mortality. This study investigated multiomics and viscoelastic responses to polytrauma using our novel swine model and compared these findings with severely injured patients. Molecular signatures of TIC were significantly associated with perturbed coagulation and inflammation systems as well as extensive hemolysis. These results were consistent with patterns observed in trauma patients who had multisystem injuries. Here, intervention using resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta following polytrauma in our swine model revealed distinct multiomics alterations as a function of placement location. Aortic balloon placement in zone-1 worsened ischemic damage and mitochondrial dysfunction, patterns that continued throughout the monitored time course. While placement in zone-III showed a beneficial effect on TIC, it showed an improvement in effective coagulation. Taken together, this study highlights the translational relevance of our polytrauma swine model for investigating therapeutic interventions to correct TIC in patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major trauma often results in significant bleeding and coagulopathy, posing a substantial clinical burden. To understand the underlying pathophysiology and to refine clinical strategies to overcome coagulopathy, preclinical large animal models are often used. This review scrutinizes the clinical relevance of large animal models in hemostasis research, emphasizing challenges in translating findings into clinical therapies. METHODS We conducted a thorough search of PubMed and EMBASE databases from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2022. We used specific keywords and inclusion/exclusion criteria centered on large animal models. RESULTS Our review analyzed 84 pertinent articles, including four animal species: pigs, sheep, dogs, and nonhuman primates (NHPs). Eighty-five percent of the studies predominantly utilized porcine models. Meanwhile, sheep and dogs were less represented, making up only 2.5% of the total studies. Models with NHP were 10%. The most frequently used trauma models involved a combination of liver injury and femur fractures (eight studies), arterial hemorrhage (seven studies), and a combination of hemodilution and liver injury (seven studies). A wide array of coagulation parameters were employed to assess the efficacy of interventions in hemostasis and bleeding control. CONCLUSIONS Recognizing the diverse strengths and weaknesses of large animal models is critical for trauma and hemorrhage research. Each model is unique and should be chosen based on how well it aligns with the specific scientific objectives of the study. By strategically considering each model's advantages and limitations, we can enhance our understanding of trauma and hemorrhage pathophysiology and further advance the development of effective treatments.

Abstract
Oxygenation is a crucial indicator of tissue viability and function. Oxygen tension ([Formula: see text]), i.e. the amount of molecular oxygen present in the tissue is a direct result of supply (perfusion) and consumption. Thus, measurement of [Formula: see text] is an effective method to monitor tissue viability. However, tissue oximetry sensors commonly used in clinical practice instead rely on measuring oxygen saturation ([Formula: see text]), largely due to the lack of reliable, affordable [Formula: see text] sensing solutions. To address this issue we present a proof-of-concept design and validation of a low-cost, lifetime-based oxygen sensing fiber. The sensor consists of readily-available off-the shelf components such as a microcontroller, a light-emitting diode (LED), an avalanche photodiode (APD), a temperature sensor, as well as a bright in-house developed porphyrin molecule. The device was calibrated using a benchtop setup and evaluated in three in vivo animal models. Our findings show that the new device design in combination with the bright porphyrin has the potential to be a useful and accurate tool for measuring [Formula: see text] in tissue, while also highlighting some of the limitations and challenges of oxygen measurements in this context.

Abstract
In recent decades, the pig has attracted considerable attention as an important intermediary model animal in translational biobehavioral research due to major similarities between pig and human neuroanatomy, physiology, and behavior. As a result, there is growing interest in using pigs to model many human neurological conditions and injuries. Pigs are highly intelligent and are capable of performing a wide range of behaviors, which can provide valuable insight into the effects of various neurological disease states. One area in which the pig has emerged as a particularly relevant model species is in the realm of neurotrauma research. Indeed, the number of investigators developing injury models and assessing treatment options in pigs is ever-expanding. In this review, we examine the use of pigs for cognitive and behavioral research as well as some commonly used physiological assessment methods. We also discuss the current usage of pigs as a model for the study of traumatic brain injury. We conclude that the pig is a valuable animal species for studying cognition and the physiological effect of disease, and it has the potential to contribute to the development of new treatments and therapies for human neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
Neurocritical care significantly impacts outcomes after moderate-to-severe acquired brain injury, but it is rarely applied in preclinical studies. We created a comprehensive neurointensive care unit (neuroICU) for use in swine to account for the influence of neurocritical care, collect clinically relevant monitoring data, and create a paradigm that is capable of validating therapeutics/diagnostics in the unique neurocritical care space. Our multidisciplinary team of neuroscientists, neurointensivists, and veterinarians adapted/optimized the clinical neuroICU (e.g., multimodal neuromonitoring) and critical care pathways (e.g., managing cerebral perfusion pressure with sedation, ventilation, and hypertonic saline) for use in swine. Moreover, this neurocritical care paradigm enabled the first demonstration of an extended preclinical study period for moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury with coma beyond 8 h. There are many similarities with humans that make swine an ideal model species for brain injury studies, including a large brain mass, gyrencephalic cortex, high white matter volume, and topography of basal cisterns, amongst other critical factors. Here we describe the neurocritical care techniques we developed and the medical management of swine following subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury with coma. Incorporating neurocritical care in swine studies will reduce the translational gap for therapeutics and diagnostics specifically tailored for moderate-to-severe acquired brain injury.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tissue injury (TI) and hemorrhagic shock (HS) are the major contributors to trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC). However, the individual contributions of these insults are difficult to discern clinically because they typically coexist. TI has been reported to release procoagulants, while HS has been associated with bleeding. We developed a large animal model to isolate TI and HS and characterize their individual mechanistic pathways. We hypothesized that while TI and HS are both drivers of TIC, they provoke different pathways; specifically, TI reduces time to clotting, whereas, HS decreases clot strength stimulates hyperfibrinolysis. METHODS After induction of general anesthesia, 50 kg male, Yorkshire swine underwent isolated TI (bilateral muscle cutdown of quadriceps, bilateral femur fractures) or isolated HS (controlled bleeding to a base excess target of - 5 mmol/l) and observed for 240 min. Thrombelastography (TEG), calcium levels, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), protein C, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1/tissue-type plasminogen activator complex (PAI-1-tPA) were analyzed at pre-selected timepoints. Linear mixed models for repeated measures were used to compare results throughout the model. RESULTS TI resulted in elevated histone release which peaked at 120 min (p = 0.02), and this was associated with reduced time to clot formation (R time) by 240 min (p = 0.006). HS decreased clot strength at time 30 min (p = 0.003), with a significant decline in calcium (p = 0.001). At study completion, HS animals had elevated PAI-1 (p = 0.01) and PAI-1-tPA (p = 0.04), showing a trend toward hyperfibrinolysis, while TI animals had suppressed fibrinolysis. Protein C, TAFI and skeletal myosin were not different among the groups. CONCLUSION Isolated injury in animal models can help elucidate the mechanistic pathways leading to TIC. Our results suggest that isolated TI leads to early histone release and a hypercoagulable state, with suppressed fibrinolysis. In contrast, HS promotes poor clot strength and hyperfibrinolysis resulting in hypocoagulability.

Zone 1 REBOA in a combat DCBI swine model does not worsen brain injury. Surgery 2022; 172:751-758. [PMID: 35690490 PMCID: PMC9675949 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2022.04.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 04/01/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Zone 1 resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta has been recommended for refractory shock after a dismounted complex blast injury for the austere combat scenario. While resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta should enhance coronary perfusion, there is a potential risk of secondary brain injury due to loss of cerebral autoregulation. We developed a combat casualty relevant dismounted complex blast injury swine model to evaluate the effects of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta zone I on intracranial pressure and cerebral edema. We hypothesized that zone 1 aortic occlusion with resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta would increase mean arterial pressure transmitted in excessive intracranial pressure, thereby worsening brain injury. METHODS 50 kg male Yorkshire swine were subjected to a combination dismounted complex blast injury model consisting of blast traumatic brain injury (50 psi, ARA Mobile Shock Laboratory), tissue injury (bilateral femur fractures), and hemorrhagic shock (controlled bleeding to a base deficit goal of 10 mEq/L). During the shock phase, pigs were randomized to no aortic occlusion (n = 8) or to 30 minutes of zone 1 resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (zone 1 aortic occlusion group, n = 6). After shock, pigs in both groups received a modified Tactical Combat Casualty Care-based resuscitation and were monitored for an additional 240 minutes until euthanasia/death for a total of 6 hours. Intracranial pressure was monitored throughout, and brains were harvested for water content. Linear mixed models for repeated measures were used to compare mean arterial pressure and intracranial pressure between zone 1 aortic occlusion and no aortic occlusion groups. RESULTS After dismounted complex blast injury, the zone 1 group had a significantly higher mean arterial pressure during hemorrhagic shock compared to the control group (41.2 mm Hg vs 16.7 mm Hg, P = .002). During balloon occlusion, intracranial pressure was not significantly elevated in the zone 1 aortic occlusion group vs control, but intracranial pressure was significantly lower in the zone 1 group at the end of the observation period. In addition, the zone 1 aortic occlusion group did not have increased brain water content (zone 1 aortic occlusion: 3.95 ± 0.1g vs no aortic occlusion: 3.95 ± 0.3 g, P = .87). Troponin levels significantly increased in the no aortic occlusion group but did not in the zone 1 aortic occlusion group. CONCLUSION Zone 1 aortic occlusion using resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta in a large animal dismounted complex blast injury model improved proximal mean arterial pressure while not significantly increasing intracranial pressure during balloon inflation. Observation up to 240 minutes postresuscitation did not show clinical signs of worsening brain injury or cardiac injury. These data suggest that in a dismounted complex blast injury swine model, resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta in zone 1 may provide neuro- and cardioprotection in the setting of blast traumatic brain injury. However, longer monitoring periods may be needed to confirm that the neuroprotection is lasting.
