  • Title: Damage Control Resuscitation for Catastrophic Bleeding.
    Author: Andreason CL, Pohlman TH.
    Journal: Oral Maxillofac Surg Clin North Am; 2016 Nov; 28(4):553-568. PubMed ID: 27745621.
    Abstract:
    The timely recognition of shock secondary to hemorrhage from severe facial trauma or as a complication of complex oral and maxillofacial surgery presents formidable challenges. Specific hemostatic disorders are induced by hemorrhage and several extreme homeostatic imbalances may appear during or after resuscitation. Damage control resuscitation has evolved from massive transfusion to a more complex therapeutic paradigm that includes hemodynamic resuscitation, hemostatic resuscitation, and homeostatic resuscitation. Definitive control of bleeding is the principal objective of any comprehensive resuscitation scheme for hemorrhagic shock.
