    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) provides a minimally invasive alternative to resuscitative thoracotomy. The high morbidity associated with prolonged aortic occlusion has given rise to the concept of partial REBOA (pREBOA). We evaluated the novel use of the GORE Tri-Lobe Balloon Catheter (GORE) as a functional pREBOA catheter and compared it with existing REBOA and pREBOA techniques in a porcine hemorrhagic shock model. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen male Yorkshire swine were subjected to hemorrhagic shock with zone 1 aortic occlusion via standard REBOA techniques or a partial occlusion approach using a prototype pREBOA or GORE catheter. Continuous invasive monitoring was performed and laboratory values were analyzed every 30 min. RESULTS: One animal from the GORE cohort was excluded because of early demise from nonstudy factors. Survival to 120 mins was comparable between all study groups: REBOA resulting in 40% survival, pREBOA 60%, and Gore 50% (P = 0.685). No differences in lactate, base deficit, and pH between the cohorts were demonstrated at all measured time points; however, trends toward more physiologic values were appreciated in the GORE and pREBOA cohorts. Urine output was significantly improved during the course of the study in the GORE cohort (8.77 mL/kg) versus REBOA (5.46 mL/kg) and pREBOA (4.48 mL/kg) (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The GORE Tri-Lobe Balloon Catheter represents a potentially viable and commercially available alternative device for pREBOA that may achieve survivable hemorrhage control while preventing lethal reperfusion injury. Further studies should be performed after instrument refinement with larger study populations to confirm this potential.
