  • Title: Monitoring resuscitation of primates from hemorrhagic and septic shock.
    Author: Trunkey D, Holcroft J, Carpenter MA.
    Journal: JACEP; 1976 Apr; 5(4):249-52. PubMed ID: 6816.
    Abstract:
    Monitoring data in 16 primates subjected to septic or hemorrhagic shock and resuscitated with various solutions is presented. From a paractical standpoint, central venous pressure and urine output appear to be the best indices to use in the emergency department for resuscitation of the shock victim. The sophisticated measurements such as cardiac output, thermodye volumes, pulmonary artery wedge pressure and oxygen consumption should be reserved for the individual with depressed cardiovascular reserves and who needs "fine tuning" of his volume status.
