    AbstractBackground: Resuscitative balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is an endovascular hemostasis method used for the management of traumatic abdominal and pelvic hemorrhages. However, REBOA-associated ischemia-reperfusion injury complication limits its blocking time. We hypothesized that mild therapeutic hypothermia would relieve ischemia-reperfusion injury caused by prolonged zone 1 REBOA. Methods: Ten pigs were anesthetized, intubated, and subsequently struck with the experimental sliding-chamber ballistic gun to inflict liver damage. Animals were randomized to hypothermia (60 min of zone 1 REBOA with external cooling for 180 min, n = 5) or control (60 min of zone 1 REBOA with no external cooling, n = 5). Physiological and laboratory parameters were monitored and assessed. Distal organs were obtained for histologic analysis. Results: At 180 min, compared with the control, the hypothermia animals exhibited significantly increased pH and significantly reduced lactate, hemoglobin, and hematocrit (all P < 0.05). The change of lactate from 0 to 180 min in hypothermia animals was less than that in the control ( P = 0.02). The total bleeding in the control group was significantly less than the hypothermia ( P < 0.01). In the hypothermia group, prothrombin time at 120 and 180 min was significantly longer than that at baseline (all P < 0.05). Compared with the control, animals in the hypothermia group showed slighter pathological injury of the distal organs and significantly lower overall injury score (all P < 0.05). Conclusions: Mild therapeutic hypothermia during prolonged zone 1 REBOA offered extraordinary distal organ preservation and decreased metabolic acidosis.Copyright © 2023 The Author(s).
