Background : Previous preclinical studies have demonstrated a pathobiome after traumatic injury; however, the impact of postinjury sepsis on gut epithelial permeability and bacterial translocation remains unknown. We hypothesized that polytrauma with postinjury pneumonia would result in impaired gut permeability leading to specific blood microbiome arrays. Methods : Male and proestrus female Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to either polytrauma (PT), PT plus 2-hours daily chronic restraint stress (PT/CS), PT with postinjury day 1 inoculation with pseudomonas pneumonia (PT + PNA), PT/CS + PNA, or naive controls. ⋯ Females PT/CS + PNA had a significant abundance of Staphylococcus at day 2 and Streptococcus at day 7 in the blood biome compared to male counterparts ( P < 0.05). Conclusion : Multicompartmental trauma with postinjury pneumonia results in increased intestinal permeability and bacteremia with a unique blood biome, with sexual dimorphisms evident in the blood biome composition. These findings suggest that postinjury sepsis has clinical significance and could influence outcomes after severe trauma and critical illness.
