Hemorrhagic shock (HS) after tissue trauma increases the complication and mortality rate of polytrauma (PT) patients. Although several murine trauma models have been introduced, there is a lack of knowledge about the exact impact of an additional HS. We hypothesized that HS significantly contributes to organ injury, which can be reliably monitored by detection of specific organ damage markers. Therefore we established a novel clinically relevant PT plus HS model in C57BL/6 mice which were randomly assigned to control, HS, PT, or PT+ HS procedure (n= 8 per group). For induction of PT, anesthetized animals received a blunt chest trauma, head injury, femur fracture, and soft tissue injury. HS was induced by pressure-controlled blood drawing (mean arterial blood pressure of 30 mmHg for 60 min) and mice then resuscitated with ionosterile (4× volume drawn), monitored, and killed for blood and organ harvesting 4 h after injury. After HS and resuscitation, PT+ HS mice required earlier and overall more catecholamine support than HS animals to keep their mean arterial blood pressure. HS significantly contributed to the systemic release of interleukin-6 and high mobility group box 1 protein. Furthermore, the histological lung injury score, pulmonary edema, neutrophil influx, and plasma clara cell protein 16 were all significantly enhanced in PT animals in the presence of an additional HS. Although early morphological changes were minor, HS also contributed functionally to remote acute kidney injury but not to early liver damage. Moreover, PT-induced systemic endothelial injury, as determined by plasma syndecan-1 levels, was significantly aggravated by an additional HS. These results indicate that HS adds to the systemic inflammatory reaction early after PT. Within hours after PT, HS seems to aggravate pulmonary damage and to worsen renal and endothelial function which might overall contribute to the development of early multiple organ dysfunction.
