Validation of Lower Body Negative Pressure (LBNP) Model of Human Hemorrhage in Trauma Patients
Completed
Conditions studied: Physical Trauma
In brief
Lower body negative pressure (LBNP) is a laboratory model used to study hemorrhage in humans. The investigators hypothesize that the physiologic changes that occur with application of LBNP mimic those observed in bleeding and hemodynamically unstable trauma patients, and that LBNP is a truly valid model of human hemorrhage.
