Direct Peritoneal Resuscitation Effects in the Damage Control Patient
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Galactose and Standard surgical methods for Traumatic Injury. Completed, enrolled 7 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to find if direct peritoneal resuscitation helps blood flow through important organs in a person's body after they have had a traumatic injury with massive blood loss. Sometimes after severe injuries requiring operation, surgeons cannot close the muscles and skin of a patient's belly, because of swelling. This study will also try to find if direct peritoneal resuscitation decreases tissue swelling and allows for quicker closure of of a patient's belly.
