Abstract

Severely destructive disasters can often lead to heavy casualties. Large arterial injury in disasters, particularly, often results in high mortality and morbidity. Although minimally invasive intervention has achieved positive effects in diagnosing and treating vascular injuries, it is still unavailable at the disaster area of any country due to lack of on-spot catheterization labs. This study aimed to test the feasibility of adopting interventional techniques to treat haemorrhage of large arterial injuries in remote and austere wild environments after severely destructive disasters, by using a new mobile intervention suite we developed--the mobile minimally invasive interventional shelter (MIS). Large animal models of aortic and femoral arterial injuries were established using a newly developed medium vehicle-mounted digital subtraction angiography (DSA) machine in MIS. The endovascular stent-graft exclusion and balloon occlusion combined with surgical hemostasis were performed respectively following the protocols for rapid interventional therapy. The treatment capacity of the shelter was evaluated based on its stability, surgery duration and the clinical results. The stability of the medical devices in MIS directly relates to...Continue Reading
