To determine the effect of albumin administration on lung injury in traumatic/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) rats. Methods: Forty-eight adult Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups randomly ( n = 16 in each group) : Group A, Group B, Group C. In Group A, rats underwent laparotomy without shock. In Group B, rats undergoing T/HS were resuscitated with their blood plus lactated Ringer's (twice the volume of shed blood ). In Group C, rats undergoing T/HS were resuscitated with their shed blood plus additional 3 ml of 5% human albumin. The expression of polymorphonuclear neutrophils CD18/CD11b in jugular vein blood was evaluated. The main lung injury indexes (the activity of myeloperoxidase and lung injury score) were measured. Results: Significant differences of the expression of CD18/11b and the severity degree of lung injury were found between the three groups. (P〈0.05). The expression of CD18/CD11b and the main lung injury indexes in Group B and Goup C incresed significantly compared with those in Group A (P 〈0.05). At the same time, the expression of CD18/CD11b and the main lung injury indexes in Group C decreased dramatically, compared with those in Group B ( P 〈0.05 ). Conclusions : The infusion of albumin during resuscitation period can protect lungs from injury and decrease the expression of CD18/CD11b in T/HS rats.展开更多
