LowRateIV
Description
This scenario provides a qualitative comparison of human burn patients using data from swine experiments.
Paradigm 2: IV Lactated Ringers (LR) guided by urinary output according to maintain a target urine output of 1-1.5 mL/kg.
Protocol: Female Yorkshire swine were acclimated to the facility for 5 days prior to experimental use. Animals were fasted but allowed water ad libitum 12 hours prior to the study. Animals were monitored for 24 hours postinjury, with their vitals recorded every 15 minutes, and blood samples collected at hours 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24.

Segment Validation
Segment 1
Animals were sedated using ketamine 15 to 30 mg/kg and xylazine 1 to 4 mg/kg IM. Animals were endotracheally intubated and ventilated. Ventilator setting were 1 to 3 l/min of oxygen, 7 to 15 ml/kg tidal volume, and 10 to 20 bpm, to maintain end-tidal CO2 of 40 +/- 5 mm Hg General anesthesia was maintained using a combination of propofol (200 mcg/min/kg IV), ketamine (10-30 mg/hr/kg IV), vecuronium (0.15-1 mg/hr/kg IV), and fentanyl (3-4 ug/hr/kg IV) Animals were then subjected to a 40% TBSA burn with an aluminum branding iron heated to 150 degC kept in contact with the skin for 10 seconds producing a full-thickness burn Animals received IV Lactated Ringer’s solution at a rate guided by urinary output resulting in approximately 10 ml/kg/h. Run for 4 hrs.
