Relative changes to baseline in arteriolar and venular hemodynamics for PEG-Alb, HSA10 and HSA5. Broken line represents baseline level. †, P < 0.05 and ‡, P < 0.10, among study groups; and §, P<0.05, between 60 min and 90 min after resuscitation. Diameters (μm, mean ± SD) for each animal group at baseline were as follows: PEG-Alb (arterioles (A): 59.1 ± 9.4, n = 42; venules (V): 59.9 ± 8.0, n = 44); HSA10 (A: 58.1 ± 9.4, n = 44; V: 56.8 ± 9.6, n = 47); HSA5 (A: 57.9 ± 8.6, n = 43, V: 58.6 ± 8.9, n = 44). n = number of vessels studied. RBC velocities (mm/s, mean ± SD) for each animal group at baseline were as follows: PEG-Alb (A: 4.4 ± 1.1, V: 2.4 ± 0.8); HSA10 (A: 4.4 ± 0.9; V: 2.4 ± 0.8); HSA5 (A: 4.5 ± 0.8; V: 2.6 ± 0.6). Calculated flows (nl/s, mean ± SD) for each animal group at baseline were as follows: Baseline: PEG-Alb (A: 11.5 ± 3.6; V: 6.7 ± 2.3); HSA10 (A: 11.5 ± 3.1; V: 6.6 ± 2.0); HSA5 (A: 11.0 ± 2.5; V: 6.5 ± 2.1).
