Table 1. Description of selected studies on physiologic effects.

MAP: mean arterial pressure; p-REBOA: partial resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta; c-REBOA: complete resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta

Study Year Number of patients Conclusion
Russo et al. [26] 2016 15 swine p-REBOA provided a physiologic MAP and less ischemic changes
Russo et al. [27] 2016 15 swine p-REBOA maintained a physiologic carotid blood flow and MAP compared to c-REBOA which produced supraphysiologic changes
Forte et al. [28] 2019 25 swine p-REBOA provided effective hemorrhage control, limited ischemic burden, and a flow rate of 0.5 L/min provided 100% survival rate
Matsumura et al. [29] 2017 142 adult humans 78 patients received p-REBOA; there was better hemodynamic response, achievement of stability, and longer occlusion time with partial vs. full occlusion
