    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Space missions may require intravenous fluid resuscitation. Variable acceleration significantly altered infusion flow rates and times, demonstrating that pressure bag augmentation can achieve target infusion rates in reduced gravity.

    Area of Science:

    • Space Medicine
    • Physiology
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Critical care for space exploration missions may necessitate intravenous (IV) fluid resuscitation.
    • Resource limitations in space may restrict the use of standard Earth-based infusion technologies.
    • Investigating the impact of variable acceleration on IV fluid infusion rates is crucial for mission planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the effect of variable acceleration on intravenous fluid infusion rates using simple resuscitation supplies.
    • To determine if standard fluid resuscitation protocols can be maintained in simulated reduced gravity environments.
    • To provide data for refining fluid resuscitation protocols for space exploration.

    Main Methods:

    • Infusions of water and a blood analog (40% glycerol) were conducted using IV bags with pressure bag augmentation (0, 150, 300 mmHg).
    • Simulated gravitational accelerations included 1 G, Martian G, lunar G, and 0 G by adjusting the solution bag's height.
    • Flow rates were measured using an in-line flow probe with 14- or 20-gauge angiocaths.

    Main Results:

    • Temporal flow rate data exhibited a one-phase exponential decay across all conditions.
    • At 300 mmHg, maximum infusion rates for water ranged from 92-222 mL/min, and for the blood analog, from 21-49 mL/min.
    • Reduced gravity conditions significantly increased infusion times compared to 1 G for both solutions.

    Conclusions:

    • Reduced acceleration significantly impacts fluid resuscitation flow rates and infusion durations.
    • Infusion pressure bag augmentation alone can achieve target resuscitation rates (e.g., 20-30 mL/min) in simulated reduced gravity.
    • This study provides essential data for adapting and optimizing IV fluid resuscitation protocols for long-duration space missions.
