Abstract

          Non-compressible torso hemorrhage such as thorax, abdomen or pelvis is the leading cause of death in trauma patients. Previously, resuscitative thoracotomy provided 8.5% of survival rate which is not satisfactory and recommended in only cardiac arrested patient. It is the origin of the new life-saving procedure called “Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the Aorta – REBOA”. The procedure is to insert the balloon into the aorta via common femoral artery then inflate the balloon to occlusion of the aorta. The result is to slow down the hemorrhage in abdomen or pelvis and increase blood flow to heart and the organs above the occlusion level. Then move the patient to surgery for stop bleeding in abdomen or pelvis. Thus, this procedure will increase survival rate in trauma patients.
