Hydralazine, L-norepinephrine, and hydrocortisone in the treatment of haemorrhagic shock.

In 1947 and again in 1954 Jacob Fine and his associates emphasized that in severe haemorrhagic shock replacement of the blood lost was not enough to guarantee a survival of the experimental animal 9,36,89. He pointed out that factors come into play which result from haemorrhage but cannot be corrected by transfusion. This concept was reiterated by Moyer who made the point that death and morbidity in severe hypovolemic shock is undoubtedly due to a lack of perfusion of vital organs but that simple replacement of fluids is not enough to renew this flow.
