hypotensive resuscitation

Hypotensive resuscitation is a medical strategy used to treat severe bleeding, especially in trauma patients. Instead of trying to quickly restore full blood volume, doctors aim to maintain a lower-than-normal blood pressure until bleeding is controlled. This approach helps prevent further blood loss and reduces the risk of dislodging blood clots that are forming to stop the bleeding. The goal is to balance enough blood flow to vital organs without increasing the pressure that might worsen bleeding, ultimately improving the patient’s chances of recovery.
