Cardiac injury after multiple trauma assessed by cardiac specific serum markers. (A) Time course of appearance heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) after multiple trauma and damage control treatment (DCO, grey bars) or early total care treatment (ETC, black bars) or sham procedure (white bars) in pigs. (B) Time course of cardiac specific troponin I in serum after multiple trauma and damage control treatment (DCO, grey bars) or early total care treatment (ETC, black bars) or sham procedure (white bars). p < 0.05; *differences were significant to sham procedure, #differences were significant to baseline. For all frames n = 6 for each bar. H.E. staining of left ventricle in sham (left), after multiple trauma and DCO (middle) or ETC (right) treatment, respectively (frame C).
