Introduction: Previous studies have suggested that a ketamine-based total intravenous anesthetic (TIVA) regimen is superior to an inhaled anesthetic by producing fewer adverse effects. While the use of TIVA has been documented in elective operations, there is limited data on its performance during traumatic shock. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the differential effects of an inhalational anesthetic with a TIVA regimen in the setting of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock secondary to an induced Grade V liver injury.
