Comparison of histological appearance of kidneys in anesthetized, intubated, mechanically ventilated swine after critical care events and 6-h follow. Anesthetized mechanically ventilated swine with a mild hemorrhage (12% estimated blood volume) show only mild signs of glomerular and tubular damage (A) (no REBOA deployed). In animals that underwent 120 min of partial REBOA with target mean arterial pressure below the balloon of 45–60 mmHg, (B) more pronounced evidence of injury is present but not as severe as in an animal after 50% hemorrhage and cardiac arrest treated with 15 min REBOA and CPR (C) manifesting the most severe hemorrhage, congestion and damage to proximal and distal tubular structures and epithelium
