Key parameters of shock before and after decompressive laparotomy. a Vital parameters (medium blood pressure and pulse) prior to the cardiopulmonary resuscitation and decompressive laparotomy. b The peak airway pressure took a critical rise shortly after starting the massive transfusion of packed red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma. c The course of the hemoglobin level and partial pressure of carbon dioxide are reversed shortly after the decompressive laparotomy.
