The present intention provides superoxygenating compositions that comprise hemoglobin and guanosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP) generating compounds, and methods for treatment of diseases or medical conditions which utilize the superoxygenating compositions as biocolloids, i.e. hemodiluents, blood substitutes, plasma expanders, or resuscitative fluids. The cardiac output-increasing compositions comprise a simple mixture of hemoglobin and the cyclic GMP generating compounds or hemoglobin physically or chemically coupled to the cyclic GMP generating compounds. The invention also provides time-controlled superoxygenating compositions of hemoglobin and cyclic GMP generating compounds that would be used for treatment of specific diseases or medical conditions requiring time-dependent use of biocolloids, i.e. hemodiluents, blood substitutes, plasma expanders, or resuscitative fluids.
A hemoglobin colloid composition for use in hemodilution, blood substitution, plasma expansion or fluid resuscitation consisting of a hemoglobin-based material and a guanosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP) generating compound, said hemoglobin colloid composition used for the intended purpose of producing oxygen delivery, in vivo, that is superior to that obtained with hemoglobin-based material alone, said hemoglobin colloid composition being substantially free of adverse hemodynamic effects, said hemoglobin colloid composition selectively affecting afterload relative to preload, said hemoglobin colloid composition intentionally increasing stroke volume and cardiac output with essentially no effect on heart rate.
A method for treatment of diseases or medical conditions requiring a hemodiluent, blood substitute, plasma expander, or resuscitative fluid consisting of steps:
