Objective To compare the lithium-thermal double indicator dilution (Li-thermal), indocyanine green-thermal double indicator dilution
(ICG-thermal), single thermal indicator dilution (single-thermal) and gravimetric techniques of extravascular lung water volume
(EVLW) measurement in porcine models of acute lung injury.
Design Two animal models designed to invoke a systemic inflammatory response.
Setting Laboratory study.
Subjects A total of 12 immature Deutsches Landschwein pigs.
Interventions Extravascular lung water volume was measured at four time points using Li-thermal, ICG-thermal and single-thermal techniques.
Measurements were performed using existing technology according to manufacturer’s instructions. Post-mortem gravimetric EVLW
measurements were performed by measuring wet and dry mass of lung tissue. Measurements were compared using the Bland–Altman
method. Data are presented as mean (SD).
Measurements and main results Data were collected in 12 animals and comparison between all 4 techniques was possible in 10 animals. EVLW measured by gravimetry
was 9.2 (±3.0)ml kg−1. When compared to gravimetry, both Li-thermal and ICG-thermal techniques showed minimal bias but wide limits of agreement
(LOA) [Li-thermal: bias −1.8 ml kg−1 (LOA ± 13.1); ICG-thermal bias −1.0 ml kg−1 (LOA ± 6.6)]. Comparison between the single-thermal and gravimetric methods identified both considerable bias and wide LOA
[+8.5 ml kg−1 (LOA ± 14.5)].
Conclusion Clinically significant differences between EVLW measurements obtained with the gravimetric method and three in vivo indicator
dilution techniques were identified. While none of the techniques could be considered ideal, the ICG-thermal method appeared
more reliable than either the Li-thermal or single thermal techniques. Further research is required to determine whether the
accuracy of the prototype Li-thermal technique can be improved.

Studies of potential biomarkers of acute lung injury (ALI) have provided information relating to the pathophysiology of the mechanisms of lung injury and repair. The utility of biomarkers remains solely among research tools to investigate lung injury and repair mechanisms. Because of lack of sensitivity and specificity, they cannot be used in decision making in patients with ALI or acute respiratory distress syndrome. The authors reviewed known biomarkers in context of their major biologic activity. The continued interest in identifying and studying biomarkers is relevant, as it provides information regarding the mechanisms involved in lung injury and repair and how this may be helpful in identifying and designing future therapeutic targets and strategies and possibly identifying a sensitive and specific biomarker. 相似文献

Purpose
The aim of this study is to evaluate the value of extravascular lung water (EVLW) to intrathoracic blood volume, global end-diastolic volume, or pulmonary blood volume ratios as a reflection of pulmonary permeability in nonseptic critically ill patients with or at risk for acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS).Methods
Pulmonary permeability was measured by the pulmonary leak index (PLI) for 67gallium-labeled transferrin and EVLW and blood volumes by the transpulmonary indicator dilution technique in 20 mechanically ventilated patients, before and after fluid loading, guided by changes in central venous pressure.Results
Nine (45%) patients had ALI/ARDS according to current criteria. The PLI was high (≥30.0 × 10−3/min) in 25% before and 30% after fluid loading. The EVLW was high (≥10 mL/kg) in 10% before and in none after fluid loading and did not increase with fluid loading, whereas blood volumes increased. Before fluid loading, PLI related to EVLW/blood volume ratios (minimum r = 0.48, P = .032). After fluid loading, PLI related to EVLW to pulmonary blood volume or intrathoracic blood volume ratios (minimum r = 0.46, P = .041). The relations were unaffected by fluid loading and pressure forces.Conclusions
The EVLW/blood volume ratios are determined, at least in part, by moderately increased pulmonary permeability in nonseptic critically ill patients with or at risk for ALI/ARDS, independent of fluid status and pressure forces. Normal ratios may help to exclude high permeability. 相似文献7.

Purpose
High-frequency oscillation combined with tracheal gas insufflation (HFO-TGI) improves oxygenation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). There are limited physiologic data regarding the effects of HFO-TGI on hemodynamics and pulmonary edema during ARDS. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of HFO-TGI on extravascular lung water (EVLW).Materials and methods
We conducted a prospective, randomized, crossover study. Consecutive eligible patients with ARDS received sessions of conventional mechanical ventilation with recruitment maneuvers (RMs), followed by HFO-TGI with RMs, or vice versa. Each ventilatory technique was administered for 8 hours. The order of administration was randomly assigned. Arterial/central venous blood gas analysis and measurement of hemodynamic parameters and EVLW were performed at baseline and after each 8-hour period using the single-indicator thermodilution technique.Results
Twelve patients received 32 sessions. Pao2/fraction of inspired oxygen and respiratory system compliance were higher (P < .001 for both), whereas extravascular lung water index to predicted body weight and oxygenation index were lower (P = .021 and .029, respectively) in HFO-TGI compared with conventional mechanical ventilation. There was a significant correlation between Pao2/fraction of inspired oxygen improvement and extravascular lung water index drop during HFO-TGI (Rs = − 0.452, P = .009).Conclusions
High-frequency oscillation combined with tracheal gas insufflation improves gas exchange and lung mechanics in ARDS and potentially attenuates EVLW accumulation. 相似文献8.

Method Ninty-six health SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation group, SAP-ALI group, Dahuang Fuzi decoction group, and then according to the time point of sacrifice after operation, each group was subdivided into 3,6,12,24 hour subsets ( each, n = 8). After the belly of a rat in the sham operation group was cut open, the pancreas was flipped several times,and then a stoma was made in the jejunum to form its fistula. In the SAP-ALl group,1 mL/kg sodium taurocholate was reversely injected into the pancreatobile duct to establish the model of SAP, and then the jejimum fistula was performed. The SAP-ALI model in Dahuang Fuzi decoction group was treated by injection of 10ml of Dahuang Fuzi decoctionon into the fistula respectively. Blood was collected from heart to detect serum amvlase and endotoxin (ET) levels before the rat being executed. The lung histopathologic changes, pulmonary injury scores and wet/dry weight(W/D) ratios were observed after the rats were executed. The alveolar liquid clearance rate(ALCR), total lung water content (TLW), extravascular lung water content(EVLW) and alveolar epithelial permeability (AEP) were examined in 3,6, 12,24 h after injury.Results There was continuous increase of AEP,TLW and EVLW,as well as progressive reduction of ALCR compared with sham operation group at 3,6,12,24 h after operation. Compared with SAP-ALI group, there was continuous decrease of AEP,TLW and EVLW, and elevated of ALCR at 3,6,12,24 h after operation.Conclusions Dahuang Fuzi decoction can significantly reduce alveolaur epithelial barrier and degree of lung tissue of SAP-ALI rats by inhibiting the elevation of LPS and inflammation reaction. 相似文献

Purpose To test whether inhalation of the phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor milrinone may attenuate experimental acute lung injury (ALI).
Methods In rats, ALI was induced by infusion of oleic acid (OA). After 30 min, milrinone was inhaled either as single dose, or repeatedly
in 30 min intervals. In mice, ALI was induced by intratracheal instillation of hydrochloric acid, followed by a single milrinone
inhalation.
Results Four hours after OA infusion, ALI was evident as lung inflammation, protein-rich edema and hypoxemia. A single inhalation
of milrinone attenuated the increase in lung wet-to-dry weight ratio and myeloperoxidase activity, and reduced protein concentration,
neutrophil counts and TNF-α levels in bronchoalveolar lavage. This effect was further pronounced when milrinone was repeatedly
inhaled. In mice with acid-induced ALI, milrinone attenuated hypoxemia and prevented the increase in lung myeloperoxidase
activity.
Conclusions Inhalation of aerosolized milrinone may present a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ALI. 相似文献

Objective To examine the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on extravascular lung water (EVLW), lung tissue, and lung volume.Design and setting Experimental animal study at a university research facility.Subjects Fifteen adult sheep.Interventions All animals were studied before and after saline washout-induced lung injury while ventilated with sequentially increasing PEEP (0, 7, 14, or 21 cmH2O).Measurements and results Lung volume was determined by computed tomography and EVLW by the thermal dye dilution technique. Saline washout significantly increased lung tissue volume (21±3 to 37±5 ml/kg) and EVLW (9±2 to 36±9 ml/kg). While increasing levels of PEEP reduced EVLW (30±7, 24±8, and 18±4 ml/kg), lung tissue volume remained constant. Total lung volume significantly increased (50±8 ml/kg at PEEP 0 to 77±12 ml/kg at PEEP 21). Nonaerated lung volume significantly decreased and was closely correlated with the changes in EVLW (r=0.67). In addition, a highly significant correlation was found between PEEP-induced decrease in nonaerated lung volume and decrease in transpulmonary shunt (r=0.83).Conclusions The main findings are as follows: (a) PEEP effectively decreases EVLW. (b) The decrease in EVLW is closely correlated with the PEEP-induced decrease in nonaerated lung volume, making EVLW a valuable bedside parameter indicating alveolar recruitment, similar to measurements of transpulmonary shunt. (c) As excess tissue volume remained constant, however, EVLW may not be suitable to reflect overall severity of lung diseaseThis study was supported by a grant from the Faculty of Clinical Medicine, University of Mannheim. 相似文献

Aim of the study
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has been investigated to attenuate organ injury in various experimental and clinical studies. However, results in hemorrhagic shock (HS) were controversial. We determined the effects of continuous administration of NAC on acute lung injury (ALI) and acute kidney injury (AKI) in HS model.Methods
Twenty male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. Pressure controlled HS model defined by mean arterial pressure (MAP) 40 ± 2 mmHg for 90 min followed by resuscitation and observation was used. Rats (n = 10 per group) were randomized into 2 groups with NAC or dextrose. Intravenous NAC was given continuously from 15 min after induction of HS to the end of observation period (2 h). We measured serum IL-6, nitrite/nitrate concentration. NF-κB p65 DNA binding activity, expressions of cytoplasmic phosphorylated IκB-α (p-IκB-α) and IκB-α, malondialdehyde (MDA) and histopathological injury scores in lung and kidney were also evaluated.Results
MAP did not show any difference during the study period. NAC decreased histopathologic scores in both lung and kidney. Lung and kidney MDA levels were significantly lower in the NAC group compared to control group. Serum nitrite/nitrate and IL-6 were also significantly lower in the NAC group. The levels of lung cytoplasmic p-IκB-α expression was mitigated by NAC, and NF-κB p65 DNA binding activity was also significantly decreased in the NAC group.Conclusions
Continuous infusion of NAC attenuated inflammatory response and acute lung and kidney injury after hemorrhagic shock in rats. 相似文献20.

PurposeSeveral studies have reported thromboembolic events to be common in severe COVID-19 cases. We sought to investigate the relationship between lung ultrasound (LUS) findings in hospitalized COVID-19 patients and the development of venous thromboembolic events (VTE).MethodsA total of 203 adults were included from a COVID-19 ward in this prospective multi-center study (mean age 68.6 years, 56.7% men). All patients underwent 8-zone LUS, and all ultrasound images were analyzed off-line blinded. Several LUS findings were investigated (total number of B-lines, B-line score, and LUS-scores).ResultsMedian time from admission to LUS examination was 4 days (IQR: 2, 8). The median number of B-lines was 12 (IQR: 8, 18), and 44 (21.7%) had a positive B-line score. During hospitalization, 17 patients developed VTE (4 deep-vein thrombosis, 15 pulmonary embolism), 12 following and 5 prior to LUS. In fully adjusted multivariable Cox models (excluding participants with VTE prior to LUS), all LUS parameters were significantly associated with VTE (total number of B-lines: HR = 1.14, 95% CI (1.03, 1.26) per 1 B-line increase), positive B-line score: HR = 9.79, 95% CI (1.87, 51.35), and LUS-score: HR = 1.51, 95% CI (1.10, 2.07), per 1-point increase). The B-line score and LUS-score remained significantly associated with VTE in sensitivity analyses.ConclusionIn hospitalized COVID-19 patients, pathological LUS findings were common, and the total number of B-lines, B-line score, and LUS-score were all associated with VTE. These findings indicate that the LUS examination may be useful in risk stratification and the clinical management of COVID-19. These findings should be considered hypothesis generating.Clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT04377035相似文献
