Nitric Oxide Administration Using an Oxygen Hood: A Pilot Trial
BACKGROUND We have shown earlier that inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) administered by oxygen hood reduces pulmonary hypertension in an animal model (J Perinatol 2002; 22:50-6). Our objective in this study was to determine feasibility of iNO by oxygen hood in neonates with elevated alveolar-arterial oxygen gradients (A-aDO(2)). METHODS/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Masked randomized controlled pilot trial. In...
متن کاملNitric oxide, oxygen, and prostacyclin in children with pulmonary hypertension.
OBJECTIVE To test the vasodilatory response of the pulmonary vascular bed in children with pulmonary hypertension. DESIGN Prospective dose response study in which the effects of inhaled nitric oxide (NO) are compared with those of oxygen and intravenous prostacyclin. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS The vasodilator test was performed in 20 patients in whom mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAPm) wa...
متن کاملNitric oxide and pulmonary hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension is a serious complication of a number of lung and heart diseases that is characterized by peripheral vascular structural remodeling and loss of vascular tone. Nitric oxide can modulate vascular injury and interrupt elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance selectively; however, it can also produce cytotoxic oxygen radicals and exert cytotoxic and antiplatelet effects. Th...
متن کاملEvaluation of adherence to oxygen therapy standards before, during and after oxygen hood administration
Background and Purpose: Oxygen therapy is one of the common treatments for neonates with cardiopulmonary disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate adherence to oxygen therapy standards by nurses before, during and after using oxygen hood. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 250 cases of nursing care were evaluated before, during and after administration of oxygen hood therapy in pre...
متن کاملSimultaneous administration of inhaled nitric oxide in two children with pulmonary hypertension.
We administered inhaled nitric oxide (NO) in two children with postoperative pulmonary hypertension after surgical repair of congenital heart diseases. Different concentrations of NO, varying from 0.1 to 10.0 ppm, were administered simultaneously to these patients using the same chemiluminescence analyzer (CLD 700 AL, Eco Physic; Diirnten, Switzerland) for the measurement of NO and nitrous oxid...
