Pulmonary vascular permeability index should not be called extravascular lung water pulmonary blood volume ratio
evaluated the performance accuracy of three extra vascular lung water (EVLW) ratios in patients with shock at risk for or with acute lung injury (ALI). Th ey indexed EVLW to actual body weight (ABW), predicted body weight (PBW) and pulmonary blood volume (PBV), and confi rmed that all EVLW ratios were higher in patients with ALI and in non-survivors and correlated with respiratory parameters. A...
متن کاملExtravascular lung water and the pulmonary vascular permeability index may improve the definition of ARDS
The recent Berlin definition has made some improvements in the older definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), although the concepts and components of the definition remained largely unchanged. In an effort to improve both predictive and face validity, the Berlin panel has examined a number of additional measures that may reflect increased pulmonary vascular permeability, includ...
متن کاملOn defining the pulmonary extravascular water volume.
To evaluate the effect of diffusion on the pulmonary extravascular water volume determined from indicator dilution studies, simultaneous comparisons of the pulmonary extravascular distribution volumes of tritiated water (THO) and of three lipid soluble substances with higher molecular weights were made. In 21 studies on pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs, the distribution volume of antipyrine (AP)...
متن کاملExtravascular lung water and pulmonary vascular permeability index may inadvertently delay the identification of acute respiratory distress syndrome
colleagues [1] reported a multicenter cohort study that showed pulmonary vascular permeability index (PVPI) to be a practical diagnostic parameter to recognize acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ ARDS) in pulmonary edema. Th eir study deserves to be appreciated. Th e transpulmonary thermodilution technique allows an accurate bedside estimation of increased pulmonary vasc...
متن کاملAcute effects of increase in pulmonary vascular distending pressures on pulmonary blood volume and pulmonary extravascular fluid volume in man.
The acute hemodynamic effects of supine leg exercise or atrial pacing were studied in 114 patients undergoing right and either transseptal (87 cases) or retrograde (27 cases) left heart catheterization. Seventy-one patients - 15 with coronary artery disease, 22 with aortic valve disease, and 34 with mitral valve disease - performed exercise on a bicylce ergometer. Forty-three patients, of whom ...
