Postperfusion lung syndrome: physiopathology and therapeutic options
Postperfusion lung syndrome is rare but can be lethal. The underlying mechanism remains uncertain but triggering inflammatory cascades have become an accepted etiology. A better understanding of the pathophysiology and the roles of inflammatory mediators in the development of the syndrome is imperative in the determination of therapeutic options and promotion of patients' prognosis and survival...
متن کاملThe body hematocrit/venous hematocrit ratio and the "splenic reservoir".
D URING measurements of total body red cell volume by the Cr51-technic in this laboratory, normal or elevated values were observed in several patients with moderate “anemia”, as judged by the hematocrit of peripheral venous blood. #{176} In each instance, marked to massive splenomegaly was present and increased localization of red cell radioactivity in the spleen was noted by body surface scann...
متن کاملPostperfusion Lung Syndrome following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
The postperfusion lung syndrome is an uncommon event after open-heart surgery. However, the timing of tracheal extubation after the operation remains controversy. A 58-year-old female patient underwent coronary artery bypass grafting. She developed postperfusion lung syndrome after the operation. In spite of stable cardiopulmonary condition, her arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) and partial pre...
متن کاملThe body/venous hematocrit ratio: its constancy over a wide hematocrit range.
Most observers have found that when circulating red cell volume is deduced from measurement of plasma volume and venous hematocrit a higher value is obtained than when the red cell volume is measured directly. It is widely believed that this is because the proportion of red cells in the blood in large vessels is higher than that in the body as a whole and various correction factors have been pr...
متن کاملHematocrit of the human cranial blood pool.
• Since the hematocrit of arteriolar and capillary blood is substantially lower than that found in larger vessels, the mean hematocrit of total organs will be lower than the large vessel hematocrit, particularly in organs, such as human brain, that contain very rich capillary beds. This has been demonstrated in many tissues.-~' It is the purpose of this article to describe a basic technique for...
