چکیده

OBJECTIVE Robust markers of subclinical perioperative lung injury are lacking. Extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability index are two promising early markers of lung edema. We aimed to evaluate whether extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability index would identify patients at risk for clinically significant postoperative pulmonary edema, particularly resulting from the acute respiratory distress syndrome. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Tertiary care academic medical center. PATIENTS Adults undergoing high-risk cardiac or aortic vascular surgery (or both) with risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability index measurements were obtained intraoperatively and in the early postoperative period. We assessed the accuracy of peak extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability index as predictive markers of clinically significant pulmonary edema (defined as acute respiratory distress syndrome or cardiogenic pulmonary edema) using area under the receiver-operating characteristic curves. Associations between extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability patient-important with important outcomes were assessed. Of 150 eligible patients, 132 patients (88%) had extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability index measurements. Of these, 13 patients (9.8%) had postoperative acute respiratory distress syndrome and 15 patients (11.4%) had cardiogenic pulmonary edema. Extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight effectively predicted development of clinically significant pulmonary edema (area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.70-0.89). Pulmonary vascular permeability index discriminated acute respiratory distress syndrome from cardiogenic pulmonary edema alone or no edema (area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.62-0.93). Extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight was associated with the worst postoperative PaO2/FIO2, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU stay, and hospital stay. Peak values for extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight and pulmonary vascular permeability index were obtained within 2 hours of the primary intraoperative insult for the majority of patients (> 80%). CONCLUSIONS Perioperative extravascular lung water indexed to predicted body weight is an early marker that predicts risk of clinically significant postoperative pulmonary edema in at-risk surgical patients. Pulmonary vascular permeability index effectively discriminated postoperative acute respiratory distress syndrome from cardiogenic pulmonary edema. These measures will aid in the early detection of subclinical lung injury in at-risk surgical populations.

Extravascular 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...

Extravascular lung water in acute respiratory distress syndrome and the Berlin definition: time for real change

I echo the call for a real change in the diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), as put forward in the recent editorial by Phillips [1]. Whilst there are real limitations regarding availability, feasibility and interpretation of extravascular lung water (EVLW), it remains one of the few clinically available quantitative parameters for assessment of the severity of lung injury. ...

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...

Effect of rhubarb on extravascular lung water in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of rhubarb on extravascular lung water (EVLW) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Method: A total of 80 patients with ARDS were randomly divided into a treatment group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases). Patients in the treatment group received rhubarb (30.0 g/d) and patients in the control group receive...
