Extravascular Lung Water and Acute Lung Injury [PDF]

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2012
Acute lung injury carries a high burden of morbidity and mortality and is characterised by nonhydrostatic pulmonary oedema. The aim of this paper is to highlight the role of accurate quantification of extravascular lung water in diagnosis, management, and prognosis in “acute lung injury” and “acute respiratory distress syndrome”.

The Association Between Extravascular Lung Water and Critical Care Outcomes Following Bilateral Lung Transplantation [PDF]

Transplantation Direct, 2022
Background. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a form of acute respiratory failure that complicates 30% of bilateral lung transplants. Higher grades of PGD correlate with higher severity of respiratory failure and unfavorable outcomes.

Lung Ultrasound Reproducibly Outperforms Computed Tomography in the Detection of Extravascular Lung Water in Patients Undergoing Haemodialysis [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: Lung ultrasound (LUS) is increasingly used as an extension of physical examination, informing clinical diagnosis, and decision making. There is particular interest in the assessment of patients with pulmonary congestion and extravascular lung
