Extravascular Lung Water Monitoring

2021
Water contributes 80% of the lung components; however, most of them existed in the blood vessels and distributed in a gradient of increasing density from nondependent to dependent regions. By definition, extravascular lung water (EVLW) is the amount of water that is contained in the lungs outside the pulmonary vasculature, composed of the sum of ...

Extravascular lung water measurement in septic sheep

Journal of Surgical Research, 1986
Sheep were prepared with a chronic lung lymph fistula and studied unanesthetized following septicemia by infusion of live Escherichia coli 10(9) ml/kg bw or injection of oleic acid 0.05 ml/kg bw. Extravascular lung water (EVTV) was measured with thermal-dye technique and compared to gravimetrically measured lung water (EVWV). Septic sheep had increased

Influence of size of emboli on extravascular lung water

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1989
We examined the influence of the size of emboli on the vascular volume (QL) and extravascular volume (Qev) accessible to 3HOH during a single pass through an isolated dog lung lobe using the double indicator-dilution method with 125I-human serum albumin as the vascular indicator.

Effect of pneumonectomy on extravascular lung water in dogs

Journal of Surgical Research, 1985
The effect of pneumonectomy in dogs on extravascular lung water (EVLW) was studied using a double-indicator (iced indocyanine green dye) dilution technique. The EVLW was measured in five dogs before and after a left pneumonectomy while left atrial pressure was increased in 5-mm Hg increments from 10 to 25 mm Hg by serially inflating a left atrial Foley

Extravascular Lung Water Quantification in Donor Lungs

The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2019
Purpose Extravascular lung water (EVLW) could change in donor lungs in a time-dependent fashion during procurement or Ex-Vivo Lung Perfusion (EVLP) and may vary across different zones. Current techniques for EVLW assessment are either subjective or not feasible in the clinical setting.

Extravascular lung water monitoring for thoracic and lung transplant surgeries

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2019
Excessive accumulation of extravascular lung water (EVLW) resulting in pulmonary edema is the most feared complication following thoracic surgery and lung transplant. ICUs have long relied on chest radiography to monitor pulmonary status postoperatively but the increasing recognition of the limitations of bedside plain films has fueled development of ...

Extravascular Lung Water: Concepts in Clinical Application

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1989
EVLW holds the potential to serve as a better clinical end point to clinical decision than current cardiopulmonary parameters. Evidence is present that the use of EVLW data may improve patient outcome, particularly in the population of high EVLW and low PCWP.

High frequency ventilation and the accumulation of extravascular lung water

Journal of Surgical Research, 1984
INTRODUCTION Pulmonary edema, or increased lung water, adversely affects gas exchange and pulmonary compliance. Numerous safety factors exist to protect against pulmonary edema and alveolar flooding. The most important of these safety factors is thought to be the lymphatic system, which removes water and protein that filters out of the pulmonary ...

Extravascular Lung Water: Clinical Methodology

1991
The adult respiratory distress Syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by low-pressure interstitial lung edema due to an increase of capillary permeability. Different methods have been established to measure the extravascular lung water (EVLW) for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
