Central Hemodynamics and Extravascular Lung Water Index in Varying Degrees of Community-Acquired Pneumonia

open access: greenОбщая реаниматология, 2015
Objective: to assess the specific features of central hemodynamics (CH), extravascular lung water index (EVLWI), and pulmonary oxygenizing function in patients with different outcomes of treatment for severe communityacquired pneumonia (CAP).Subjects and

Measurement of extravascular lung water to diagnose severe reperfusion lung injury following pulmonary endarterectomy: a prospective cohort clinical validation study. [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 2019
The measurement of extravascular lung water is a relatively new technology which has not yet been well validated as a clinically useful tool. We studied its utility in patients undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy as they frequently suffer reperfusion ...

Whole lung lavage decreases physiological dead space in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis: two case reports 

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease characterized by progressive accumulation of the alveolar surfactant. Whole lung lavage (WLL) using a high volume of warmed saline remains the standard therapy.

Cardiopulmonary ultrasound correlates of pleural effusions in patients with congestive heart failure

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Background Pleural effusions are common in patients with congestive heart failure. However, there is a need to assess systematically the correlation between effusion volume, extravascular lung water and echocardiographic parameters.
