Extravascular Lung Water and Effect on Oxygenation Assessed by Lung Ultrasound in Adult Cardiac Surgery. [PDF]

Cureus, 2020
Introduction The extravascular lung water content is determined by the use of lung ultrasound (LUS) which is represented as B-lines. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the LUS measurement of extravascular lung water was correlated to ...

Lung Ultrasound Score Predicts the Extravascular Lung Water Content in Low-Birth-Weight Neonates with Patent Ductus Arteriosus. [PDF]

Med Sci Monit, 2020
Background Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a common congenital cardiac abnormality in premature infants. In low-birth-weight infants weighing less than 2500 g, if the PDA continues to open, abnormal circulation hemodynamics and pulmonary edema may ...

Lung Ultrasound to Quantitatively Evaluate Extravascular Lung Water Content and its Clinical Significance [PDF]

Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2020
Background As we all know, pulmonary edema can be diagnosed by lung ultrasound (LUS), but how to accurately and quantitatively evaluate lung water content by ultrasound is a difficult problem that needs to be solved urgently.

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.

Extravascular lung water measurements in acute respiratory distress syndrome: why, how, and when? [PDF]

Curr Opin Crit Care, 2018
Purpose of reviewIncrease in pulmonary vascular permeability accompanied with accumulation of excess extravascular lung water (EVLW) is the hallmark of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Currently, EVLW and pulmonary vascular permeability index (

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

Ultrasound of extravascular lung water: a new standard for pulmonary congestion. [PDF]

Eur Heart J, 2016
Extravascular lung water (EVLW) is a key variable in heart failure management and prognosis, but its objective assessment remains elusive. Lung imaging has been traditionally considered off-limits for ultrasound techniques due to the acoustic barrier of ...

The Impact of Goal-Directed Fluid Therapy in Prolonged Major Abdominal Surgery on Extravascular Lung Water and Oxygenation: A Randomized Controlled Trial. [PDF]

Open Access Maced J Med Sci, 2019
BACKGROUND: A growing interest had been paid to goal-directed fluid therapy (GDT) in abdominal surgery; however, its impact on the respiratory profile was not well investigated.

Fluid Balance Is Associated with Clinical Outcomes and Extravascular Lung Water in Children with Acute Asthma Exacerbation. [PDF]

Am J Respir Crit Care Med, 2018
Rationale: The effects of fluid administration during acute asthma exacerbation are likely unique in this patient population: highly negative inspiratory intrapleural pressure resulting from increased airway resistance may interact with excess fluid ...
