Extravascular Lung Water Quantification in Donor Lungs
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2019Purpose 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.

Bedside Measurement of Extravascular Lung Water
1989Elevation of the hydrostatic pressure in the lung microcirculation and loss of integrity of the alveolo-capillary barrier are the pathogenetic mechanisms for the more common clinical forms of pulmonary edema. Despite that in recent years the knowledge of pulmonary edema etiology and pathogenesis has greatly increased, the detection and quantification ...

[Extravascular lung water: from genes to telemedicine].
Recenti progressi in medicina, 2013Extravascular lung water is a crucial parameter for the management of many different pathological conditions, especially heart failure. Many modalities can be employed for its evaluation, each with different advantages and limitations. In a near future, we hope that extravascular lung water assessment could be performed by non-invasive wearable devices,

Extravascular Lung Water: Clinical Methodology
1991The 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.

Noninvasive estimation of extravascular lung water using bioimpedance
Journal of Surgical Research, 1989Currently, accurate measurements of extravascular lung water (EVLW) are obtained using the double dye dilution technique (DD). However, this method is invasive and complicated and has limited its clinical use. The purpose of this study was to develop a noninvasive method for determining changes in EVLW using bioimpedance (BI) and compare these ...

Extravascular Lung Water: Concepts in Clinical Application
Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1989EVLW 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.

Extravascular lung water monitoring for thoracic and lung transplant surgeries
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2019Excessive 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 ...

Ultrasound Lung Comets: A Clinically Useful Sign of Extravascular Lung Water
Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2006Assessment of extravascular lung water is a challenging task for the clinical cardiologist and an elusive target for the echocardiographer. Today chest x-ray is considered the best way to assess extravascular lung water objectively, but this requires radiology facilities and specific reading expertise, uses ionizing energy, and poses a significant ...

Lung management during cardiopulmonary bypass: Influence on extravascular lung water
Journal of Cardiothoracic Anesthesia, 1990Progressive respiratory insufficiency secondary to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is still a hazard after cardiac surgery. Pathophysiologically, impaired capillary endothelial integrity seems to be the fundamental lesion, followed by increased interstitial fluid accumulation. The reasons for this pulmonary damage are controversial; however, management of

Extravascular Lung Water Following Liver Transplantation
1990Patients undergoing liver transplantation often come to operation with renal function already compromised [2]. These patients are at increased risk of acute renal failure because they experience significant changes in blood volume due to bleeding and third space sequestration, periods of hypotension, inferior vena cava clamping, and nephrotoxic ...
