Extravascular lung water in the exercising horse [PDF]
Seven standardbred horses were exercised on a treadmill at speeds (∼12 m/s) producing maximal heart rate, hypoxemia, and a mean pulmonary arterial pressure of ∼75 mmHg. Extravascular lung water was measured by using transients in temperature and electrical impedance of the blood caused by a bolus injection of cold saline solution.

Distribution of Capillary Transit Times in Isolated Lungs of Oxygen-Tolerant Rats [PDF]
Rats pre-exposed to 85% O2 for 5–7 days tolerate the otherwise lethal effects of 100% O2. The objective was to evaluate the effect of rat exposure to 85% O2 for 7 days on lung capillary mean transit time (t¯c) and distribution of capillary transit times (

Estimation of Extravascular Lung Water During and After Extensive Thoracic Interventions
Background. Postoperative lung injury is a cause of most fatal outcomes after extensive lung resections. Death rates due to postpneumonectomy pulmonary edema have remained unchanged within the past 20 years and are currently tending to 100%.

Extravascular lung water measurement in critically ill patients
In intensive care patients, due to increase in hydrostatic pressure and hyperpermeability state, pulmonary edema occurs. In this review, we discussed about definition and amount of extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) which relates to an increasing ...

The choice of the intravenous fluid influences the tolerance of acute normovolemic anemia in anesthetized domestic pigs [PDF]
The correction of hypovolemia with acellular fluids results in acute normovolemic anemia. Whether the choice of the infusion fluid has an impact on the maintenance of oxygen (O2) supply during acute normovolemic anemia has not been investigated so far ...

Basement membrane-rich Organoids with functional human blood vessels are permissive niches for human breast cancer metastasis [PDF]
Metastasic breast cancer is the leading cause of death by malignancy in women worldwide. Tumor metastasis is a multistep process encompassing local invasion of cancer cells at primary tumor site, intravasation into the blood vessel, survival in systemic ...

Optic nerve ultrasound for fluid status assessment in patients with severe preeclampsia
There are no data on usefulness of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) as a marker of patient’s fluid status in preeclampsia. The objective was to examine potential correlation between ONSD and lung ultrasound estimates of extravascular lung water in ...

Aortic volume determines global end-diastolic volume measured by transpulmonary thermodilution [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) measured by transpulmonary thermodilution is regarded as indicator of cardiac preload. A bolus of cold saline injected in a central vein travels through the heart and lung, but also the aorta until ...

Lung ultrasound: a new tool for the cardiologist
For many years the lung has been considered off-limits for ultrasound. However, it has been recently shown that lung ultrasound (LUS) may represent a useful tool for the evaluation of many pulmonary conditions in cardiovascular disease.
