Analysis of Medical Resource Utilization and Outcome of Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Patients Undergoing Mechanical Ventilation

International Journal of Gerontology, 2015
Background: Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a potent selective pulmonary vasodilator, which is used in critically ill patients to improve oxygenation. It avoids systemic hypotension and ventilator-induced lung injury in patients using ventilators.
