Is pulmonary artery catheterization necessary for the diagnosis of pulmonary edema?

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 2015
The ability to differentiate cardiac from permeability edema on the basis of clinical and radiographic criteria was studied in 70 ICU patients in whom subsequent pulmonary artery catheterization (PAC) was performed.

Unilateral Pulmonary Edema

New England Journal of Medicine, 1961
THE fact that a pulmonary infiltrate seen on x-ray study of the chest is unilateral is often considered to favor the diagnosis of an inflammatory or neo-plastic process rather than pulmonary congestion. Nessa and Rigler‡ studied autopsied cases with pulmonary edema.

Pulmonary Edema

Chest, 1974
The integrity of the normal endothelial barrier is responsible for two of the three major safety factors preventing pulmonary edema. This is why edema due to increased pressure is usually not as severe as edema due to increased permeability. Management ought to follow sound physiologic principles. These principles are to lower microvascular hydrostatic

Pathophysiology of pulmonary edema

Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 1994
Pulmonary edema is a frequent and common cause of death in patients in critical care settings. It is seen as a complication of myocardial infarcts, hypertension, pneumonia, smoke inhalation, and high-altitude pulmonary edema. Pulmonary edema occurs when there are alterations in Starling forces and capillary permeability, opposition to lymphatic flow in

Pathogenetic Mechanisms of Neurogenic Pulmonary Edema.

Journal of Neurotrauma, 2015
Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) is a life-threatening complication of central nervous system (CNS) injuries. This review summarizes current knowledge about NPE etiology and pathophysiology with an emphasis on its experimental models, including our ...

Unilateral pulmonary edema resulting from treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax.

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 2015

Neurogenic Pulmonary Edema

Neurologic Clinics, 1984
The pathogenesis of nervous system-induced pulmonary edema remains incompletely understood. There are two major causes: elevated intravascular pressure and pulmonary capillary leak. Thus, both hemodynamic (cardiogenic) or nonhemodynamic (noncardiogenic) components exist.

Neurogenic Pulmonary Edema

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1985
Neurogenic pulmonary edema is an anomaly because it cannot be categorized into either of the two major types of pulmonary edema. Both high-pressure and increased-permeability abnormalities may be involved in the pathogenesis of neurogenic pulmonary edema. Furthermore, the mechanisms responsible for these abnormalities appear quite complex.

Neurogenic pulmonary edema

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2007
Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) is usually defined as an acute pulmonary edema occurring shortly after a central neurologic insult. It has been reported regularly for a long time in numerous and various injuries of the central nervous system in both adults and children, but remains poorly understood because of the complexity of its pathophysiologic ...

Uremic pulmonary edema

The American Journal of Medicine, 1978
Pulmonary edema fluid analyses and hemodynamic evaluations were performed in two uremic patients with acute pulmonary edema. The colloid osmotic pressure of the pulmonary edema fluid ranged from 57 per cent to 93 per cent that of the serum. Although cardiac function was normal in both patients, the serum colloid osmotic pressure--pulmonary artery wedge
