“…We found no clinical benefit and a trend toward increased proinflammatory cytokines in the treated lungs. 23 This is further evidence that nitric oxide may provide no benefit in lung transplantation from brain-dead donors irrespective of the time of administration.…”

“…Its role in inflammation, tissue injury, apoptosis, and cell defense is currently being investigated [11,16,17,41,64]. NO appears to be a key link between ischemia/reperfusion injury and the rate of tissue repair [7,42,46]. In fact, alterations in NO generation appear to underpin the interrelationship of endothelial function and inflammation, with several potential protective roles in inflammatory response and ischemia.…”

Surgical intervention for congenital heart disease (CHD) can be complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH), which increases morbidity, mortality, and medical burden. Consequently, postoperative management of PH is an important clinical consideration to improve outcomes. Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a widely accepted standard of care for PH and has been studied in the context of cardiac surgery for CHD. However, large randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trials in pediatric patients are limited. This review will provide an overview of the clinical studies in this setting and will discuss general treatment considerations to facilitate a better understanding of the clinical use of iNO for PH after pediatric cardiac surgery.

“…Sin embargo, los resultados contradictorios aportados por otros autores, junto con la ausencia de estudios clínicos randomizados, impide que su uso sea generalizado. Estaría indicado en casos seleccionados de hipoxemia grave, acompañada de hipertensión arterial pulmonar 34,35 .…”
