Inhaled nitric oxide in patients with pulmonary embolism

Abstract: We reported four cases of pulmonary embolism where the administration of inhaled NO resulted in an improvement in pulmonary haemodynamic and gas-exchange parameters. Two patients were weaned from NO and survived until discharged from the ICU. Inhaled NO might be a useful adjunct in pulmonary embolism to improve stability of the patient prior to thrombolysis or surgery.

“…Our study is the only report that compares the acute hemodynamiceffects of a pulse delivery system with a nasal cannula and those of a continuous delivery system with a mask in adult patients with precapillary pulmonary hypertension. Short-term inhaled NOtherapy has been tried in cases with various types of pulmonary hypertension including persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (4-7), residual pulmonaryhypertension after cardiac surgery (8-1 2), adult respiratory distress syndrome (13,14), Eisenmenger syndrome (15,16), primary pulmonary hypertension ( 1 8), pulmonary thromboembolism (19,20), and rheumatic disease (21,22). These reports demonstrated that inhaled NOis an ideal pulmonary vasodilator for patients with pulmonary hypertension.…”

“…Vazodilatörler, pulmoner arteriyel basıncı ve pulmoner vasküler direnci azaltır, fakat bu ilaçların sistemik (intravenöz) uygulama sonrası gösterdiği etkinin pulmoner damar yatağına özgü olmaması bir sorundur. Küçük klinik çalışmalarda elde edilen verilere göre, nitrik oksit inhalasyonu, PE'li hastalarda hemodinamik durum ve gaz alışverişini düzeltebilir 7,8 . Deneysel ön veriler, akut PE'de levosimendanın, sağ ventrikül-pulmoner arter bağlantısını sağ ventrikül kasılabilirliğini ve pulmoner vazodilatasyon oluşturarak düzenleyebileceğini düşündürmektedir 9 .…”

“…По ре зультатам небольших клинических исследований у больных с ТЭЛА при ингаляции оксида азота мо жет улучшиться гемодинамика и газообмен [266,267]. Предварительно показано, что при использова нии левосимендана может восстановиться баланс между ЛА и ПЖ при острой ТЭЛА за счет сочетания вазодилатации легочных сосудов и повышения со кратимости ПЖ [268].…”
