Interhospital transportation of patients with severe lung failure on pumpless extracorporeal lung assist

Abstract: Due to ease of handling, high effectiveness and relatively low costs, iLA seems to be a useful system for treatment and transportation of patients with severe acute lung injury or ARDS suffering from life-threatening hypoxia and/or hypercapnia.

“…Most studies in humans have described a significant rise in Pa,O 2 after implementation of iLA treatment [6][7][8][16][17][18]. The patients evaluated in the current study had a Pa,O 2 /FI,O 2 ratio of 69 mmHg before iLA treatment, which increased to 94 mmHg within 2 h (p,0.001).…”

“…Outro ponto a ser abordado é o fato de que, segundo ZIMMERMANN et al (2006) e KOOP et al (2006, a transferência de oxigênio no desvio artério-venoso pode não ser sufi ciente justamente porque o sangue que chega ao oxigenador é o arterial, sendo este desvio cardiopulmonar capaz de promover apenas um aumento moderado da oxigenação. Porém, como os animais do grupo 2 não receberam ventilação mecânica e apresentavam-se em apneia, o sangue que alcançava o oxigenador possuía características venosas e, teoricamente, deveria ser capaz de alcançar um nível de saturação alto, como se pôde comprovar com os dados apresentados pelo animal 6, cuja SatO 2 foi excelente.…”
