Journal ArticleDOI
Time-course and dose-response of nitric oxide inhalation for systemic oxygenation and pulmonary hypertension in patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome
TL;DR: Inhalation of nitric oxide for improvement of oxygenation in severe ARDS should be performed using lower doses, with lower risk of toxic side effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of inhaled nitric oxide in patients with severe ARDS.

TL;DR: Beneficial effects of NO inhalation can be observed in most patients with severe ARDS; in some cases, however, it may fail to improve pulmonary gas exchange or to reduce pulmonary hypertension without obvious explanation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term inhalation with evaluated low doses of nitric oxide for selective improvement of oxygenation in patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome
TL;DR: The improvement of oxygenation by NO inhalation in ARDS does not require reduction of pulmonary resistance and can be performed using low doses in the ppb range, which has to be considered as probably non-toxic.

TL;DR: In this article, a 1-day point-prevalence study was conducted to determine the prevalence and mortality of ICU patients with severe sepsis in Germany, with consideration of hospital size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of inhaled nitric oxide on right ventricular function in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome
TL;DR: Using a new approach to selective pulmonary vasodilation by inhalation of NO, it is demonstrated in this groups of ARDS patients that an increase in RVEF is not necessarily associated with a rise in CI, and the increase in CI during PGI2 infusion is probably related to the systemic effect of this substance.
