Journal ArticleDOI
The clinical usefulness of extravascular lung water and pulmonary vascular permeability index to diagnose and characterize pulmonary edema: a prospective multicenter study on the quantitative differential diagnostic definition for acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome
Shigeki Kushimoto,Yasuhiko Taira,Yasuhide Kitazawa,Kazuo Okuchi,Teruo Sakamoto,Hiroyasu Ishikura,Tomoyuki Endo,Satoshi Yamanouchi,Takashi Tagami,Junko Yamaguchi,Kazuhide Yoshikawa,Manabu Sugita,Yoichi Kase,Takashi Kanemura,Hiroyuki Takahashi,Yuichi Kuroki,Hiroo Izumino,Hiroshi Rinka,Ryutarou Seo,Makoto Takatori,Tadashi Kaneko,Toshiaki Nakamura,Takayuki Irahara,Nobuyuki Saito,Akihiro Watanabe +24 more
TL;DR: PVPI may be a useful quantitative diagnostic tool for ARDS in patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure and radiographic infiltrates and was weakly correlated with intrathoracic blood volume in ALI/ARDS and cardiogenic edema patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of a selective neutrophil elastase inhibitor on mortality and ventilator-free days in patients with increased extravascular lung water: a post hoc analysis of the PiCCO Pulmonary Edema Study.
Takashi Tagami,Takashi Tagami,Ryoichi Tosa,Mariko Omura,Hidetada Fukushima,Tadashi Kaneko,Tomoyuki Endo,Hiroshi Rinka,Akira Murai,Junko Yamaguchi,Kazuhide Yoshikawa,Nobuyuki Saito,Hideaki Uzu,Yoichi Kase,Makoto Takatori,Hiroo Izumino,Toshiaki Nakamura,Ryutarou Seo,Yasuhide Kitazawa,Manabu Sugita,Hiroyuki Takahashi,Yuichi Kuroki,Takayuki Irahara,Takashi Kanemura,Hiroyuki Yokota,Shigeki Kushimoto +25 more
TL;DR: Although sivelestat did not significantly affect 28-day mortality, this treatment may have the potential to increase VFDs in ARDS patients with increased extravascular lung water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between extravascular lung water and severity categories of acute respiratory distress syndrome by the Berlin definition.
Shigeki Kushimoto,Tomoyuki Endo,Satoshi Yamanouchi,Teruo Sakamoto,Hiroyasu Ishikura,Yasuhide Kitazawa,Yasuhiko Taira,Kazuo Okuchi,Takashi Tagami,Akihiro Watanabe,Junko Yamaguchi,Kazuhide Yoshikawa,Manabu Sugita,Yoichi Kase,Takashi Kanemura,Hiroyuki Takahashi,Yuuichi Kuroki,Hiroo Izumino,Hiroshi Rinka,Ryutarou Seo,Makoto Takatori,Tadashi Kaneko,Toshiaki Nakamura,Takayuki Irahara,Nobuyuki Saito +24 more
TL;DR: Severity categories of ARDS described by the Berlin definition have good predictive validity and may be associated with increased extravascular lung water and pulmonary vascular permeability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early-phase changes of extravascular lung water index as a prognostic indicator in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients
Takashi Tagami,Takashi Tagami,Toshiaki Nakamura,Shigeki Kushimoto,Ryoichi Tosa,Akihiro Watanabe,Tadashi Kaneko,Hidetada Fukushima,Hiroshi Rinka,Daisuke Kudo,Hideaki Uzu,Akira Murai,Makoto Takatori,Hiroo Izumino,Yoichi Kase,Ryutarou Seo,Hiroyuki Takahashi,Yasuhide Kitazawa,Junko Yamaguchi,Manabu Sugita,Yuichi Kuroki,Takashi Kanemura,Kenichiro Morisawa,Nobuyuki Saito,Takayuki Irahara,Hiroyuki Yokota +25 more
TL;DR: Decrease in EVL Wi during the first 48 h of ARDS may be associated with 28-day survival, and Serial EVLWi measurements may be useful for understanding the pathophysiologic conditions in ARDS patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Difference in pulmonary permeability between indirect and direct acute respiratory distress syndrome assessed by the transpulmonary thermodilution technique: a prospective, observational, multi-institutional study.
Kenichiro Morisawa,Shigeki Fujitani,Yasuhiko Taira,Shigeki Kushimoto,Yasuhide Kitazawa,Kazuo Okuchi,Hiroyasu Ishikura,Teruo Sakamoto,Takashi Tagami,Junko Yamaguchi,Manabu Sugita,Yoichi Kase,Takashi Kanemura,Hiroyuki Takahashi,Yuuichi Kuroki,Hiroo Izumino,Hiroshi Rinka,Ryutarou Seo,Makoto Takatori,Tadashi Kaneko,Toshiaki Nakamura,Takayuki Irahara,Nobuyuki Saitou,Akihiro Watanabe +23 more
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest the existence of several differences in the increased degree of pulmonary permeability between patients with ARDSexp and ARDSp.
