Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of inhaled nitric oxide in patients with severe ARDS.
Rolf Rossaint,H. Gerlach,Hanna Schmidt-Ruhnke,D. Pappert,K. Lewandowski,Wolfgang Steudel,Konrad J. Falke +6 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypoxia decreases exhaled nitric oxide in mountaineers susceptible to high-altitude pulmonary edema.
T Busch,Peter Bärtsch,D. Pappert,Ekkehard Grünig,Wulf Hildebrandt,Hubert Elser,Konrad J. Falke,Erik R. Swenson +7 more
TL;DR: The data provide the first evidence of decreased pulmonary NO production in HAPE-susceptible subjects during acute hypoxia that may contribute among other factors to their enhanced hypoxic pulmonary vascular response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence, severity, and mortality of acute respiratory failure in Berlin, Germany.
TL;DR: The data offer novel information on incidence, severity, and mortality of ARF in a major urban population in Berlin, Germany, a metropolis with a population of 3.44 million.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dose-response characteristics during long-term inhalation of nitric oxide in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome: a prospective, randomized, controlled study.
Herwig Gerlach,Didier Keh,Alexander Semmerow,Thilo Busch,Klaus Lewandowski,D. Pappert,Rolf Rossaint,Konrad J. Falke +7 more
TL;DR: Long-term inhaled NO with constant doses of 10 ppm leads to enhanced sensitivity after several days and does do not allow reduction of ventilation parameters, Hence, previous trials on therapy with inhaled No in ARDS should be carefully interpreted.
