Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled Nitric Oxide for the Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome

TL;DR: Inhalation of nitric oxide by patients with severe adult respiratory distress syndrome reduces the pulmonary-artery pressure and increases arterial oxygenation by improving the matching of ventilation with perfusion, without producing systemic vasodilation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in severe acute respiratory failure. A randomized prospective study.

TL;DR: It is concluded that ECMO can support respiratory gas exchange but did not increase the probability of long-term survival in patients with severe ARF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled nitric oxide. A selective pulmonary vasodilator reversing hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.

TL;DR: Breathing 80 ppm NO for 3 hours did not increase either methemoglobin or extravascular lung water levels or modify lung histology compared with those in control lambs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled nitric oxide in persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn

TL;DR: Low levels of inhaled NO have an important role in the reversal of hypoxaemia due to PPHN, and this treatment rapidly and significantly increased preductal oxygen saturation and oxygen tensions.
