Extravascular Lung Water and Effect on Oxygenation Assessed by Lung Ultrasound in Adult Cardiac Surgery

Abstract: Introduction The extravascular lung water content is determined by the use of lung ultrasound (LUS) which is represented as B-lines. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the LUS measurement of extravascular lung water was correlated to changes in oxygenation. Methods This prospective cohort study was comprised of 73 patients with an average age of 56 (range: 18 to 87 years) who underwent elective cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass. The LUS score was perfor… Show more

“…Moreover, higher peak values of EVLW were correlated with increased ventilation time and ICU stay, possibly suggesting more difficult weaning in these patients [ 44 ]. Estimation of EVLW by the means of lung ultrasound has also been described in cardiac surgery and is discussed in Section 3.2 [ 45 ].…”

“…26) CPB can result in decreased lung compliance and poor oxygenation, which may be related to extended breathing. 26,27) In our systematic review, the use of GDP protocols resulted in a reduction in mortality with an OR of 0.55 among patients undergoing heart surgery, but statistically not significant. This result is similar to the findings in some meta-analyses such as Giglio 22,23,25) and RCT studies.…”

“…As a non-invasive bedside investigation, lung ultrasound may be used to judge EVLW, whereby the more B-lines in lung ultrasound, the more serious the EVLW. 29 Usually, new onset of AF during liver transplantation may be self-limiting, 19 often lasting between 1 hour and 1 week. 11 The main treatment includes maintaining hemodynamic stability and controlling ventricular rate.…”
