Randomized Controlled Trial[Effects of hyperoncotic cardiopulmonary bypass prime on extravascular lung water and cardiopulmonary function in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery].
To investigated the effect of a hyperoncotic CPB-prime with hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 6% (130/0.4) on extravascular lung water (EVLW) and post-pump cardiac and pulmonary functions. ⋯ Hyperoncotic CPB-prime using HES 6% improves CI and prevents EVLW accumulation in the early post-pump period, while pulmonary function is unchanged.

Randomized Controlled TrialMeasurement of extravascular lung water following human brain death: implications for lung donor assessment and transplantation.
The measurement of extravascular lung water could aid the assessment and guide the management of potential lung donors following brain death. We therefore sought to validate a single indicator thermodilution extravascular lung water index (EVLWI-T) measurement using gravimetry and to assess the impact and clinical correlates of elevated EVLWI-T in potential lung donors and transplant recipients. ⋯ Elevated lung water is found in >50% of potential lung donors, predicts lung suitability for transplant and may adversely affect recipient outcome. Although EVLWI-T intrinsically overestimates gravimetric lung water, its measurement may aid the assessment of organ suitability. Lung water accumulation and the proinflammatory response may both be targets for modifying therapy.

Randomized Controlled TrialHypertonic solution decreases extravascular lung water in cardiac patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
To test the hypothesis that the infusion of hypertonic solution would decrease extravascular lung water postoperatively and thus improve pulmonary function. ⋯ The infusion of HSH leads to significant decreases in the extravascular lung water index during and after cardiac surgery and is associated with better preservation of pulmonary function and transient increases in the cardiac index. Further trials are needed to clarify the clinical advantages of hypertonic solution administration in patients undergoing surgery with CPB.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of modified qianyang pellet on extravascular lung water and its correlated factors at the early fluid resuscitation stage of septic shock].
To investigate the effect of modified Qianyang Pellet (MQYP) on extravascular lung water and its correlated factors at the early fluid resuscitation stage of septic shock. ⋯ On the basis of the fluid resuscitation and basic treatment, MQYP could further improve CI, GEDVI and PaO2/FiO2, decrease EVLWI and 28-day mortality, but showed no effect on CVP or SVRI at the early fluid resuscitation stage of septic shock.
