Extravascular lung water determined with single transpulmonary thermodilution correlates with the severity of sepsis-induced acute lung injury

Abstract

In human septic shock, EVLWI demonstrated moderate correlation with markers of acute lung injury, such as lung compliance, oxygenation ratio, roentgenogram quadrants, and lung injury score. In nonsurvivors, EVLWI and permeability indexes were significantly increased at day 3. Thus, EVLWI might be of value as an indicator of prognosis and severity of sepsis-induced acute lung injury.
