Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Airway Pressure (PEEP) on Extravascular Thermal Lung Water Estimation in the Dog

  • Conference paper
Practical Applications of Fiberoptics in Critical Care Monitoring

Abstract

Ventilatory support with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is commonly used to treat patients suffering from the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Managing the frequently involved pulmonary edema includes the assessment of fluid actually accumulated in the lungs. Various invasive and non-invasive methods have recently been developed. Among them the double indicator dilution technique [5] proved to be clinically applicable [38]. Under a variety of edemagenic conditions an excellent correlation between the thermal lung water and that determined gravimetrically has been established in the experimental setting [23]. Nevertheless, there is “a consensus that the current (and probably all) methods for measuring lung water content in man are limited by both methodological and population variances to accuracies and sensitivities of about 20%–30%” [38].
