Lung shunt fraction

In both methods a reduction of the total dose is recommended with respect to a potential lung shunt fraction (LSF) ... [Pg.80]

When lung shunt fraction (LSF) is taken into account, the actual dose delivered to the target volume becomes [15] ... [Pg.154]

In a subsequent study [95], nebulized rhAT was used in the same model and was even more effective than intravenously administered rhAT at half the dose. In addition, pulmonary gas exchange, shunt fraction and lung wetdry weight ratio were significantly attenuated by AT nebuli-zation, thereby underscoring the protective effect of rhAT in this sepsis model. [Pg.1010]

FIGURE 9 The effects of 80-ppm nitric oxide (NO) inhalation in six patients with transient graft dysfunction after lung transplantation. Pulmonary artery pressure (PAp), pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI), and intrapulmonary shunt fraction (Qs/Qt) decreased significantly, while arterial oxygen pressure (PaOi increased.

L = Shunt fraction (%) of microspheres from liver to lung based on macro-agglutinated albumin (MAA) nuclear medicine scan... [Pg.55]

Neither steroid had an effect on mortality, lung oedema, or shunt fraction. However, some beneficial effects on cardiac parameters, e.g. stroke volume, left ventricular stroke work, were noted Steroids were neither beneficial nor detrimental in the treatment of phosgene induced lung injury... [Pg.137]
