| Abstrakt: | Background: Single transpulmonary thermodilution (STTD) is a widely recognized technique for the quantification of extravascular lung water (EVLW). However, the accuracy of STTD can be substantially reduced in acute lung lesion (ALL) characterized by inhomogeneous distribution of edematous zones and major ventilation-perfusion mismatch. Quantitative computed tomography (CT) may be a helpful clinical adjunct allowing an assessment of pulmonary gas and tissue content. The purpose of the study was to compare the tissue volume index, as estimated by spiral CT (TVICT), with EVLW indices determined with STTD (EVLWISTTD), thermal-dye dilution (EVLWITDD), and postmortem gravimetry (EVLWIG) before and after oleic acid-induced ALL in sheep. Materials: Eleven yearling sheep were randomly assigned to either an oleic acid (OA) group receiving an infusion of OA in a dose of 0.08 ml/kg i.v. or to a control group. The day before and immediately after the experiment, sheep underwent CT examinations. Pulmonary and systemic hemodynamics, oxygenation, EVLWISTTD and EVLWITDD were recorded. Linear regression analysis was used to assess the relationships between EVLWISTTD, EVLWITDD, EVLWIG, and TVICT (syngo PulmpCT, Siemens, Germany). Results: OA caused 5- and 7-fold increments in poorly and nonaerated lung volumes, respectively, and increased total lung volume and TVICT, EVLWISTTD, EVLWITDD, and TVICT demonstrated a close agreement with EVLWIG (r = 0.86, 0.90, and 0.97, respectively; p < 0.001). TVICT overestimated reference EVLWIG values to the greatest extent. Conclusion: In a sheep model of OA-induced ALL, pulmonary tissue volume as estimated by quantitative CT closely correlates with EVLWI measured by dilutional methods and postmortem gravimetry. |
