Popis: Pulmonary hypertension during cardiac surgery is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Inhaled nitric oxide serves as a selective pulmonary vasodilator and has other potential extrapulmonary protective roles. Its effects on pulmonary hypertension and organ functions after adult valve surgeries were evaluated. From April 2017 to March 2000, 30 patients received inhaled nitric oxide therapy for pulmonary hypertension during weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass in valvular surgery (iNO group). The group was compared with a control group of 65 patients who developed pulmonary hypertension during weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass in valvular surgery and received conventional therapy from April 2014 to March 2017. Intraoperative hemodynamic changes and postoperative Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score were evaluated. The inhalation of nitric oxide lowered the pulmonary-to-systemic pressure ratio (Pp/Ps) (p
