Popis: | Donor lung utilization rates are persistently low primarily due to donor lung dysfunction. We hypothesized that a treatment that enhances the resolution of pulmonary edema by stimulating the rate of alveolar fluid clearance would improve donor oxygenation and increase donor lung utilization. We conducted a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled trial of aerosolized albuterol (5mg q4h) versus saline placebo during active donor management in 506 organ donors.The primary outcome was change in oxygenation arterial partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen [PaO2/FiO2] from enrollment to organ procurement.The albuterol (n¼260) and placebo (n¼246)groups were well matched for age, gender, ethnicity,smoking, and cause of brain death. The change in PaO2/FiO2 from enrollment to organ procurement did not differ between treatment groups (p¼0.54) nor did donor lung utilization (albuterol 29% vs. placebo 32%,p¼0.44). Donors in the albuterol versus placebo groups were more likely to have the study drug dose reduced (13% vs. 1%, p |
