Introduction Pulmonary edema
Abnormal fluid accumulation within lung parenchyma & alveoli resulting in hypoxemia May be secondary to CHF or ALI Severe ALI is called ARDS or non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema Often occurs with MODS ARDS is common cause of respiratory failure CHF – congestive heart failure, ALI – acute lung injury, ARDS - acute respiratory distress syndrome, MODS - multiple organ dysfunction syndrome Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 6

Epidemiology ARDS has many diverse causes
Mortality rates have fallen from more than 90% to 30-40% better supportive care early detection effective management of cormorbidities application of new ventilatory strategies Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 7

The following are risk factors for ALI and ARDS, except:
pneumonia toxic inhalation lung contusion pulmonary hypertension Answer: D Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.
10
Pathophysiology Pulmonary edema
Fluid first accumulates in interstitial space Followed by alveolar flooding Impairs gas exchange & reduces lung compliance Can be result of hydrostatic pulmonary edema or non-hydrostatic pulmonary edema Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 10
11
Pathophysiology (cont.)
Hydrostatic (Cardiogenic) Pulmonary Edema Fluid accumulation in interstitium raises hydrostatic pressure rapidly & alveolar flooding follows Flooding occurs in “all or nothing” manner Fluid filling alveoli is identical to interstitial fluid Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.

13
Pathophysiology (cont.)
Non-hydrostatic (Non-Cardiogenic) Pulmonary Edema Fluid accumulates despite normal hydrostatic pressure. Vascular endothelial injury alters permeability Protein-rich fluid floods interstitial space Alveolar flooding occurs as osmotic pressures in capillaries & interstitium equalize Alveolar epithelium & pulmonary fluid clearance are impaired Common mechanism for development of ARDS appears to be lung inflammation Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 13
14
Gas Exchange & Lung Mechanics During ARDS
Restrictive physiology & refractory hypoxemia Altered permeability floods lung, resulting in decreased lung compliance (CL) & consolidation Impaired surfactant synthesis & function worsens gas exchange & CL Loss of normal vascular response to alveolar hypoxemia Unaerated alveoli receive blood flow in excess, which contributes to severe ventilation-perfusion mismatching & increased shunting Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 14

16
Role of Organ-Organ Interactions in Pathogenesis
ALI resulting in MODS probably related to PMN- mediated inflammation Broad-spectrum antibiotic usage results in resistant “bugs,” particularly in GI tract Escape GI tract & activate RE in liver/lymph/spleen RE may activate & sustain systemic inflammatory response that leads to ARDS & MODS Balance of anti-inflammatory & proinflammatory factors, severity of illness, comorbidities predisposes patients to ARDS & MODS RE – reticuloendothelial Copyright © 2013, 2009, 2003, 1999, 1995, 1990, 1982, 1977, 1973, 1969 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 16
17
Histopathology & Clinical Correlates of ARDS

18
Histopathology & Clinical Correlates of ARDS (cont.)
