Summary

This study aimed to quantitatively evaluate the immediate effect of inhaled nitric oxide on the ventilation / perfusion ratio in ARDS patients receiving nasal high flow oxygen therapy or noninvasive ventilation using electrical impedance tomography.

Conditions

  • ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome)

Interventions

DEVICE

Inhale different doses of nitric oxide

T0 (baseline): 20 to 30 minutes after initial stabilization; T1 (iNO 5ppm 1h): The patient non invasively inhales 5ppm NO for 1h. If the reaction standard (PaO2/FiO2 improvement ≥ 20%) is met, maintain the dose until the end of the study. Otherwise, continue to double the NO concentration and proceed with the following steps:; T2 (iNO 10ppm 1h): The patient non invasively inhales 10ppm of NO for 1h. If the reaction standard is met, maintain the dose until the end of the study, otherwise continue to double the NO concentration and proceed with the following steps; T3 (iNO 20ppm 1h): The patient non invasively inhales 20ppm NO for 1h. If the reaction standard is met, maintain the dose until the end of the study, otherwise continue to double the NO concentration and proceed with the following steps; T4 (iNO 40ppm 1h): The patient non invasively inhales 40ppm NO for 1h. All subjects completed the evaluation regardless of whether they met the response criteria.
