Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of lung protective and ventilatory management strategies for brain death donors on eligibility and availability of lungs for transplantation.Method The clinical data of two brain dead patients who accepted lung protective ventilatory management strategies from Feb.2015 to Mar.2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Two cases of brain-dead patients,due to severe cerebral trauma,accepted the aggressive lung protective ventilatory management strategies and airway management for 9 days and 4 days respectively.PaO2/FiO2,chest imaging manifestations,surface of the lung harvested and pulmonary rehabilitation of recipients after operation were observed.Result Two lung recipients were liberated from ventilation and pulmonary function improved significantly after double lung transplantation.Conclusion The application of lung protective ventilatory strategies in potential organ donors with brain death can increase the number of eligible and harvested lungs.
