Abstract:
Inhaled nitrous oxide (iNO) can alleviate pulmonary hypertension and enhance ventilation-perfusion matching to improve oxygenation in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS).But duration of improvement was short.From the existing researches,iNO can't effectively improve outcome in PARDS.So iNO is not recommended for routine use in PARDS.However,iNO may be used in patients with documented pulmonary hypertension or severe right ventricular dysfunction.In addition,iNO can be a rescue intervention for severely PARDS to buy time and allow other therapies.
