The Case for Measuring EVLW in ARDS<br />
1. Can “drown” with only 200-300 ml extra lung<br />
water<br />
2. Want to know precisely what is happening to<br />
lung water with resuscitative and therapeutic<br />
interventions<br />
3. CXR, oxygen need, severity of injury – LIS, are<br />
imprecise determinates of the amount of<br />
pulmonary edema<br />
4. No correlation to PaOP, CVP or fluid balance<br />
with lung water
