Zusammenfassung: | Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) has been used for treatment of acute respiratory failure and pulmonary hypertension since 1991 in adult patients in the perioperative setting and in critical care.
This contribution assesses evidence for the use of iNO in this population as presented to a expert group jointly organised by the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the European Association of Cardiothoracic Anaesthesiologists.
Expert recommendations on the use of iNO in adults were agreed on following presentation of the evidence at the expert meeting held in June 2004. |
