Inhaled NO 5 ppm was administered for 10 min and then discontinued for 10 min. This cycle was then repeated with 10 ppm inhaled NO. Results aaHb caused pulmonary arterial pressure PAP to increase from 27 to 40 mmHg P and dynamic lung compliance to decrease from 29 to 23 ml cmH2O P . After both doses of inhaled NO but particularly 10 ppm PAP was reduced P and lung compliance increased P from the aaHb levels. When inhaled NO was discontinued PAP again increased and lung compliance decreased to levels significantly different from baseline P . Conclusion We conclude that cell-free hemoglobin-induced pulmonary hypertension and decreased lung compliance can be selectively counteracted by inhaled NO.
