Open Access Abstract Intoduction Clearance of alveolar oedema depends on active transport of sodium across the alveolar-epithelial barrier. p-Adrenergic agonists increase clearance of pulmonary oedema but it has not been established whether p-agonist stimulation achieves sufficient oedema clearance to improve survival in animals. The objective of this study was to determine whether the increased pulmonary oedema clearance produced by intratracheal dopamine improves the survival of rats after mechanical ventilation with high tidal volume HVT . Methods This was a randomized controlled experimental study. One hundred and thirty-two Wistar-Kyoto rats weighing 250 to 300 g were anaesthetized
