Abstract Introduction Endothelial dysfunction is a hallmark of sepsis associated with lung transvascular fluid flux and pulmonary dysfunction in septic patients. We tested the hypothesis that methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus MRSA sepsis following smoke inhalation increases pulmonary transvascular fluid flux via excessive nitric oxide NO production. Methods Ewes were chronically instrumented and randomised into either a control or MRSA sepsis MRSA and smoke inhalation group. Results Pulmonary function remained stable in
