Background

  • Non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema due to lung capillary endothelial injury (diffuse alveolar damage)
    • Proteinaceous material accumulate in alveoli in a heterogeneous manner (hyalinosis)
  • Symptom of an underlying disease

Causes

Clinical Features

Differential Diagnosis

Pulmonary Edema Types

Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure <18 mmHg differentiates noncardiogenic from cardiogenic pulmonary edema[1]

Evaluation

Classic ARDS on CXR.
ARDS on CXR

Workup

Diagnosis

  • CXR shows diffuse patchy pulmonary infiltrates

Diagnostic Criteria[2]

  1. New onset respiratory symptoms
  2. Bilateral pulmonary opacities
  3. Symptoms not explained by cardiac etiology or volume overload

Management

General Care

  • Treat underlying cause

Pulse Dose Steroids

  • Consider in early, established, severe ARDS in ICU setting[4]
    • NOT for prevention of ARDS (will increase risk for ARDS and worsening sepsis if not in ARDS already)
    • In theory, may reduce fibro-proliferative inflammatory changes during exudative phase (< 1 wk)
    • No benefit to starting in late ARDS (> 2 wks)
  • Meduri protocol (21 vs. 43% mortality)[5]
    • 1mg/kg loading dose methylprednisolone
    • Followed by infusion of 1mg/kg/day from day 1-14
    • Then 0.5mg/kg/day from day 15-21
    • Then 0.25mg/kg/day from day 22-25
    • Finally 0.125mg/kg/day from day 26-28

Lung Protective Mechanical Ventilation

Lung Protective Ventilator Settings[6] should be the default for all intubated patients, unless contraindicated. It has demonstrated mortality benefit for ARDS-like pulmonary conditions; limits barotrauma and decreases complications of high FiO2[7][8]

  1. Mode
    • Volume-assist control
  2. Tidal Volume
    • Start 6-8cc/kg predicted body weight[9]
      • Predicted/"ideal" body weight is used because a person's lung parenchyma does not increase in size as the person gains more weight.
    • Titrate down if plateau pressure >30 mmHg
  3. Inspiratory Flow Rate (comfort)
    • More comfortable if higher rather than lower
    • Start at 60-80 LPM
  4. Respiratory Rate (titrate for ventilation)
    • Average patient on ventilator requires 120mL/kg/min for eucapnia
    • Start 16-18 breaths/min
    • Maintain pH = 7.30-7.45
  5. FiO2/PEEP (titrate for oxygenation)
    • Move in tandem to achieve:
    • SpO2 BETWEEN 88-95%
    • PaO2 BETWEEN 55-80mmHg

Lung Protective FiO2 and PEEP Scale[10][11][12]

FiO2 0.3 0.4 0.4 0.5 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.7 0.7 0.8 0.9 0.9 0.9 1.0 1.0 1.0
PEEP 5 5 8 8 10 10 10 12 14 14 14 16 18 20 22 24

Additional Ventilation Considerations

Adjuncts

Disposition

  • Admit to ICU

Prognosis

Severity (Berlin Definition)[2]

PaO2/FiO2 Severity Mortality
200-300 Mild 27%
100-200 Mod 32%
<100 Severe 45%
