Decreased exhaled nitric oxide may be a marker of cardiopulmonary bypass-induced injury

Abstract

Nitric oxide is an endothelium-derived vasodilator. Cardiopulmonary bypass may induce transient pulmonary endothelial dysfunction with decreased nitric oxide release that contributes to postoperative pulmonary hypertension and lung injury. Exhaled nitric oxide levels may reflect, in part, endogenous production from the pulmonary vascular endothelium.
