OBJECTIVE: To assess the time changes and mechanism of pulmonary and peripheral vascular permeability in sheep with acute lung injury and sepsis. DESIGN: Prospective, controlled, randomized trial. SETTING: University research laboratory. SUBJECTS: A total of 21 chronically instrumented, adult female sheep. INTERVENTIONS: Sheep were instrumented with lung and prefemoral lymph fistulas and allocated to either an uninjured control group (n = 5) or sepsis group (n = 5). The sheep in the sepsis group received cotton smoke inhalation injury followed by instillation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa into the lungs. All sheep were mechanically ventilated and fluid resuscitated for the entire duration of the 24-hr experiment. Additional sheep (n = 11) received injury and were killed at different time points for the measurement of vascular endothelial growth factor in lung tissue. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The injury induced a hypotensive-hyperdynamic circulation; increases in pulmonary capillary pressure, net fluid balance, lung and prefemoral lymph flow and protein content, lung water content, abdominal and thoracic fluid and protein content, neutrophil accumulation in the lung, and vascular endothelial growth factor expression in lung tissue; and decreases in PaO2/FiO2 ratio, plasma protein concentration, plasma oncotic pressure, and myocardial contractility. CONCLUSIONS: Lung edema formation in this model was the result of marked increases in both pulmonary microvascular permeability and pressure. Pulmonary vascular hyperpermeability peaked 12 hrs postinjury and was related to vascular endothelial growth factor overexpression. Early myocardial failure was a potential contributor to the constant increase in pulmonary capillary pressure. The sepsis-induced increase in peripheral microvascular permeability was associated with significant accumulation of fluid and protein in the third space. |
