During ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP), fixed ventilator settings and monitoring of compliance are used to prevent ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Analysis of the airway pressure-time curve (stress index) has been proposed to assess the presence of VILI. We tested whether currently proposed ventilator settings expose lungs to VILI during EVLP and whether the stress index could identify VILI better than compliance.

Abstract

During ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP), fixed ventilator settings and monitoring of compliance are used to prevent ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Analysis of the airway pressure-time curve (stress index) has been proposed to assess the presence of VILI. We tested whether currently proposed ventilator settings expose lungs to VILI during EVLP and whether the stress index could identify VILI better than compliance.
