Association between different indexations of extravascular lung water (EVLW) and PaO2/FiO2: a two-center study in 231 patients.

Association between different indexations of extravascular lung water (EVLW) and PaO2/FiO2: a two-center study in 231 patients.

<h4>Background</h4>Variability of body weight (BW) and height calls for indexation of volumetric hemodynamic parameters. Extravascular lung water (EVLW) has formerly been indexed to actual BW (BW(act)) termed EVLW-index (EVLWI). In overweight patients indexation to BW(act) might inapprop...
