UNOS/ISHLT Registry (6984 Patients) Kuntz CL,et al. Clin Transplant 2009;23:819-30 Procedure-Related Factors • Re-transplantation: no elevated risk for PGD • Bleeding and transfusion-related lung injury: unclear • Reperfusion technique: controlled reperfusion for 10 min • Role of cardiopulmonary bypass: controversial • CPB systemic, pro-inflammatory response • activation of cytokines, leukocytes and complement system 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
386 papers were reviewed • 14 papers represented the best evidence to answer this question • 6 papers showed significantly worse outcomes with CPB • 6 papers showed no difference • 2 papers showed a mixture of both depending on the specific • outcomes assessed 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
Question to be answered: Can elective use of CPB avoid the overperfusion of the first implanted lung thus resulting in decreased incidence of PGD? • Sheridan, et al. Ann Thorac Surg 1998;66:1755-8. • 23 DLuTX without CPB • No differences in CXR infiltrate score and quantitative lung perfusion • scan of the initially implanted lung and the second implanted lung. 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
ISHLT Working Group on Primary Lung Graft Dysfunction J Heart Lung Transplant 2005 Treatment General Considerations • Avoid excessive fluid administration in the setting of leaky capillary • syndrome low threshold for temporary ultrafiltration or dialysis • Avoid over-distension of the lungs in the ventilatory management • 6 to 8 ml/kg tidal volume with ↑ PEEP and ↓ Pmax (≤30 cm H2O) • and higher frequency ventilation with volume assist-control • ventilatory mode ↓risk of volutrauma and barotrauma • Independent lung ventilation if needed 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
Treatment Special Considerations Nitric Oxide NO intracellular cGMP production pulmonary vasodilatation maintanence of pulmonary capillary integrity prevention of leukocyte adhesion and platelet aggregation 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
Treatment Special Considerations Nitric Oxide ischemie/reperfusion injury ↓NO and ↓cGMP ↑pulmonary vascular ↑ endothelin-1 production resistance (potent vasoconstrictor) ↑ leukocyte adhesion and ↑ platelet aggregation 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
232 papers were reviewed • 6 papers represented the best evidence to answer this question • These are non-randomised and/or uncontrolled studies • There are currently no randomised controlled studies that demonstrate • a reduction in morbidity or mortality • Routine use of prophylactic inhaled NO in lung transplantation • is not recommended 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
ISHLT Working Group on Primary Lung Graft Dysfunction J Heart Lung Transplant 2005 Treatment Special Considerations Nitric Oxide • In case of established severe PGD with severe hypoxemia • and/or elevated PAP NO use is justified • NO might help maintain the patient´s stability and • prevent the need for ECMO or retransplantation 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
Treatment Special Considerations Prostaglandins Prostaglandins pulmonary vasodilatation inhibition of platelet aggregation ↓ pro-inflammatory cytokines + ↑ anti-inflammatory cytokines 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
ISHLT Working Group on Primary Lung Graft Dysfunction J Heart Lung Transplant 2005 Treatment Special Considerations Prostaglandins • In case of established severe PGD prostaglandin use • appears to be helpful • Positive effects are shown in several animal studies • Further clinical studies are required 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
ISHLT Working Group on Primary Lung Graft Dysfunction J Heart Lung Transplant 2005 Treatment Special Considerations ECMO • Potentially life-saving treatment option for patients with • severe PGD after LuTX • Early (<24 h) institution offers significant survival benefit • ECMO should not be initiated later than 7 days postop • virtually no survivors within this group • Selected patients with higher risk for developing PGD • may benefit from prophylactic use of ECMO 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
Treatment Special Considerations ECMO • PGD without hemodynamical instability veno-venous • PGD with hemodynamical instability veno-arterial 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
Treatment Special Considerations Re-Transplantation • Re-transplantation may be considered in highly selected • patients with PGD • This sub-group represents a very high-risk population • with a poor survival Aigner C,et al.

Summary • Characteristics: poor oxygenation • pulmonary edema • low pulmonary compliance • infiltrates on CXR • Incidence between 10 to 57% • Associated with poor short-term and long-term outcome after LuTX • Donor-related risk factors: age,trauma,ischemic time,preservation sol. • Recipient-related risk factors: BMI>25, female, SLuTX, PAPs>60,Ind • Treatment: avoid excessive fluid administration • avoid over-inflation in the ventilatory management • NO, prostaglandin, surfactant are promising options • Early use of ECMO is an important option in severe forms • Re-Transplantation should be evaluated very restrictively first hours up to 3 d 15th Annual Congress of Turkish Thoracic Society, 11-15 April 2012
