Podcast 733: Nitric Oxide for COVID
Manage episode 308312769 series 1397179
Contributor: Nick Hatch, MD
Educational Pearls:
- Inhaled nitric oxide or Flolan may be considered in COVID
-
- Flolan is a prostaglandin can be inhaled or given IV
- These medications are classically used for right-sided heart failure, but may be used in COVID
- Causes pulmonary vasodilation to reduce the resistance against the right ventricle
- Complications include hypotension and hemolysis, but nitric oxide can be turned off very quickly if needed
-
- Be careful and wean patients on nitric oxide for pulmonary hypertension
