Embodiment 1
[0141] A 60-year-old patient with severe ARDS had opacities mainly concentrated in the right lung as judged by thoracic radiography. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed via bronchoscope in the right lower lobe bronchi using a single dose of 5 mg of activated drotrecogin-α (Xigris) dissolved in 20 ml of normal saline. No significant side effects and airway bleeding were observed. The next day, the cloudiness cleared to some extent in the right lower lobe treated with BAL. On the other hand, as PaO 2 / FiO 2 A single dose of APC did not improve gas exchange as monitored by the ratio.
Embodiment 2
[0143] An 11-year-old boy with Mb Hodgkin's lymphoma (Mb. Hodgkin) was first treated with chemotherapy in 2003. A recurrence was recorded in 2005, at which time he was treated with radiation therapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT). A lung biopsy performed prior to ICU admission showed no evidence of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in the lungs. There were no signs of lymphomatous infiltration. Nine days after BMT, he was admitted to the ICU with acute pulmonary insufficiency (ALI) and persistent high fever with sepsis. Treat with broad-spectrum empiric antibiotics first. On day 4, oxygen capacity was further reduced, despite high PEEP, PaO 2 / FiO 2 The ratio is still ) started inhalation therapy with activated protein C (activated Drotrecogin-α) at a dose of 5 mg×3. After 3 doses 12 hours later, infiltrates on chest radiographs were significantly reduced; concomitantly, arterial oxygen saturation increased from 85% to 95%, while FiO 2 = 1.0. There w...
