Acute effects of a single dose of porcine surfactant on patients with the adult respiratory distress syndrome

Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego.

In an attempt to restore functional surfactant to the lungs of patients with the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), we have treated six patients within the first 2 days of the onset of ARDS with a single dose of hydrophobic components of porcine surfactant. Surfactant (4 g in 50 ml) delivered via a bronchoscope in aliquots to each of the lobar bronchi was well tolerated and caused a modest transient improvement in gas exchange. No significant changes in chest radiograph or lung compliance were detected. Analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid showed no change in albumin, alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor specific activity, or cell count. Bronchoalveolar lavage phospholipid concentrations were elevated 3 h after surfactant administration relative to preadministration levels and fell by 24 h. In addition, in two patients we found reduced inhibition of surfactant function in BAL after surfactant replacement. These observations suggest a role for surfactant replacement in the treatment of patients with ARDS and support the need for continuing investigation.
