Study Summary

This study evaluates the use of nebulized hypertonic saline (aerosolized salt water) as a preventive treatment for post-traumatic acute lung injury (ALI). Both animal and human research indicate that aerosolized salt water might help reduce harmful inflammation with minimal risks.

Primary Outcome

For intubated patients - A decrease greater than 20% in PaO2/FiO2 (P/F) ratios will trigger DSMB review. For not intubated patients - a) the need to increase FiO2 by 10% (approximate 4 liter/minute increase) to maintain a peripheral oxygen saturation (SaO2) of 90% during nebulizer treatment; b) evidence of respiratory distress (as documented in the chart by the patient's attending) during nebulizer treatment; and c) respiratory insufficiency requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation at any

Interventions

  • DRUG Nebulized hypertonic saline
