Abstract
Inhaled milrinone prevents the occurrence of the pulmonary endothelial dysfunction seen after cardiopulmonary bypass. The hemodynamic and oxygenation profiles obtained with inhaled milrinone are safer than with intravenous milrinone. These strategies might be useful in preventing pulmonary hypertension after cardiac surgery.
