7 Nitric Oxide Magic Bullet

8 Inhaled Nitric Oxide Decreases (selectively) Pulmonary Artery Pressure Improves Oxygenation Rapid Onset/Offset Inexpensive Favorable risk/benefit ratio Various intentional and unintentional factors influence beliefs beyond what scientific evidence justifies.

9 Beyond the evidence Strength of the belief exceeds the strength of the evidence Beliefs Low saturations are bad for patients Increased pulmonary aretry pressures are bad for patients Treating either or both is beneficial to patient outcomes

47 Belief beyond the evidence: breakfast, obesity and bias Brown AM, Am J Clin Nutr:2013:98:1298

48 Inhaled NO beyond the evidence Medical decision-making in individual patients uses the findings of population-based evidence in guidelines, but the recommendations should be translated to an individual patient with unique needs and preferences. Moreover, personal experiences and interests of the health care provider and ethical principles together with economic and political considerations influence the ultimate decision. These factors cannot be quantified against each other, as they are difficult to balance. The World Health Organisation recognises this dilemma and advises that value judgements should be explicit and be influenced by patients in particular.

49 Conclusions Inhaled nitric oxide reverses acute vasoconstriction Often acutely improves oxygenation Rarely harmful acutely
