Abstract

Introduction

We assessed the in vivo effects of terbutaline, a beta2-agonist assumed to reduce microvascular permeability in acute lung injury.

Methods

We used a recently developed broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL) technique to repeatedly measure (every 15 min. for 4 hours) the time-course of capillary-alveolar leakage of a macromolecule (fluorescein-labeled dextran) in 19 oleic acid (OA) lung injured dogs. BAL was performed in a closed lung sampling site, using a bronchoscope fitted with an inflatable cuff. Fluorescein-labeled Dextran (FITC-D70) was continuously infused and its concentration measured in plasma and BAL fluid. A two-compartment model (blood and alveoli) was used to calculate KAB, the transport rate coefficient of FITC-D70 from blood to alveoli. KAB was estimated every 15 minutes over 4 hours. Terbutaline intra-venous perfusion was started 90 min. after the onset of the injury and then continuously infused until the end of the experiment.

Results

In the non-treated injured group, the capillary-alveolar leakage of FITC-D70 reached a peak within 30 minutes after the OA injury. Thereafter the FITC-D70 leakage decreased gradually until the end of the experiment. Terbutaline infusion, started 90 min after injury, interrupted the recovery with an aggravation in FITC-D70 leakage.

Conclusions

As cardiac index increased with terbutaline infusion, we speculate that terbutaline recruits leaky capillaries and increases FITC-D70 leakage after OA injury. These findings suggest that therapies inducing an increase in cardiac output and a decrease in pulmonary vascular resistances have the potential to heighten the early increase in protein transport from plasma to alveoli within the acutely injured lung.
