A case of pulmonary edema secondary to salicylate intoxication is described. The pulmonary wedge pressure was normal, excluding cardiogenic pulmonary edema. Thus salicylate intoxication should be considered as a rare cause in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary edema with a normal heart size.
Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema occurs in 35% of salicylate-intoxicated patients who are over 30 years old. Cigarette smoking, chronic salicylate ingestion, a component of metabolic acidosis, and the presence of neurological symptoms on admission are strong risk factors for the subsequent development
To assess the course and prognosis of salicylate-induced pulmonary edema, we reviewed the records of 36 consecutive patients admitted with serum salicylate levels greater than 30 mg/dL. Pulmonary edema developed in eight patients, and pulmonary infiltrates were never seen in 28 patients. Several
A 43-year-old white woman presented to the emergency department with confusion, agitation, and progressive dyspnea. Chest x-ray revealed pulmonary edema. Initial diagnostic considerations were pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, sepsis, central nervous system infection, substance toxicity, and heart
Several clinical reports of salicylate-induced pulmonary edema led us to investigate the mechanism in a chronic unanesthetized sheep preparation. We infused an aspirin-buffer solution intravenously at rates up to 1,200 mg of aspirin per hour and compared effects on lung lymph flow and lymph protein
The large availability of salicylic acid products makes them an often encountered source of poisoning in the emergency department. Even though in most cases the prognosis is good, with a low incidence of long-term morbidity and mortality, complications do occur, and some of those can be life
A five-year retrospective study of pediatric salicylate intoxications (serum level greater than 300 micrograms/ml) revealed that 2/20 patients developed salicylate induced pulmonary edema. These patients had significantly higher initial anion gaps (P less than 0.02) and serum salicylate
Pulmonary edema and plasma kininogen consumption caused by intravenously administered adrenaline, were inhibited in rats pretreated with acetylsalicylic acid, but not in rats pretreated with indomethacin or sodium salicylate. The possibility of a connection between this edema and mast cell-linked
It is known that the concentration of nerve growth factor (NGF) is increased in inflamed tissue, a phenomenon thought to induce long-lasting sensitization of afferent neurons. Although the effects of NGF may be of pathophysiological relevance, there is little known about the effects of non-steroidal
Salicylate-induced pulmonary edema (SIPE) can occur in both acute and chronic users of aspirin or salicylate products. The medical history, especially when it reveals the use of salicylates, is critical when considering this diagnosis. Unfortunately, the neurologic and systemic effects of salicylate
