Nonuniform surfactant distribution after either bolus or aerosol administration may be an important factor limiting response. In a previous study of acute lung injury, we demonstrated that lavage administration of Exosurf (13.5 mg phospholipid\/ml) was both effective and distributed uniformly in the lungs. Since the endogenous surfactant pool is much smaller than the typical dose of exogenous surfactant administered, we hypothesized that dilute surfactant preparations (4\u20134.5 mg phospholipid\/ml) administered by lung lavage would be equally effective in reversing pulmonary dysfunction in a piglet model of acute lung injury. We compared three dilute surfactants: Infasurf (n = 5), KL4-Surfactant (n = 6), and Exosurf (n = 5) with controls (n = 6) and undiluted Exosurf (13.5 mg phospholipid\/ml; n = 6). All dilute surfactant preparations were effective in improving oxygenation and other parameters of pulmonary function. Surfactant administered by lavage resulted in uniform lung distribution. We conclude that dilute surfactants administered by lung lavage are effective in reversing pulmonary dysfunction after acute lung injury. We speculate that doses in the range of 20\u201340 mg phospholipid\/kg may be adequate to improve lung function in ARDS when exogenously administered surfactant is uniformly distributed in the lung.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm.158.1.9704119","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,4]],"date-time":"2013-04-04T13:37:08Z","timestamp":1365082628000},"page":"12-17","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["Lavage Administration of Dilute Surfactants after Acute Lung Injury in Neonatal Piglets"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"158","author":[{"given":"VENKATARAMAN","family":"BALARAMAN","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, Medicine and Pathology, John A.
