We aimed to investigate whether left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is associated with pulmonary edema in septic patients.
We conducted a prospective cohort study in adult septic patients between October 2018 and May 2019. We performed repeated echocardiography and lung ultrasound examinations within the first 7 days after diagnosis of sepsis. We defined LVDD according to the 2016 recommendations of the American Society of Echocardiography and-for sensitivity analysis-according to an algorithm which has been validated in septic patients. We quantified pulmonary edema using the lung ultrasound score (LUSS), counting B-lines in four intercostal spaces.
We included 54 patients. LVDD was present in 51 (42%) of 122 echocardiography examinations. The mean (±SD) LUSS was 11 ± 6. There was no clinically meaningful association of LVDD with LUSS ( = 0.55 [95%CI: -1.38; 2.47]; = 0.571). Pneumonia was significantly associated with higher LUSS ( = 4.42 [95%CI: 0.38; 8.5]; = 0.033).
The lack of a clinically meaningful association of LVDD with LUSS suggests that LVDD is not a major contributor to pulmonary edema in septic patients.

我们旨在研究左心室舒张功能障碍（LVDD）是否与脓毒症患者的肺水肿相关。
我们在2018年10月至2019年5月期间对成年脓毒症患者进行了一项前瞻性队列研究。在脓毒症诊断后的前7天内，我们进行了重复的超声心动图和肺部超声检查。我们根据美国超声心动图学会2016年的建议定义LVDD，并为进行敏感性分析，根据一种已在脓毒症患者中得到验证的算法进行定义。我们使用肺部超声评分（LUSS）对肺水肿进行量化，计算四个肋间空间的B线数量。
我们纳入了54例患者。在122次超声心动图检查中，有51例（42%）存在LVDD。LUSS的平均值（±标准差）为11±6。LVDD与LUSS之间没有具有临床意义的关联（β = 0.55 [95%CI：-1.38；2.47]；P = 0.571）。肺炎与较高的LUSS显著相关（β = 4.42 [95%CI：0.38；8.5]；P = 0.033）。
LVDD与LUSS之间缺乏具有临床意义的关联表明，LVDD不是脓毒症患者肺水肿的主要促成因素。
