Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) With a Massive Pulmonary Embolism: A Case Report.

Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) is a type of complication related to the migration of deep venous thrombi clot to the lungs. Massive PE is associated with a high level of morbidity and mortality due to elevated pulmonary vascular resistance that can cause right ventricular failure, cardiogenic shock, and hypoxemia. This report aims to explain to the readers the efficacy of applying inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) to patients with a massive PE. It also aims to evaluate iNO's pulmonary vasodilator efficacy for acute PE.
