| 摘要: | Objective: In this study, we employed technetium-99m hexamethylpropylene amine oxime (Tc-99m HMPAO) lung scan to detect inhalation lung injury of patients after a fire accident. Methods: Ten healthy men for controls and 10 male patients with pulmonary symptoms/signs from a fire accident were enrolled in this study for comparison. Tc-99m HMPAO lung scan was performed in each control and patient, as well as the degree of pulmonary vascular endothelium damage was represented as lung/liver uptake ratios (L/L ratio). All of the controls and patients had no smoking histories. None of the controls and patients had positive findings of plain chest radiograph (CXR) and pulmonary function test (PFT). Results: The results showed that significantly higher L/L ratio in the 10 patients (0.53 +/- 0.07) than in the 10 controls (0.30 +/- 0.07) (the p value < 0.05). Using a cut-off value of 0.40, all of the 10 patients had abnormally increased L/L ratios. Conclusions: We conclude that Tc-99m HMPAO lung scan has the potential to be a sensitive, objective and noninvasive method to detect inhalation lung injury of patients with pulmonary symptoms/signs but negative CXR and PFT findings after a fire accident. |
