Summary
This study tested whether inhaling a high dose of nitric oxide gas (200 ppm) can prevent pneumonia that patients sometimes get in the hospital after heart surgery. 160 adults having planned heart surgery with a heart-lung machine took part. The goal was to see if this simple breathing treatment lowers the chance of developing pneumonia after the operation.
