Inhaled nitric oxide in adults: Biology and indications for use
Nitric oxide (NO) is a naturally occurring vasodilator produced by vascular endothelial cells. Inhaled NO is currently approved for treatment of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN).

2023年8月28日 · NIH recommends against using the routine use of inhaled nitric oxide. However, based on a meta-analysis, NIH suggests that it may be reasonable to use inhaled nitric oxide as rescue therapy in patients with COVID-19 and severe ARDS due to the transient improvement of oxygenation after other alternatives have failed.

Inhaled Nitric Oxide Therapy - Mayo Clinic Proceedings
Inhaled NO is a new investigational drug used for selective vasodilation of the pulmonary vasculature. It mimics the effects of endogenously produced endothelium-derived relaxing factor. In addition to selective pulmonary vasodilation, inhaled NO can improve hypoxemia by improving ventilationperfusion relationships within the lung.
