1.	Pulmonary Edema 01/01/1984 - "Below a critical level of LAP (15 mm Hg in these experiments), pulmonary blood flow up to 5 L/min did not produce pulmonary edema. "
2.	Hypotension (Low Blood Pressure) 01/01/2008 - "Due to a failure (severe low cardiac output) to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass (263 min) with acidosis (lactate 8.8 mmol/L), low blood pressure (< 39/30 mm Hg), increased LAP (> 20 mmHg), bloody phlegm, decreased urine output [< 1 ml/(kg.h)], a V-A ECMO was used for cardio-pulmonary support. "
3.	Low Cardiac Output 01/01/2008 - "Due to a failure (severe low cardiac output) to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass (263 min) with acidosis (lactate 8.8 mmol/L), low blood pressure (< 39/30 mm Hg), increased LAP (> 20 mmHg), bloody phlegm, decreased urine output [< 1 ml/(kg.h)], a V-A ECMO was used for cardio-pulmonary support.
