Educational Pearls:

Inhaled nitric oxide or Flolan may be considered in COVID
- Flolan is a prostaglandin can be inhaled or given IV
These medications are classically used for right-sided heart failure, but may be used in COVID
Causes pulmonary vasodilation to reduce the resistance against the right ventricle
Complications include hypotension and hemolysis, but nitric oxide can be turned off very quickly if needed
- Be careful and wean patients on nitric oxide for pulmonary hypertension
