In order to avoid or reduce pulmonary and systemic complications, mechanical ventilator settings have an important role in each stage of lung transplantation. In this respect, the use of mechanical ventilation with a tidal volume of 6 to 8 ml kg predicted body weight, positive end-expiratory pressure of 6 to 8 cmH2O and a plateau pressure lower than 30 cmH2O has been suggested for the donor during surgery, and for the recipient both during and after surgery. For the present review, we systematically searched the PubMed database for articles published from 2000 to 2014 using the following keywords:lung transplantation, protective mechanical ventilation, lung donor, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, recruitment manoeuvres, extracorporeal CO2 removal and noninvasive ventilation.

There are no randomized-controlled trials of LTx-recipient MV strategies; however there are LTx center experiences and international survey studies reported. The main early complication of LTx is primary graft dysfunction (PGD), which is similar to the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We aim to summarize information pertinent to LTx-MV, as well as PGD, ARDS, and intraoperative MV and to synthesize these available data into recommendations. Based on the available evidence, we recommend lung-protective MV with low-tidal-volumes (≤6 mL/kg predicted body weight [PBW]) and positive end-expiratory pressure for the LTx-recipient. In our opinion, the MV strategy should be based on donor characteristics (donor PBW as a parameter of actual allograft size), rather than based on recipient characteristics; however this donor-characteristics-based protective MV is based on indirect evidence and requires validation in prospective clinical studies.

Pulmonary sarcoidosis, a granulomatous inflammatory disorder, is associated with CCPA. We identified CCPA in 2% of cases in a large cohort of sarcoidosis patients. We found a lack of response to medical treatment and poor outcome in this subgroup.
