May support considering EVLW in early AMI despite low PAOP; hypothesis-generating for PVR and infarct size links, needing prospective validation.
In the early phase of acute myocardial infarction, larger infarcts can lead to increased extravascular lung water despite low pulmonary artery occlusion pressure, which correlates with increased pulmonary vascular resistance.
Takayama et al. (1991) studied this question.
