Luciano Gattinoni (*12 January 1945; †2 December 2024) was an Italian physician and scientist, internationally recognized as a pioneer in intensive care medicine and mechanical ventilation. His work provided groundbreaking insights into the treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and other severe respiratory conditions.
Biography
Luciano Gattinoni was born in Milan, Italy. He earned his medical degree in 1969 from the University of Milan and specialized in anesthesiology and resuscitation in 1974. From 1975 to 1977, he was a research fellow and expert consultant at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, USA. Upon returning to Italy, he held various academic and clinical positions, including Professor of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine at the University of Milan and Head of the Department of Anesthesia and Resuscitation at the Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico. From 2016 onwards, he served as a visiting professor at the University of Göttingen in Germany. [1]
Scientific Contributions
Gattinoni’s research focused on the physiology of ARDS and the optimization of mechanical ventilation. He introduced the concept of the “baby lung,” referring to the functional portion of the lung available for gas exchange in ARDS patients.[2] He also promoted the use of prone positioning to improve oxygenation in ARDS patients. [3][4][5]
Additionally, he played a key role in developing extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as treatment options for patients with severe respiratory failure.
Awards and Recognition
Throughout his career, Gattinoni received numerous awards, including the Knight of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic in 1992 and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Society of Anesthesiologists in 2001 (source: https://www.unimi.it/sites/default/files/2019-06/emerito_Luciano%20Gattinoni_scheda_0.pdf). He served as Honorary President of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) and the World Federation of Societies of Intensive and Critical Care Medicine.[6]
Legacy
Luciano Gattinoni’s work has had a lasting impact on the treatment of critically ill patients. His methodologies and insights are applied worldwide and have significantly improved the standard of care for ARDS and other life-threatening conditions.[6]
