Cigarette smoke in lungs evokes reflex increase in tracheal submucosal gland secretion in dogs. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Stimulation of pulmonary C-fibers (PCs) by capsaicin and of rapidly adapting receptors (RARs) by reduced lung compliance reflexly increases airway submucosal gland secretion in dogs. Because both PCs and RARs are stimulated by cigarette smoke (nicotine being the primary stimulus), we performed experiments in anesthetized open-chest artificially ventilated dogs (with aortic nerves cut) to determine whether cigarette smoke reflexly stimulates airway secretion. We measured submucosal gland secretion by counting the hillocks in a 1.2-cm2 field of tracheal epithelium coated with tantalum dust. Secretion was stimulated by delivery of 40-320 ml smoke from high-nicotine cigarettes to the lower trachea, secretion rate increasing from 7.4 +/- 1.3 to 48.1 +/- 5.1 hillocks.cm-2.min-1. Results of cutting the pulmonary vagal branches or carotid sinus nerves or both indicated that the secretory response was initiated by stimulation of lower respiratory vagal afferents and augmented several seconds later by stimulation of carotid chemoreceptors. Results of cooling the cervical vagus nerves to 7 and 0 degrees C indicated that most of the vagally mediated increase in secretion was due to stimulation of afferent lung C-fibers. 相似文献

We examined the response of pulmonary rapidly adapting receptors (RAR's) to changes in dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn) in the physiological range. RAR impulse activity was recorded from the cervical vagus nerves in anesthetized open-chest dogs whose lungs were ventilated at constant rate and tidal volume (VT), with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 3-4 cmH2O. After hyperinflation to produce maximal Cdyn, RAR's were silent or fired sparsely and irregularly. Reducing Cdyn in steps by briefly removing PEEP increased firing proportionately, and RAR's began to discharge vigorously in inflation. Activity was restored to control by hyperinflating the lungs. Activity also increased when we increased inflation rate, and hence the rate of change of airway pressure (dP/dt), by reducing inflation time, keeping VT and cycle length constant. RAR's were stimulated more when dP/dt was increased by reducing compliance than when dP/dt was increased by increasing inflation rate. We conclude that RAR's are sensitive to changes in Cdyn and speculate that excitatory input from RAR's may help to maintain VT as the lungs become stiffer. 相似文献

We examined the ability of rapidly adapting receptors (RARs) to monitor changes in dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn) in anesthetized spontaneously breathing dogs by recording RAR impulses from the vagus nerves. We decreased Cdyn in steps through the physiological range by briefly restricting lung expansion with an inflatable cuff around the chest and recording the response after deflating the cuff; we restored Cdyn to control by hyperinflating the lungs. Of 45 RARs, 34 were stimulated by a 40 +/- 2% reduction in Cdyn, their inspiratory discharge increasing on average more than threefold. Two-thirds of responsive RARs were stimulated by less than or equal to 20% reductions in Cdyn; in most, firing increased proportionately with lung stiffness (1/Cdyn) as Cdyn was decreased further. Stimulation by reduced Cdyn was not simply a function of the concomitant increase in transpulmonary pressure, because similar increases in pressure produced by increasing tidal volume produced smaller increases in firing. RAR stimulation was unaffected by atropine and, hence, was not dependent on neurally mediated changes in bronchomotor tone. Our results indicate that during spontaneous breathing RARs provide a signal inversely proportional to Cdyn. 相似文献

We have previously shown (Am. Rev. Respir. Dis. 136: 886-891, 1987) improved cardiac output in dogs with pulmonary edema ventilated with external continuous negative chest pressure ventilation (CNPV) using negative end-expiratory pressure (NEEP), compared with continuous positive-pressure ventilation (CPPV) using equivalent positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). The present study examined the effect on lung water of CNPV compared with CPPV to determine whether the increased venous return created by NEEP worsened pulmonary edema in dogs with acute lung injury. Oleic acid (0.06 ml/kg) was administered to 27 anesthetized dogs. Supine animals were then divided into three groups and ventilated for 6 h. The first group (n = 10) was treated with intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) alone; the second (n = 9) received CNPV with 10 cmH2O NEEP; the third (n = 8) received CPPV with 10 cmH2O PEEP. CNPV and CPPV produced similar improvements in oxygenation over IPPV. However, cardiac output was significantly depressed by CPPV, but not by CNPV, when compared with IPPV. Although there were no differences in extravascular lung water (Qwl/dQl) between CNPV and CPPV, both significantly increased Qwl/dQl compared with IPPV (7.81 +/- 0.21 and 7.87 +/- 0.31 vs. 6.71 +/- 0.25, respectively, P less than 0.01 in both instances). CNPV and CPPV, but not IPPV, enhanced lung water accumulation in the perihilar areas where interstitial pressures may be most negative at higher lung volumes. 相似文献

Myelinated pulmonary afferents are classified as rapidly adapting receptors (RARs) or slowly adapting receptors (SARs) by their adaptation rate. Behavior of SARs varies greatly, and therefore the present study tries to further categorize SARs according to their mechanical properties. Single-fiber activity of 104 SARs was examined in anesthetized, open-chest, artificially ventilated rabbits. According to the increase or decrease in activity during removal of positive-end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), SARs were divided into two groups. In one group mean activity increased from 31 +/- 6 to 46 +/- 7 impulses per second (imp/s; n = 11); in another group mean activity decreased from 44 +/- 2 to 25 +/- 1 imp/s (n = 93). The first group of SARs has high adaptation indexes (RAR-like), which increased with inflation pressure (36 +/- 3, 44 +/- 3, and 47 +/- 3% for 10, 15, and 20 cmH(2)O, respectively; P < 0.005). Their peak activity shifted from inflation phase to deflation phase during PEEP removal. The second group of SARs has low-adaptation indexes (typical SARs), which were not affected by inflation pressure (19 +/- 1, 18 +/- 1, and 17 +/- 1% for 10, 15, and 20 cmH(2)O; P = 0. 516). Their peak activity did not shift during PEEP removal. Because there are overlaps in other characteristics, it is proposed that myelinated vagal afferents are viewed as a heterogeneous group; their behaviors are like a spectrum, where typical RARs and SARs represent two extremes of the spectrum. The receptor behavior might be determined by anatomic location and its environment. 相似文献

Exposing guinea pigs to ozone for 1wk enhances responsiveness of rapidly adapting receptors 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Acute exposure to ozone causes changes inbreathing pattern and lung function which may be caused in part bystimulation of rapidly adapting receptors (RARs). The consequences ofrepeated daily ozone exposure on RAR responsiveness are unknown,although ozone-induced changes in pulmonary function diminish withrepeated exposure. Accordingly, we investigated whether repeated daily ozone exposure diminishes the general responsiveness of RARs. Guineapigs (n = 30) were exposed to 0.5 parts/million ozone or filtered air (8 h/day for 7 days). The animalswere then anesthetized, and RAR impulse activity, dynamic compliance(Cdyn), and lung resistance were recorded at baseline and in responseto four stimuli: substance P, methacholine, hyperinflation, and removalof positive end-expiratory pressure. Repeated daily ozone exposureexaggerated RAR responses to substance P, methacholine, andhyperinflation without causing physiologically relevant effects onbaseline or substance P- and methacholine-induced changes in Cdyn andlung resistance. Because agonist-evoked changes in RAR activitypreceded Cdyn changes, the data suggest that repeated daily ozoneexposure enhances RAR responsiveness via a mechanism other than changes in Cdyn. 相似文献

We studied reflex changes in breathing elicited by graded reductions in end-expiratory lung volume (EEVL) and the vagal nerves responsible. The chests of nine dogs anesthetized with alpha-chloralose were opened, and the lungs were ventilated by a phrenic nerve-driven servo-respirator. The immediate effects of a 50% reduction in end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure (EEPtp) from control (EEVL equivalent to functional residual capacity) were to significantly increase both tidal volume (VT) and breathing frequency (f) from 0.402 +/- 0.101 to 0.453 +/- 0.091 liter (mean +/- SD) and 11.8 +/- 5.4 to 15.7 +/- 6.4 breaths/min, respectively (P less than 0.05). Further reductions in EEPtp to 0 cmH2O did not change VT but augmented f to 19.6 +/- 6.6 breaths/min (P less than 0.05). The increase in f as EEVL decreased was due entirely to a reduction in expiratory time. Vagotomy abolished these reflexes. By 90 s after reduction in EEVL, arterial PCO2 fell significantly and VT returned to or below control values. We therefore repeated these experiments in five dogs whose blood gases were controlled by cardiopulmonary bypass. There were no secondary changes in VT and by 90 s breathing pattern could be characterized as rapid and deep. In another eight dogs submitted to the same collapse protocol, we recorded action potentials from all known categories of pulmonary vagal afferents. These studies demonstrated that the changes in breathing pattern induced by a 50% reduction in EEPtp were due to a withdrawal of slowly adapting stretch receptor activity; however, continued increases in f as EEVL was reduced further were due to increases in rapidly adapting stretch receptor activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Cytokine release, small airway injury, and parenchymal damage during mechanical ventilation in normal open-chest rats. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Lung morpho-functional alterations and inflammatory response to various types of mechanical ventilation (MV) have been assessed in normal, anesthetized, open-chest rats. Measurements were taken during protective MV [tidal volume (Vt) = 8 ml/kg; positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) = 2.6 cmH(2)O] before and after a 2- to 2.5-h period of ventilation on PEEP (control group), zero EEP without (ZEEP group) or with administration of dioctylsodiumsulfosuccinate (ZEEP-DOSS group), on negative EEP (NEEP group), or with large Vt (26 ml/kg) on PEEP (Hi-Vt group). No change in lung mechanics occurred in the Control group. Relative to the initial period of MV on PEEP, airway resistance increased by 33 +/- 4, 49 +/- 9, 573 +/- 84, and 13 +/- 4%, and quasi-static elastance by 19 +/- 3, 35 +/- 7, 248 +/- 12, and 20 +/- 3% in the ZEEP, NEEP, ZEEP-DOSS, and Hi-Vt groups. Relative to Control, all groups ventilated from low lung volumes exhibited histologic signs of bronchiolar injury, more marked in the NEEP and ZEEP-DOSS groups. Parenchymal and vascular injury occurred in the ZEEP-DOSS and Hi-Vt groups. Pro-inflammatory cytokine concentration in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was similar in the Control and ZEEP group, but increased in all other groups, and higher in the ZEEP-DOSS and Hi-Vt groups. Interrupter resistance was correlated with indexes of bronchiolar damage, and cytokine levels with vascular-alveolar damage, as indexed by lung wet-to-dry ratio. Hence, protective MV from resting lung volume causes mechanical alterations and small airway injury, but no cytokine release, which seems mainly related to stress-related damage of endothelial-alveolar cells. Enhanced small airway epithelial damage with induced surfactant dysfunction or MV on NEEP can, however, contribute to cytokine production. 相似文献

Alveolar edema inactivates surfactant, and surfactant depletion causes edema by reducing lung interstitial pressure (Pis). We reasoned that surfactant repletion might reduce edema by raising Pis after acute lung injury and that positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) might facilitate this effect. One hour after tracheal administration of hydrochloric acid in 18 anesthetized dogs with transmural pulmonary capillary wedge pressure of 8 Torr, the animals were randomized into three groups: in the SURF + PEEP group, 50 mg/kg of calf lung surfactant extract (CLSE) was instilled into each main stem bronchus with 8 cmH2O of PEEP; in the SAL + PEEP group, PEEP was followed by an equal volume of saline (SAL); in the SURF group, CLSE was given without PEEP. After 5 h, edema in excised lungs (wet-to-dry weight ratios) was significantly less in the SURF + PEEP group (9.1 +/- 1.0) than in the other groups (11.3 +/- 1.8 and 11.3 +/- 1.8, respectively). In the SURF + PEEP group, pulmonary venous admixture fell by 6%; this change was different from the 7% increase in the SAL + PEEP group and 40% increase in the SURF group (P less than 0.05). Airway secretions obtained in the SURF + PEEP group had normal minimum surface tensions of 4 +/- 2 mN/m, a value much lower than in SAL + PEEP and SURF groups (32 +/- 4 and 22 +/- 7 mN/m, respectively). We conclude that surfactant normalizes surface tension and decreases transcapillary hydrostatic forces in this lung injury model, thereby reducing edema formation and improving gas exchange. These benefits occur only if surfactant is given with PEEP, allowing surfactant access to the alveoli and/or minimizing its inhibition by edema proteins. 相似文献

Although increased lung expansion markedly alters lung growth and epithelial cell differentiation during fetal life, the effect of increasing lung expansion after birth is unknown. We hypothesized that increased basal lung expansion, caused by ventilating newborn lambs with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), would stimulate lung growth and alter alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) proportions and decrease surfactant protein mRNA levels. Two groups of lambs were sedated and ventilated with either 0 cmH(2)O PEEP (controls, n = 5) or 10 cmH(2)O PEEP (n = 5) for 48 h beginning at 15 +/- 1 days after normal term birth. A further group of nonventilated 2-wk-old lambs was used for comparison. We determined wet and dry lung weights, DNA and protein content, a labeling index for proliferating cells, surfactant protein mRNA expression, and proportions of AECs using electron microscopy. Although ventilating lambs for 48 h with 10 cmH(2)O PEEP did not affect total lung DNA or protein, it significantly increased the proportion of proliferating cells in the lung when compared with nonventilated 2-wk-old controls and lambs ventilated with 0 cmH(2)O PEEP (control: 2.6 +/- 0.5%; 0 PEEP: 1.9 +/- 0.3%; 10 PEEP: 3.5 +/- 0.3%). In contrast, no differences were observed in AEC proportions or surfactant protein mRNA levels between either of the ventilated groups. This study demonstrates that increases in end-expiratory lung volumes, induced by the application of PEEP, lead to increased lung growth in mechanically ventilated 2-wk-old lambs but do not alter the proportions of AECs. 相似文献

Effect of PEEP on discharge of pulmonary C-fibers in dogs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Although positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is believed to depress cardiac output and arterial pressure by compressing the vena cava and the heart, it is unclear whether PEEP also depresses these variables by a reflex arising from an inflation-induced stimulation of pulmonary C-fibers. We therefore recorded the impulse activity of 17 pulmonary C-fibers in barbiturate-anesthetized dogs with closed chests, while we placed the expiratory outlet of a ventilator under 5-30 cmH2O. Increasing PEEP in a ramp-like manner stimulated 12 of the 17 pulmonary C-fibers, with activity increasing from 0.0 +/- 0.1 to 0.9 +/- 0.2 imp/s when end-expiratory pressure equaled 15 cmH2O. When PEEP was increased in a stepwise manner to 15-20 cmH2O and maintained at this pressure for 15 min, pulmonary C-fibers increased their firing rates, but the effect was small averaging 0.2-0.3 imp/s after the 1st min of this maneuver. We conclude that pulmonary C-fibers are unlikely to be responsible for causing much of the decreases in cardiac output and arterial pressure evoked by sustained periods of PEEP in both patients and laboratory animals. These C-fibers, however, are likely to be responsible for causing the reflex decreases in these variables evoked by sudden application of PEEP. 相似文献

We examined the steady-state response of slowly adapting pulmonary stretch receptors (SAPSRs) to reduced lung compliance in open-chest cats with lungs ventilated at eupneic rate and tidal volume (VT) and with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 3-4 cmH2O. Transient removal of PEEP decreased compliance by approximately 30% and increased transpulmonary pressure (Ptp) by 1-2.5 cmH2O. Reduction of compliance significantly decreased SAPSR discharge in deflation and caused a small increase in discharge at the peak of inflation; it had little effect on discharge averaged over the ventilatory cycle. Increasing VT to produce a comparable increase in Ptp significantly increased peak discharge. Thus unlike rapidly adapting receptors, whose discharge is increased more effectively by reduced compliance than by increased VT, SAPSRs are stimulated by increased VT but not by reduced compliance. We speculate that the most consistent effect of reduced compliance on SAPSRs (the decrease in deflation discharge) was due to the decreased time constant for deflation in the stiffer lung. This alteration in firing may contribute to the tachypnea evoked as the lungs become stiffer. 相似文献

To compare the effects of 2-, 5-, and 10-cmH2O positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on pulmonary extravascular water volume (PEWV), pulmonary blood volume (PBV), pulmonary dry weight (PDW), and distensibility, we separately ventilated perfused dogs' lungs in situ and produced pulmonary edema with oleic acid (0.06 ml/kg). Three groups were studied: I, PEEP, 5 cmH2O in both lung; II, PEEP, 2 cmH2O in one lung and 10 cmH2O in the other; and III, PEEP, same as II, but the chest was rotated to compensate for differences in heights. The PEWV and distensibility were less (P less than 0.05) in lungs exposed to 10-cmH2O than to either 2- or 5-cmH2O PEEP. After chest rotation, the difference between 10- and 2-cmH2O PEEP on PEWV was eliminated but that on distensibility was not. We conclude that 10-cmH2O PEEP 1) decreased water content because of lung volume-induced effects on intravascular hydrostatic pressure and 2) improved distensibility by recruitment of alveoli, irrespective of PEWV. 相似文献

We investigated the dose-response effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and increased lung volume on the pulmonary clearance rate of aerosolized technetium-99m-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA). Clearance of lung radioactivity was expressed as percent decrease per minute. Base-line clearance was measured while anesthetized sheep (n = 20) were ventilated with 0 cmH2O end-expiratory pressure. Clearance was remeasured during ventilation at 2.5, 5, 10, 15, or 20 cmH2O PEEP. Further studies showed stepwise increases in functional residual capacity (FRC) (P less than 0.05) measured at 0, 2.5, 5, 10, 15, and 20 cmH2O PEEP. At 2.5 cmH2O PEEP, the clearance rate was not different from that at base line (P less than 0.05), although FRC was increased from base line. Clearance rate increased progressively with increasing PEEP at 5, 10, and 15 cmH2O (P less than 0.05). Between 15 and 20 cmH2O PEEP, clearance rate was again unchanged, despite an increase in FRC. The pulmonary clearance of aerosolized 99mTc-DTPA shows a sigmoidal response to increasing FRC and PEEP, having both threshold and maximal effects. This relationship is most consistent with the hypothesis that alveolar epithelial permeability is increased by lung inflation. 相似文献

Circulatory endotoxin can stimulate vagal pulmonary C fibers and rapidly adapting receptors (RARs) in rats, but the underlying mechanisms are not clear. We investigated the involvement of hydroxyl radicals and cyclooxygenase metabolites in the stimulation of C fibers and RARs by circulatory endotoxin (50 mg/kg) in 112 anesthetized, paralyzed, and artificially ventilated rats. In rats pretreated with the vehicle, endotoxin stimulated C fibers and RARs and caused a slight increase in total lung resistance (Rl) and a decrease in dynamic lung compliance. In rats pretreated with dimethylthiourea (a hydroxyl radical scavenger) alone, indomethacin (a cyclooxygenase inhibitor) alone, or a combination of the two, C-fiber and RAR responses [C fiber: change (Delta) = -62, -79, and -85%; RAR: Delta = -80, -84, and -84%, respectively] were reduced, and the Rl response was prevented. The suppressive effects of a combination of dimethylthiourea and indomethacin on the C-fiber and RAR responses were not superior to indomethacin alone. In rats pretreated with isoproterenol (a bronchodilator), the C-fiber response was not significantly affected (Delta = -26%), the RAR response was reduced (Delta = -88%), and the Rl response was prevented. None of these pretreatments affected the dynamic lung compliance response. These results suggest that 1) both hydroxyl radicals and cyclooxygenase metabolites are involved in the endotoxin-induced stimulation of C fibers and RARs, and 2) the involvement of these two metabolites in the C-fiber stimulation may be due to their chemical effects, whereas that in the RAR stimulation may be due to their bronchoconstrictive effects. 相似文献

The effects of K+ channel blockers, such as 4-aminoprydine (4-AP) and tetraethylammonium (TEA), on the excitatory responses of rapidly adapting pulmonary stretch receptor (RAR) activity to hyperinflation (inflation volume=3 tidal volumes) were investigated in anesthetized, artificially ventilated rabbits after vagus nerve section. The changes in the RAR adaptation index (AI) produced by constant-pressure (approximately 30 cmH2O, 29.7+/-0.2 cmH2O) inflation of the lungs were also examined before and after pretreatment with 4-AP and TEA. The administration of 4-AP (0.7 and 2.0 mg/kg) potentiated hyperinflation-induced RAR stimulation in a dose-dependent manner. During hyperinflation after 2.0 mg/kg 4-AP administration the discharge of RARs showed a relatively regular firing pattern in both inflation and deflation phases. The RAR AI values during constant-pressure inflation of the lungs were significantly reduced by 4-AP treatment (2.0 mg/kg). TEA treatment (2.0 and 7.0 mg/kg) did not significantly alter either the excitatory response of RAR activity to hyperinflation or the RAR AI values seen during constant-pressure inflation of the lungs. These results suggest that during hyperinflation in in vivo experiments on rabbits, RARs may be maintained at a lower activity by opening the 4-AP-sensitive K+ channels on the receptor endings, which can determine accommodation of the receptor discharge. 相似文献

The effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on the pulmonary circulation were studied in 14 intact anesthetized dogs with oleic acid (OA) lung injury. Transmural (tm) mean pulmonary arterial pressure (Ppa)/cardiac index (Q) plots with transmural left atrial pressure (Pla) kept constant were constructed in seven dogs, and Ppa(tm)/PEEP plots with Q and Pla(tm) kept constant were constructed in seven other dogs. Q was manipulated by using a femoral arteriovenous bypass and a balloon catheter inserted in the inferior vena cava. Pla was manipulated using a balloon catheter placed by thoracotomy in the left atrium. Ppa(tm)/Q plots were essentially linear. Before OA, the linearly extrapolated pressure intercept of the Ppa(tm)/Q relationship approximated Pla(tm). OA (0.09 ml/kg into the right atrium) produced a parallel shift of the Ppa(tm)/Q relationship to higher pressures; i.e., the extrapolated pressure intercept increased while the slope was not modified. After OA, 4 Torr PEEP (5.4 cmH2O) had no effect on the Ppa(tm)/Q relationship and 10 Torr PEEP (13.6 cmH2O) produced a slight, not significant, upward shift of this relationship. Changing PEEP from 0 to 12 Torr (16.3 cmH2O) at constant Q before OA led to an almost linear increase of Ppa(tm) from 14 +/- 1 to 19 +/- 1 mmHg. After OA, Ppa(tm) increased at 0 Torr PEEP but changing PEEP from 0 to 12 Torr did not significantly affect Ppa(tm), which increased from 19 +/- 1 to 20 +/- 1 mmHg. These data suggest that moderate levels of PEEP minimally aggravate the pulmonary hypertension secondary to OA lung injury. 相似文献

During breathing the relatively high chest wall-to-lung compliance ratio of the newborn favors distortion of the respiratory system. In this study we have examined the effect of lung deformation, generated by a hydrostatic pleural surface pressure gradient, on the static (Cstat) and dynamic (Cdyn) compliance of the isolated newborn piglet lung. Seven lungs from piglets 2-7 days old have been studied in a saline-filled plethysmograph. Static pressure-volume (PV) curves were obtained by changing the volume a known amount and measuring the corresponding changes in transpulmonary pressure. Dynamic PV curves were obtained by ventilating the lung at a fixed pressure and at 20 cycles/min. These experiments were repeated in an air plethysmograph on the undeformed lung. Lung volume history was standardized prior to each maneuver by three inflations to 20-25 cmH2O. Lung collapse was avoided by applying an end-expiratory load equal to the transpulmonary pressure at functional residual capacity. Cstat was not significantly different between the deformed and undeformed lung (P greater than 0.05). Cdyn was less than Cstat in both cases (P less than 0.025) and was reduced further by deformation (P less than 0.05). We conclude that 1) peripheral airway obstruction or the viscoelastic properties of the piglet lung, or both, decrease Cdyn, and 2) deformation increases the external (PV) respiratory work by further decreasing Cdyn. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on the extravascular thermal volume of the lung (ETV) determined by the thermal-dye technique in three canine models of pulmonary edema created by injection of alpha-naphthylthiourea (ANTU) or oleic acid (OA) into the pulmonary circulation or intrabronchial instillation of hydrochloric acid (HCl). ETV was determined before, during, and after ventilation with 14 cmH2O PEEP, and final ETV was compared with the extravascular lung mass (ELM) determined postmortem. Final ETV correctly estimated ELM in 12 animals with ANTU injury, ETV/ELM = 1.04 +/- 0.13, but underestimated after HCl injury (n = 5), ETV/ELM = 0.61 +/- 0.23, and OA injury (n = 6), ETV/ELM = 0.73 +/- 0.19. Whereas PEEP had no consistent effect on extravascular thermal volume in ANTU edema, there was a reversible increase in ETV during PEEP in animals with HCl or OA injury and underestimation of ELM. The increase in ETV during PEEP averaged 9.3 +/- 3.8 ml/kg (62 +/- 42%) over the mean of the pre- and post-PEEP values after HCl injury (P less than 0.01) and 6.7 +/- 4.4 ml/kg (47 +/- 35%) after OA injury (P less than 0.02). There was an inverse correlation between the change in ETV during PEEP and the ETV/ELM ratio for animals with HCl and OA injury (r = -0.94). We conclude that PEEP produces a reversible increase in ETV in some models of lung injury by allowing for distribution of thermal indicator through a larger fraction of the lung water and that this response may be useful to detect underestimation when gravimetric measurements are not available. 相似文献

Comparison of lung protection strategies using conventional and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation. 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

This study compared pathophysiological and biochemical indexes of acute lung injury in a saline-lavaged rabbit model with different ventilatory strategies: a control group consisting of moderate tidal volume (V(T)) (10-12 ml/kg) and low positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) (4-5 cmH(2)O); and three protective groups: 1) low V(T) (5-6 ml/kg) high PEEP, 2-3 cmH(2)O greater than the lower inflection point; 2) low V(T) (5-6 ml/kg), high PEEP (8-10 cmH(2)O); and 3) high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV). The strategy using PEEP > inflection point resulted in hypotension and barotrauma. HFOV attenuated the decrease in pulmonary compliance, the lung inflammation assessed by polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration and tumor necrosis factor-alpha concentration in the alveolar space, and pathological changes of the small airways and alveoli. Conventional mechanical ventilation using lung protection strategies (low V(T) high PEEP) only attenuated the decrease in oxygenation and pulmonary compliance. Therefore, HFOV may be a preferable option as a lung protection strategy. 相似文献
