In a clinical trial, 103 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting from May, 1999, to December, 2001 with hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were retrospectively assigned to one of two groups: group I (n = 45)--patients 65 years of age and older (68.0 +/- 0.5), group II (n = 58)--patients 45-50 years of age (48.2 +/- 0.2). The following parameters were recorded: haemodynamic--with thermodilution method (SMU--612, Hellige), blood gases (OMNI-6, Austria). Measurements were performed 7 times: (1) before surgery, (2) before CPB, (3) after CPB, (4, 5, 6, 7)--1, 3, 9, 12 hours after surgery. Indexes of oxygen delivery and consumption, oxygen utilization coefficient and anion gap were calculated. Obtained results were statistically analyzed using appropriate t-test and chi2-test for categorical variables. Data are expressed as mean +/- SE. There were no significant differences between the groups in all stages of examination, p > 0.05. In elderly group both oxygen delivery and consumption were lower then in younger one, thus the coefficient of oxygen utilization did not differ between groups. Therefore the surgery with CPB seems to be inrelated to adverse changes on oxygen transport in elderly patients, and its dynamic was similar in patients over 65 years of age and younger group. 相似文献

Aim: Surgical-site infections are very serious complications of cardiac operations. Use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with profound physiological changes, which affects the pharmacokinetic behaviour of prophylactic antibiotics. The aim of this study was to monitor tissue concentrations of cefuroxime in peripheral tissue (skeletal muscle) during cardiac surgery using CPB by means of a microdialysis. Methods: Eleven adult patients operated on using CPB were included in the study. Cefuroxime was the prophylactic antibiotic and study drug given. Microdialysis was performed by probe CMA 60 inserted into the patient's left deltoid muscle. Samples of dialysates were collected at intervals: before CPB, each 30 minutes of CPB and at the end of CPB. Samples of blood were collected at intervals: incision, start of CPB, each 30 minutes of CPB, at the end of CPB and at the end of surgery. Results: The mean (+/- S.D.) concentrations of cefuroxime in peripheral tissue were 105.4+/-41.1, 81.7+/-32.8, 74.6+/-26.0, 70.4+/-34.7, 60.5+/-27.2, 138.0+/-42.6 (mg l(-1)). Total plasma concentrations of cefuroxime were 154.4+/-41.6, 73.3+/-20.7, 67.1+/-20.4, 59.2+/-21.0, 49.0+/-16.4, 110.9+/-33.6 (mg l(-1)) and concentrations of free plasma fraction were 110.7+/-37.1, 62.2+/-18.8, 58.9+/-18.6, 48.4+/-16.6, 41.7+/-15.6, 97.6+/-28.6 (mg l(-1)). The plasma and tissue concentrations exceed throughout the operation time the minimum inhibitory concentration for most common suspected pathogens in cardiac surgery. Conclusions: Results show that CPB can modify the time course of cefuroxime tissue and plasma concentrations. Microdialysis is suitable for antibiotic tissue measurement in cardiac surgery. 相似文献

Plasma adenosine and hypoxemia in patients with sleep apnea 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Severe hypoxemia causes ATP depletion and increased adenosine production in many body tissues. Therefore we hypothesized that patients with sleep apnea and severe hypoxemia during sleep have higher adenosine production and higher plasma adenosine levels than patients without hypoxemia. Twelve patients with sleep apnea and six normal volunteers had plasma adenosine levels measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. Each patient with sleep apnea had a polysomnograph sleep study with oxyhemoglobin saturation continuously recorded. Five of 12 patients with sleep apnea had both sleep apnea and severe hypoxemia during sleep. These patients with severe nocturnal hypoxemia had significantly higher plasma adenosine levels (means +/- SD 9.7 +/- 5.5 X 10(-8) M) than either a group of six normal volunteers (3.5 +/- 0.7 X 10(-8) M) or a group of seven patients with sleep apnea without hypoxemia at night (3.1 +/- 1.5 X 10(-8) M) (P less than 0.01). In addition plasma adenosine levels were significantly correlated with two indexes of nocturnal hypoxemia (desaturation index rs = 0.79, and median oxyhemoglobin saturation during sleep rs = -0.75, P less than 0.01). Plasma adenosine markedly fell to a normal level in the only two patients with sleep apnea who had successful treatment of their multiple apneas and accompanying severe hypoxemia during sleep. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: While statins are increasingly used in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), the anti-inflammatory effects of individual statins, within the context of various treatment regimes, need further examination. The present study evaluates the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of the short-term, preoperative and intensive postoperative use of pravastatin in CPB. METHOD: Forty three patients undergoing CPB were enrolled in a randomized, prospective clinical study. One group (n = 21), received pravastatin, the other (n = 22) did not. Patients in the pravastatin group received one dose of 40 mg per day for nine days, starting 48 hours before CPB, with an additional dose of 40 mg one hour after surgery. Plasma levels of selected inflammatory mediators were measured at baseline and tracked systematically. RESULTS: Pravastatin reduced postoperative interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels significantly at 24 and 48 hours, and at seven days. Mean +/- SD values, for treated versus untreated patients were: at 24 hours, 159.5 +/- 58.5 versus 251.2 +/- 53.0 pg/mL (p < 0.001); at 48 hours, 81.9 +/- 31.5 versus 194.2 +/- 56.3 pg/mL (p < 0.001); and at seven days, 16.4 +/- 7.2 versus 30.8 +/- 12.6 (p < 0.001). C-reactive protein (CRP) decreased significantly on the seventh postoperative day, when plasma levels were 3.6 +/- 1.1 in the treated patients versus 8.2 +/- 2.1 mg/dL in the controls (p < 0.001). No changes in plasma IL-1 and TNF-alpha were found during entire study. CONCLUSIONS: Pravastatin induced a precocious modulation of IL-6 expression and a later reduction of plasma CRP levels. Pravastatin;s effects on the expression of these pivotal inflammatory mediators strongly support its well-timed use in CPB. 相似文献

The effect of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using high dose fentanyl anaesthesia on the concentrations of plasma arginine vasopressin (pAVP), serum electrolytes and osmolality was studied in 12 patients by repeated sampling up to 4th postoperative day. These values were also followed in another 20 patients for the first postoperative day. Fentanyl abolished the pAVP response often seen in major operations but not that produced by CBP. The pAVP concentration 4.8 +/- 0.8 pg/ml immediately after sternotomy increased to 27.2 +/- 1.5 pg/ml (P less than 0.001) after 5-10 minutes on CPB. By the 4th postoperative day the pAVP levels had reached normal values. The main reason for the elevated pAVP concentrations seems to be the onset of CPB, which provokes a fall in mean arterial pressure leading to pAVP release. 相似文献

Effects of epidural morphine and transdermal fentanyl analgesia on physiology and behaviour after abdominal surgery in pigs 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The objective of this work was to evaluate the physiological and behavioural effects of opioid analgesic treatment in pigs subjected to abdominal surgery. Ten Swedish Landrace x Yorkshire pigs (20 +/- 4 kg b.w.) were submitted for intestinal cannulation. The pigs were allocated into two groups during one preoperative, one surgical and two postoperative days. All pigs were anaesthetized with medetomidine, tiletamine and zolazepam. One group was treated with epidural morphine (0.1 mg/kg) preoperatively, and transdermal fentanyl patches (50 microg/kg/h) were applied behind the ear immediately after surgery. The other group received epidural saline (equivalent volume) and placebo patches. All pigs were regularly weighed and clinically examined and repeated blood samples were analysed for serum concentrations of cortisol, beta-endorphin and fentanyl. Pre- and postoperative behaviours were evaluated by a swine specialist blinded to the treatment, three times a day, and were also videotape recorded for a total of 84 h per pig. No differences in behaviour were noted by the observer. During the first postoperative 12 h, treated pigs did not differ in activity compared with preoperative recordings, while untreated pigs were found to be less active. The treated group started to show interest in eating immediately after anaesthesia recovery, whereas the placebo group did not. During the 12-60 h postoperative period, the treated group had lower activity levels compared with the preoperative levels, which were similar to those in the placebo group. Treated pigs gained 0.5 +/- 0.2 kg during the subsequent two postoperative days, whereas the untreated pigs lost weight throughout the experiment. Cortisol concentration differed immediately after the surgery: Group P had 325 +/- 120 nmol/L and Group M 159 +/- 49 nmol/L. beta-endorphin concentration did not differ between groups. The highest serum fentanyl concentration (0.37 +/- 0.3 ng/mL) was measured 24 h postoperatively. Preoperative epidural morphine in combination with postoperative transdermal fentanyl resulted in earlier return to normal activity levels and an immediate weight gain after surgery. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is evident in erythrocytes as well as plasma in patients undergoing heart surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyse the level and progression of oxidative stress, in both plasma and erythrocytes, during heart surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty two patients undergoing cardiac surgery and considered to present a high/severe level of surgical risk were selected. We took five blood samples at different times during the cardiac surgery and analysed TBARS, alpha-tocopherol, coenzyme Q and retinol in plasma and TBARS (baseline levels and induced by Fe2+-ascorbate oxidation), alpha-tocopherol, coenzyme Q and catalase, superoxide dismutase and gluthatione peroxidase activity in erythrocytes. RESULTS: Plasma results shown a decrease in both alpha-tocopherol and retinol concentration after starting CPB with respect to the reference level (13.6 +/- 1.5 nmol ml(-1) vs. 22.0 +/- 3.0 nmol ml(-1) and 1.2 +/- 0.1nmol ml(-1) vs. 1.8 +/- 0.2 nmol ml(-1), respectively (p < 0.05)). In comparison, in erythrocytes, all antioxidants, both enzymatic and non-enzymatic, increased in activity or concentration after starting CPB. Erythrocyte TBARS, both baseline levels and induced levels, followed a similar pattern, with an increase after starting CPB with respect to the reference level (3.9 +/- 0.6 nmol mg(-1) of protein vs. 2.3 +/- 0.2 nmol mg(-1) of protein and 10.6 +/- 0.8 nmol mg(-1) of protein vs. 6.7+/- 0.6 nmol mg(-1) of protein, respectively (p < 0.05)). CONCLUSION: These results reveal an increase in oxidative stress after CPB, both in plasma and erythrocytes, and although the organism is capable of attenuating this stress by means of various antioxidative defence mechanisms, there is an increased possibility of post-CPB complications and thus of mortality. 相似文献

To identify the effects of acute starvation on endogenous opioids in man, plasma beta-endorphin (beta-EP) was measured in 17 patients before, during and after fasting. Patients were assigned a posteriori into two groups: group A, comprised of 11 patients able to tolerate 5-7 days of fasting, and group B, comprised of 6 patients able to tolerate 10 days of fasting. Changes in plasma beta-EP, serum cortisol, circulating nutritional markers, and their relative levels were assessed on the 5th and 10th days of fasting, and on the 5th and 10th days of the refeeding period. Beta-EP had increased by the 5th day (group A: 4.74 +/- 0.42 to 6.91 +/- 0.65 pmol/l, p less than 0.01; group B: 3.60 +/- 0.48 to 5.14 +/- 0.22 pmol/l, p less than 0.05, and remained at 5.05 +/- 0.65 pmol/l on the 10th day (group B: 0.05 less than p less than 0.1) during fasting. Group B had lower levels of plasma beta-EP on the 5th day of fasting than group A (p less than 0.05). However, serum cortisol levels changed similarly in both groups. Plasma beta-EP showed no significant correlation with either the percentage of body weight lost or the body mass index (kg/m2) over this study period. These findings indicate that plasma beta-EP is elevated in the early phase of fasting, while not directly being associated with body weight changes. Plasma beta-EP is lower and less activated in subjects who are able to tolerate fasting for longer periods. 相似文献

We investigated the change of plasma cytokines concentrations in elderly patients during lower abdominal surgery. Plasma interleukin (IL-)6 concentrations (68.0+/-15.4 and 36.1+/-20.7 pg/ml) in elderly patients at 24 h and at 3 days after surgery were significantly higher than those (35.1+/-21.5 and 18.6+/-10.6 pg/ml) of young adults. Plasma IL-6 concentrations (92.3+/- 31.9 pg/ml) in elderly patients anesthetized with propofol and fentanyl were significantly higher at the end of the operation than that (57.9+/-36.7 pg/ml) of elderly patients anesthetized with sevoflurane and fentanyl. In conclusion, elderly patients have an increased and delayed IL-6 response to surgical trauma compared with young adults. Plasma IL-6 production after surgical trauma in elderly patients with total intravenous anesthesia with propofol was significantly higher than that in elderly patients with sevoflurane anesthesia. 相似文献

Adult patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery are subjected to increased oxidative stress and show a spectrum of lung injury. Increased levels of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) are often seen during episodes of oxidative stress, such as the use of high FiO2s, and this molecule plays a key role in the formation of highly damaging oxidants such as the hydroxyl radical. Oxidative damage to plasma proteins was assessed by measuring free thiol groups, and antioxidant protection against H2O2 by measuring catalase activity. CPB patients (n = 39) receiving either 100% or 50% oxygen at the end of bypass were studied by measuring levels of H2O2 in breath condensate and levels of catalase in their plasma, and comparing these to pre-bypass levels. Post-bypass, all CPB patients exhaled significantly lower levels of H2O2 (P < 0.0001) at a time when they had significantly increased activity (0.809 +/- 0.11 versus 1.688 +/- 0.18 U/mg protein) of catalase in their plasma. There were no significant differences in these parameters between the 100% and 50% oxygen groups. At a time when oxidative stress is greatest, there appears to be a corresponding plasma increase in the antioxidant catalase. Whether this change is fortuitous or a response to oxidative stress is at present under consideration. 相似文献

Perturbation of coronary blood flow (CF) is an important contributor to myocardium-related complications. The study was primarily designed to assess the impact of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery on CF by aid of transthoracic Doppler echocardiography. Changes in CF after off-pump coarctation surgery were also studied. All ultrasounds were performed before and 5 +/- 1 days after surgery. Eighteen children underwent CPB surgery of ventricular left-to-right shunts at the mean age of 6 mo, while off-pump surgery (aortic coarctectomy) was undertaken at the mean age of 10 days in 12 children. After CPB surgery, both left anterior descending coronary artery mean diameter and basal CF increased from 1.7 +/- 0.3 to 2.1 +/- 0.4 mm (P = 0.001) and 27 +/- 10 to 47 +/- 15 ml/min (P = 0.0001), respectively. These two coronary variables decreased after off-pump coarctectomy: left anterior descending coronary artery mean diameter from 1.8 +/- 0.1 to 1.7 +/- 0.1 mm (P = 0.06), and CF from 44 +/- 12 to 25 +/- 8 ml/min (P = 0.001). The findings are in keeping with the hypothesis that the previously reported impairment of coronary flow reserve after CPB surgery could be due to increase in basal coronary flow after CPB. Off-pump coarctectomy seems to have little impact on CF, as the postsurgical decline in flow in these patients seems to relate to the reduction in cardiac pressure afterload. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition on mesenteric vascular function and metabolism in an experimental model of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with cardiac arrest. Twelve anesthetized dogs underwent 90-min hypothermic CPB. After 60 min of cardiac arrest, reperfusion was started for 40 min following application of either saline vehicle (control, n = 6) or a potent PARP inhibitor, PJ-34 (10 mg/kg iv bolus and 0.5 mg.kg(-1).min(-1) infusion for 20 min, n = 6). PJ-34 led to better recovery of cardiac output (2.2 +/- 0.1 vs. 1.8 +/- 0.2 l/min in control) and mesenteric blood flow (175 +/- 38 vs. 83 +/- 4 ml/min, P < 0.05 vs. control) after reperfusion. The impaired vasodilator response of the superior mesenteric artery to acetylcholine, assessed in the control group after CPB (-32.8 +/- 3.3 vs. -57.6 +/- 6.6% at baseline, P < 0.05), was improved by PJ-34 (-50.3 +/- 3.6 vs. -54.3 +/- 4.1% at baseline, P < 0.05 vs. control). Although plasma nitrate/nitrite concentrations were not significantly different between groups, mesenteric nitric oxide synthase activity was increased in the PJ-34 group (P < 0.05). Moreover, the treated group showed a marked attenuation of mesenteric venous plasma myeloperoxidase levels after CPB compared with the control group (75 +/- 1 vs. 135 +/- 9 ng/ml, P < 0.05). Pharmacological PARP inhibition protects against development of post-CPB mesenteric vascular dysfunction by improving hemodynamics, restoring nitric oxide production, and reducing neutrophil adhesion. 相似文献

Evaluation of fentanyl transdermal patches in rabbits: blood concentrations and physiologic response
In the study reported here, we sought to evaluate transdermal fentanyl patches for their ability to achieve detectable plasma concentrations with minimal adverse effects in New Zealand White rabbits. Fentanyl patches were applied to the dorsum after removing hair either by clipping or by application of a depilatory agent. Blood samples were collected every 12 h for a total of 96 h (24 h after patch removal) for determination of plasma fentanyl concentration. At those times, rabbits were assessed for changes in body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body weight. In rabbits with clipped hair, where rapid hair re-growth was not a mitigating factor, mean plasma fentanyl concentration reached a mean (+/- SEM) peak of 1.11 +/- 0.32 ng/ml at 24 h, decreased to 0.77 +/- 0.21 ng/ml at 72 h, and was negligible at 96 h. In rabbits with depilated hair, peak concentration was obtained at 12 h (6.7 +/- 0.57 ng/ml) and decreased gradually to 0.27 +/- 0.06 ng/ml at 72 h. In a second group of fentanyl-treated rabbits in which hair started growing back within 24 h, plasma fentanyl concentration was not detectable. Control and fentanyl-treated rabbits with clipped hair had no effect from the experimental manipulations other than slight loss in body weight. In the depilatory group, two rabbits appeared moderately sedated during the initial 12-h period, and had decreased respiratory rate for 24 h. In conclusion, rabbits tolerate the transdermal fentanyl patch well. Hair regrowth in rabbits may present a complicating factor that impedes dermal absorption of fentanyl. The application of a depilatory agent lead to early and rapid absorption of fentanyl causing undue sedation in some rabbits and lack of sustained plasma concentrations for the desired three-day period. 相似文献

Arousal is an important protective mechanism that aids in the resolution of obstructive sleep apnea in adults and children, but its role in neonatal apnea has not been investigated. The primary aim of the present study was to determine the role of arousal in the termination of apnea in preterm infants. Videorecording was used to identify spontaneous behavioral arousal in a group of healthy full-term (n = 7) and preterm (n = 10) infants before and during polygraphic monitoring of cardiorespiratory variables and in a group of preterm infants with apnea (n = 10) during similar polygraphic monitoring. Spontaneous arousal rates (mean +/- SE) in full-term infants before and during polygraphic monitoring were 0.18 +/- 0.03 and 0.23 +/- 0.07 episodes/min, respectively. Corresponding values in nonapneic preterm infants were 0.24 +/- 0.03 and 0.24 +/- 0.02 episodes/min. In apneic preterm infants, mean spontaneous arousal rate during polygraphic recording was 0.26 +/- 0.02, but it was considerably higher during apneic sleep periods (0.59 +/- 0.17) than during nonapneic sleep periods (0.25 +/- 0.01). The frequency of occurrence of arousal was significantly higher (P less than 0.005) in long vs. short apnea, mixed vs. central apnea, and severe vs. mild apnea. Although a clear association between arousal and apneic resolution was observed in preterm infants, lack of arousal responses in a large number of apneic episodes suggests that behavioral arousal is not essential for the termination of apnea in these infants. 相似文献

Forty male patients: group A-autooxygenation and group B-bubble oxygenator used in extracorporeal circulation (ECC) were studied to evaluate the haemocompatibility of 2 types of ECC. The Plt count dropped significantly in group B patients: -73% of initial value vs only -27% in group A, (p less than 0.001). In both groups a rise in BTG was shown, but higher in group B, p less than 0.001. At the end of CPB aggregation decreased only slightly in group A after epinephrine and 4-ADP, and decreased hardly in group B with the significant difference between two groups (p less than 0.02 and p less than 0.001, respectively). In group A the mean blood loss was 278 +/- 49 ml/m2 and 483 +/- 67 ml/m2 in group B, p less than 0.001. The mean blood transfusion in group A and B was 198 +/- 82 ml/m2 and 427 +/- 85 ml/m2, respectively (p less than 0.001). We are positive that the elimination of artificial oxygenator from the ECC diminished markedly the decline in Plt count and Plt activation during CPB. 相似文献

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) has a variety of extra-intestinal actions which are typical of the body's reaction to stress, such as lipolysis, glycogenolysis and modulation of anterior pituitary hormone secretion. Serial VIP plasma concentrations in patients undergoing major laparotomies were determined. The influence of the mu-receptor agonist, fentanyl, on intra-operative changes was investigated and compared to a control group receiving halothane anesthesia. Plasma levels of typical "stress hormones" cortisol and catecholamines were also monitored for additional information on the extent of perioperative stress. VIP levels increased intraoperatively in the halothane group from 5.9 +/- 4.6 to 15.3 +/- 5.3 pmol/l. Cortisol and catecholamine levels showed a similar increase. The intraoperative VIP increase in the fentanyl group was significantly smaller: 3.5 +/- 1.9 to 7.3 +/- 3.6 pmol/l. Anesthesia itself did not affect VIP concentrations as shown by constant levels during a 30 minute preoperative control period. The observed increases of VIP plasma concentration are thought to reflect a possible role for VIP in the hormonal metabolic response to stress. The attenuation of the increase by fentanyl might be due to a direct opiate action on VIP release. 相似文献

Sleep apnea occurs in humans and experimental animals. We examined whether it also arises in adult mice. Ventilation in male adult 129/Sv mice was recorded concomitantly by electroencephalograms and electromyograms for 6 h by use of body plethysmography. Apnea was defined as cessation of plethysmographic signals for longer than two respiratory cycles. While mice breathed room air, 32.3 +/- 6.9 (mean +/- SE, n = 5) apneas were observed during sleep but not in quiet awake periods. Sleep apneas were further classified into two types. Postsigh apneas occurred exclusively during slow-wave sleep (SWS), whereas spontaneous apneas arose during both SWS and rapid eye movement sleep. Compared with room air (9.1 +/- 1.4/h of SWS), postsigh apneas were more frequent in hypoxia (13.7 +/- 2.1) and less frequent in hyperoxia (3.6 +/- 1.7) and hypercapnia (2.8 +/- 2.1). Our data indicated that significant sleep apnea occurs in normal adult mice and suggested that the mouse could be a promising experimental model with which to study the genetic and molecular basis of respiratory regulation during sleep. 相似文献

Serum C-peptide responses to glucagon and daily urine C-peptide excretion in successive periods of different treatment in two groups of patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) (mean interval between two tests less than 1 month) were compared. In group A patients (n = 8), the glycemic control was improved after transferring the treatment from sulfonylurea (SU) to insulin (fasting plasma glucose: SU: 192 +/- 47, insulin: 127 +/- 21 mg/dl, mean +/- S.D., p less than 0.01). Fasting serum C-peptide immunoreactivity (CPR) was significantly lower at the period of insulin treatment (SU: 1.93 +/- 1.01, insulin: 1.47 +/- 0.79 ng/ml, p less than 0.05), but there was no difference in the increase in serum CPR (maximal--fasting) (delta serum CPR) during glucagon stimulation in the two periods of treatment (SU: 1.70 +/- 0.72, insulin: 1.47 +/- 0.98 ng/ml). In group B patients (n = 7), there was no significant difference in glycemic control after transferring the treatment from insulin to SU (fasting plasma glucose: insulin: 127 +/- 24, SU: 103 +/- 13 mg/dl). Fasting serum CPR was significantly lower during the period of insulin treatment (insulin: 1.39 +/- 0.64, SU: 2.21 +/- 0.86 ng/ml, p less than 0.025), but delta serum CPR during glucagon stimulation still showed no significant difference between the two periods (insulin: 1.97 +/- 1.16, SU: 2.33 +/- 1.57 ng/ml).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We investigated the effect of age on breathing and total pulmonary resistance (RL) during sleep by studying elderly (>65 yr) and young (25-38 yr) people without sleep apnea (EN and YN, respectively) matched for body mass index (BMI). To determine the impact of sleep apnea on age-related changes in breathing, we studied elderly and young apneic patients (EA and YA, respectively) matched for apnea and BMI. In all groups (n = 11), breathing during periods of stable sleep was analyzed to evaluate the intrinsic variability of respiratory control mechanisms. In the absence of sleep apnea, the variability of the breathing was similar in the elderly and young [mean (+/- SD) coefficient of variation (CV) of tidal volume (VT); wake: EN 21.0 +/- 14.9%, YN 14.7 +/- 5.5%; sleep: EN 14.0 +/- 6.0%; YN 11.5 +/- 6.4%]. In patients with sleep apnea, breathing during stable sleep was more irregular, but there were no age-related differences (CV of VT; wake: EA 22.0 +/- 11.6%, YA 16.7 +/- 11.3%; sleep: EA 32.8 +/- 24.9%, YA 25.2 +/- 16.3%). In addition, EN tended to have a higher RL (n = 6, RL midinspiration, wake: EN 7.1 +/- 3.0; YN 9.1 +/- 6.4 cmH(2)O. l(-1). s, sleep: EN 17.5 +/- 11.7; YN 9.8 +/- 2.0 cmH(2)O. l(-1). s). We conclude that aging per se does not contribute to the intrinsic variability of respiratory control mechanisms, although there may be a lower probability of finding elderly people without respiratory instability. 相似文献
