We tested the response of nine barbiturate-anesthetized dogs to high-frequency ventilation (HFV) (40-55 ml tidal volumes at 15 Hz) while measuring and controlling lung volume and blood gases. When lung volume and PCO2 were held constant, six of the nine responded to HFV by lengthening expiration. In each of these six dogs the maximal response was apnea. The response was immediate. In submaximal responses only expiration was changed; inspiratory time and peak diaphragmatic electrical activity were unaffected. There was a variable effect on abdominal muscle activity. If mean expiratory lung volume was allowed to increase at the onset of HFV, the Hering-Breuer inflation reflex added to the response. The strength of the response depended on level of anesthesia and arterial PO2. Vagotomy abolished the response in all cases. We conclude that oscillation of the respiratory system reflexly prolongs expiration via mechanoreceptors, perhaps those in the lungs.

In 10 anesthetized, paralyzed, supine dogs, arterial blood gases and CO2 production (VCO2) were measured after 10-min runs of high-frequency ventilation (HFV) at three levels of mean airway pressure (Paw) (0, 5, and 10 cmH2O). HFV was delivered at frequencies (f) of 3, 6, and 9 Hz with a ventilator that generated known tidal volumes (VT) independent of respiratory system impedance. At each f, VT was adjusted at Paw of 0 cmH2O to obtain a eucapnia. As Paw was increased to 5 and 10 cmH2O, arterial PCO2 (PaCO2) increased and arterial PO2 (PaO2) decreased monotonically and significantly. The effect of Paw on PaCO2 and PaO2 was the same at 3, 6, and 9 Hz. Alveolar ventilation (VA), calculated from VCO2 and PaCO2, significantly decreased by 22.7 +/- 2.6 and 40.1 +/- 2.6% after Paw was increased to 5 and 10 cmH2O, respectively. By taking into account the changes in anatomic dead space (VD) with lung volume, VA at different levels of Paw fits the gas transport relationship for HFV derived previously: VA = 0.13 (VT/VD)1.2 VTf (J. Appl. Physiol. 60: 1025–1030, 1986). We conclude that increasing Paw and lung volume significantly decreases gas transport during HFV and that this effect is due to the concomitant increase of the volume of conducting airways.

Alveolar ventilation during high-frequency ventilation (HFV) was estimated from the washout of the positron-emitting isotope (nitrogen-13-labeled N2) from the lungs of anesthetized paralyzed supine dogs by use of a positron camera. HFV was delivered at a mean lung volume (VL) equal to the resting functional residual capacity with a ventilator that generated tidal volumes (VT) between 30 and 120 ml, independent of the animal's lung impedance, at frequencies (f) from 2 to 25 Hz, with constant inspiratory and expiratory flows and an inspiration-to-expiration time ratio of unity. Specific ventilation (SPV), which is equivalent to ventilation per unit of compartment volume, was found to follow closely the relation: SPV = 1.9(VT/VL)2.1 X f. From this relation and from arterial PCO2 measurements we found an expression for the normocapnic settings of VT and f, given VL and body weight (W). We found that the VL was an important normalizing parameter in the sense that VT/VL yielded a better correlation (r = 0.91) with SPV/f than VT/W (r = 0.62) or VT alone (r = 0.8).
