Background/aims Impairment of respiratory muscle function is common in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing haemodialysis, and is manifested by decreased oxygenation and physical function. The purpose of this study was to analyse the impact of training with incentive spirometer on mobility of the diaphragm, arterial blood gases and functional capacity in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing haemodialysis. Methods A pre–post research design was implemented. A total of 30 patients undergoing haemodialysis for chronic kidney disease received incentive spirometer training intradialysis three sessions a week for 8 weeks. Outcome measures were the amount of diaphragmatic mobility measured by ultrasonography, the levels of arterial partial pressure of oxygen, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide, oxygen saturation percentages and the distance walked in 6 minutes. Results Significant improvement from pre-treatment to post-treatment measurements occurred in all outcome measures, with P<0.05. Conclusions Incentive spirometer training should be recommended to be a part of daily routine of patients with chronic kidney disease who are undergoing haemodialysis to decrease respiratory and physical function impairments.

The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effects of unilateral and bilateral jugular vein occlusion via temporary surgical ligature on arterial blood gases in horses during treadmill exercise. Six horses performed three exercise tests (ETs). ET1, considered to be the control, was performed in horses without jugular occlusion. ET2 and ET3 were performed in horses with unilateral and bilateral occlusion via temporary surgical ligature of the jugular veins, respectively. The partial pressure of oxygen (PO2) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) were determined. The PO2 showed decreased values during ET2 and ET3, suggesting that horses presenting acute jugular thrombophlebitis may have airflow limitations when exercising.

Clinical Consequences

AbstractPost cardiac arrest syndrome is associated with high morbidity and mortality, which is related not only to a poor neurological outcome but also to respiratory and cardiovascular dysfunctions. The control of gas exchange, and in particular oxygenation and carbon dioxide levels, is fundamental in mechanically ventilated patients after resuscitation, as arterial blood gases derangement might have important effects on the cerebral blood flow and systemic physiology.In particular, the pathophysiological role of carbon dioxide (CO2) levels is strongly underestimated, as its alterations quickly affect also the changes of intracellular pH, and consequently influence metabolic energy and oxygen demand. Hypo/hypercapnia, as well as mechanical ventilation during and after resuscitation, can affect CO2 levels and trigger a dangerous pathophysiological vicious circle related to the relationship between pH, cellular demand, and catecholamine levels. The developing hypocapnia can nullify the beneficial effects of the hypothermia. The aim of this review was to describe the pathophysiology and clinical consequences of arterial blood gases and pH after cardiac arrest.According to our findings, the optimal ventilator strategies in post cardiac arrest patients are not fully understood, and oxygen and carbon dioxide targets should take in consideration a complex pattern of pathophysiological factors. Further studies are warranted to define the optimal settings of mechanical ventilation in patients after cardiac arrest.

Calming Effect

Pranayama is a Yogic breathing practice which is known experientially to produce a profound calming effect on the mind. In an experiment designed to determine whether the mental effects of this practice were accompanied by changes in the arterial blood gases, arterial blood was drawn from 10 trained individuals prior to and immediately after Pranayama practice. No significant changes in arterial blood gases were noted after Pranayama. A neural mechanism for the mental effects of this practice is proposed.

Syncytial Virus

Apnea is a common complication in infants infected by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). A recent study has shown that intranasal inoculation of RSV in conscious weanling rats strengthens the apneic responses to right atrial injection of capsaicin (CAP), leading to 66% mortality. The objectives of the present study were to determine 1) whether RSV infection changes baseline minute ventilation (V̇e) and arterial blood gases in anesthetized rats; 2) what the effects of RSV infection are on the respiratory responses to CAP; and 3) whether the RSV-strengthened apneic responses are age dependent. Our experiments were conducted in anesthetized and spontaneously breathing rats divided into four groups of weanling and adult rats that received either intranasal inoculation of RSV or virus-free medium. Two days after RSV infection (0.7 ml/kg), animal blood gases, baseline V̇e, and V̇e responses to right atrial injection of three doses of CAP (4, 16, and 64 μg/kg) were measured and compared among the four groups. Our results showed that RSV infection increased respiratory frequency (∼25%, P < 0.05) in weanling but not adult rats, with little effect on arterial blood gases. RSV infection amplified the apneic responses to CAP in weanling but not adult rats, characterized by increases in the initial (40%) and the longest apneic duration (650%), the number of apneic episodes (139%), and the total duration of apneas (60%). These amplifications led to 50% mortality ( P < 0.05). We conclude that RSV infection increases respiratory frequency and strengthens the apneic responses to CAP only in anesthetized weanling but not adult rats.

Placental Blood Flow

Successful fetal cardiac bypass might allow prenatal correction of some congenital heart defects. However, previous studies have shown that fetal cardiac bypass may result in impaired fetal gas exchange after bypass. To investigate the etiology of this impairment, we determined whether fetal cardiac bypass causes a redistribution of fetal regional blood flows and, if so, whether a vasodilator (sodium nitroprusside) can prevent this redistribution. We also determined the effects of fetal cardiac bypass with and without nitroprusside on fetal arterial blood gases and hemodynamics. Eighteen fetal sheep were studied in utero under general anesthesia. Seven fetuses underwent bypass without nitroprusside, six underwent bypass with nitroprusside, and five were no-bypass controls. Blood flows were determined using radionuclide-labeled microspheres. After bypass without nitroprusside, placental blood flow decreased by 25–60%, whereas cardiac output increased by 15–25%. Flow to all other fetal organs increased or remained unchanged. Decreased placental blood flow after bypass was accompanied by a fall in PO2 and a rise in PCO2. Nitroprusside improved placental blood flow, cardiac output, and arterial blood gases after bypass. Thus fetal cardiac bypass causes a redistribution of regional blood flow away from the placenta and toward the other fetal organs. Nitroprusside partially prevents this redistribution. Methods of improving placental blood flow in the postbypass period may prove critical to the success of fetal cardiac bypass.

Fossorial Species

As a fossorial species the hamster differs in its natural habitat from the rat. Experiments were performed to determine possible differences between the ventilatory responses of awake hamsters and rats to acute exposure to hypoxic and hypercapnic environments. Ventilation was measured with the barometric method while the animals were conscious and unrestrained in a sealed plethysmograph. Tidal volume (VT), respiratory frequency (f), and inspiratory (TI) and expiratory (TE) time measurements were made while the animals breathed normoxic (30% O2), hypercapnic (5% CO2), or hypoxic (10% O2) gases. Arterial blood gases were also measured in both species while exposed to each of these atmospheric conditions. During inhalation of normoxic gas, the VT/100 g was greater and f was lower in the hamster than in the rat. Overall minute ventilation (VE/100 g) in the hamster was less than in the rat, which was reflected in the lower PO2 and higher PCO2 of the hamster arterial blood. When exposed to hypercapnia, the hamster increased VE/100 g solely through VT; however, the VE/100 g increase was significantly less than in the rat. In response to hypoxia, the hamster and rat increased VE/100 g by similar amounts; however, the hamster VE/100 g increase was through f alone, whereas the rat increased both VT/100 g and f. Mean airflow rates (VT/TI) were no different in the hamster or rat in each gas environment; therefore most of the ventilatory responses were the result of changes in TI and TE and respiratory duty cycle (TI/TT).
