PURPOSE Patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and hypercapnia present a formidable treatment challenge. We examined the use of esophageal balloon for assessment of transpulmonary pressures to guide mechanical ventilation for successful management of severe hypercapnia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with severe ARDS and hypercapnia were studied. Esophageal balloon wa...
Responses to hypercapnia and acetylcholine by newborn piglet pial arterioles are prostanoid dependent but appear to require both prostanoids and nitric oxide in juvenile pigs. We hypothesized that cerebrovascular dilatory responses become less prostanoid dependent and more NO dependent with development. Pial arteriolar responses to hypercapnia and histamine were recorded from α-chloralose-anest...
The chemoreflexes are an important mechanism for regulation of both breathing and autonomic cardiovascular function. Obesity is associated with an increased risk of alveolar hypoventilation and carbon dioxide retention, suggesting that abnormalities in chemoreflex control mechanisms may be implicated. We tested the hypothesis that chemoreflex function is altered in obesity. We compared ventilat...
Carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic cellular respiration in all aerobic life forms. PaCO2 represents the balance between the carbon dioxide produced and that eliminated. Hypocapnia remains a common - and generally underappreciated - component of many disease states, including early asthma, high-altitude pulmonary edema, and acute lung injury. Induction of hypocapnia remains a common, i...
Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) may serve to enhance pulmonary gas exchange efficiency by matching pulmonary blood flow with lung volume within each respiratory cycle. We examined the hypothesis that RSA is augmented as an active physiological response to hypercapnia. We measured electrocardiograms and arterial blood pressure during progressive hypercapnia in conscious dogs that were prepare...
Hypercapnic cerebrovascular reactivity is decreased in obstructive sleep apnoea and congestive heart disease perhaps as a result of repeated apnoeas. To test the hypothesis that repeated apnoeas blunt cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia, we studied breath hold divers and determined cerebrovascular reactivity by measuring changes in middle cerebral artery velocity (MCAV, cm s(-1)) per mmHg...
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of hypercapnia and hypoxia on apnea and nonnutritive swallowing (NNS) frequency, as well as on the coordination between NNS and phases of the respiratory cycle in newborn lambs, while taking into account the potential effects of states of alertness. Six lambs were chronically instrumented for recording electroencephalogram, eye movement...
23 24 Breathing-disordered states, such as in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which are cyclical in 25 nature, have been postulated to induce neurocognitive morbidity in both pediatric and adult 26 populations. The oscillatory nature of intermittent hypoxia, especially when chronic, may mimic 27 the paradigm of ischemia/reperfusion in that tissues and cells are exposed to episodes of low and 28 ...
There is evidence that serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] is involved in the physiological responses to hypercapnia. Serotonergic neurons represent the major cell type (comprising 15-20% of the neurons) in raphe magnus nucleus (RMg), which is a medullary raphe nucleus. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis 1) that RMg plays a role in the ventilatory and thermal responses to hyperca...
Increased ventilatory response to carbon dioxide in COPD patients following vitamin C administration
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have decreased ventilatory and cerebrovascular responses to hypercapnia. Antioxidants increase the ventilatory response to hypercapnia in healthy humans. Cerebral blood flow is an important determinant of carbon dioxide/hydrogen ion concentration at the central chemoreceptors and may be affected by antioxidants. It is unknown whether an...
