Hypocapnia increases the prevalence of hypoxia-induced augmented breaths.
Augmented breaths promote respiratory instability and have been implicated in triggering periods of sleep-disordered breathing. Since respiratory instability is well known to be exacerbated by hypocapnia, we asked whether one of the destabilizing effects of hypocapnia might be related to an increased prevalence of augmented breaths. With this question in mind, we first sought to determine wheth...
متن کاملAcetazolamide suppresses the prevalence of augmented breaths during exposure to hypoxia.
Augmented breaths, or "sighs," commonly destabilize respiratory rhythm, precipitating apneas and variability in the depth and rate of breathing, which may then exacerbate sleep-disordered breathing in vulnerable individuals. We previously demonstrated that hypocapnia is a unique condition associated with a high prevalence of augmented breaths during exposure to hypoxia; the prevalence of augmen...
متن کاملFast breaths, slow breaths, small breaths, big breaths: importance of vagal innervation in the newborn lung.
IT IS WELL ESTABLISHED that vagally innervated mechanoreceptors in the lung influence respiratory frequency and the occurrence of spontaneous sighs (augmented breaths). Are these reflexes vitally important, or do they merely “fine tune” the respiratory pattern? The remarkable vitality and long-term survival of human patients and laboratory animals after denervation associated with lung transpla...
متن کاملCarotid baroreflex function during and following voluntary apnea in humans.
Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and arterial pressure increase concomitantly during apnea, suggesting a possible overriding of arterial baroreflex inhibitory input to sympathoregulatory centers by apnea-induced excitatory mechanisms. Apnea termination is accompanied by strong sympathoinhibition while arterial pressure remains elevated. Therefore, we hypothesized that the sensitivity of...
متن کاملThe "other" respiratory effect of opioids: suppression of spontaneous augmented ("sigh") breaths.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a clinically relevant opioid on the production of augmented breaths (ABs) in unanesthetized animals breathing normal room air, using a dosage which does not depress breathing. To do this we monitored breathing noninvasively, in unrestrained animals before and after subcutaneous injection of either morphine, or a saline control. The effect ...
