Tidal volume effects on surfactant treatment responses with the initiation of ventilation in preterm lambs.
We hypothesized that initiation of ventilation in preterm lambs with high volumes would cause lung injury and decrease the subsequent response to surfactant treatment. Preterm lambs were randomized to ventilation for 30 min after birth with 5 ml/kg (VT5), 10 ml/kg (VT10), or 20 ml/kg (VT20) tidal volumes and then ventilated with approximately 10 ml/kg tidal volumes to achieve arterial PCO2 valu...
متن کاملEffects of duration of positive-pressure ventilation on blood-brain barrier function in premature lambs.
We have been studying the ontogeny of the blood-brain barrier function in ovine fetuses and lambs. During these studies, we have found that the duration of ventilation also influences blood-brain barrier permeability in premature lambs. Chronically instrumented hysterotomy-delivered surfactant-treated premature lambs were studied at 90% or 137 days of gestation (n = 9). Blood-brain barrier func...
متن کاملOptimization of Variable Ventilation for Physiology, Immune Response and Surfactant Enhancement in Preterm Lambs
Preterm infants often require mechanical ventilation due to lung immaturity including reduced or abnormal surfactant. Since cyclic stretch with cycle-by-cycle variability is known to augment surfactant release by epithelial cells, we hypothesized that such in vivo mechanotransduction improves surfactant maturation and hence lung physiology in preterm subjects. We thus tested whether breath-by-b...
متن کاملSequential treatments of premature lambs with an artificial surfactant and natural surfactant.
To test an artificial surfactant in vivo, six 120-d gestational age lambs were treated at birth with a mixture of a 9:1 M ratio of [14C]dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPC) and phosphatidylglycerol at a dose of 100 mg DPC/kg. Nine other lambs were not treated. The mean PO2 values of the lambs treated with artificial surfactant were 65.7 +/- 11 mm Hg vs. 24.8 +/- 1.6 mm Hg for the untreated lam...
