Fluctuations in end-expiratory lung volume during Cheyne-Stokes respiration.
We hypothesized that patients with Cheyne-Stokes respiration exhibit periodic increases in end-expiratory lung volume, mediated by changes in breath components, postinspiratory inspiratory muscle activity, or both. Calibrated inductive plethysmography revealed that 12 of 12 patients with Cheyne-Stokes respiration experienced increases in end-expiratory volume during hyperpnea: maximum 412 +/- 1...
متن کاملTough at the top: must end-expiratory lung volume make way for end-inspiratory lung volume?
A reduced exercise capacity, which limits the performance of activities of daily living and social participation, is a cardinal feature of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Breathlessness is the main limiting symptom, although, depending on the task undertaken [1], leg discomfort is prominent in a substantial minority of patients. Dyspnoea arises through the interplay of pulmonary m...
متن کاملVariability of end-expiratory lung volume in premature infants.
BACKGROUND Analysis of breath-to-breath variability of respiratory characteristics provides information on the respiratory control. In infants, the control of end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) is active and complex, and it can be altered by respiratory disease. The pattern of EELV variability may reflect the behavior of this regulatory system. OBJECTIVES We aimed to characterize EELV variabil...
متن کاملLung mechanics and end-expiratory lung volume during hypoxia in rats.
We investigated whether an hypoxia-induced increase in airway resistance mediated by vagal efferents participates in the increase in end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) observed in hypoxia. We also assessed the contribution of the end-expiratory activity of the diaphragm (DE) to this phenomenon. Therefore, we measured EELV, total lung resistance (RL), dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn), DE, and minut...
متن کاملDynamics of end expiratory lung volume after changing positive end-expiratory pressure in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients
INTRODUCTION Lung recruitment maneuvers followed by an individually titrated positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) are the key components of the open lung ventilation strategy in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The staircase recruitment maneuver is a step-by-step increase in PEEP followed by a decremental PEEP trial. The duration of each step is usually 2 minutes without physiolog...
