Point:Counterpoint Comments Comments on Point:Counterpoint: Exercise-induced intrapulmonary shunting is imaginary vs. real IT’S TOO EARLY FOR THE SHUNT DEBATE

TO THE EDITOR: The issue whether shunt does (2) or does not (1) develop during exercise and whether shunt is responsible for the increased A-aDO2 seen in many people during exercise is developing into a methodological debate that will not be solved with the information available at this time. We do not know the in vivo bubble sizes in saline contrast echocardiography nor do we know the influenc...

Intrapulmonary shunting and pulmonary gas exchange during normoxic and hypoxic exercise in healthy humans.

Exercise-induced intrapulmonary arteriovenous shunting, as detected by saline contrast echocardiography, has been demonstrated in healthy humans. We have previously suggested that increases in both pulmonary pressures and blood flow associated with exercise are responsible for opening these intrapulmonary arteriovenous pathways. In the present study, we hypothesized that, although cardiac outpu...

Exercise-induced intrapulmonary arteriovenous shunting in healthy humans.

We hypothesized that increasing exercise intensity recruits dormant arteriovenous intrapulmonary shunts, which may contribute to the widened alveolar-arterial oxygen difference seen with exercise. Twenty-three healthy volunteers (13 men and 10 women, aged 23-48 yr) with normal lung function and a wide range of fitness (mean maximal oxygen uptake = 126% predicted; range = 78-200% predicted) were...

Intrapulmonary arteriovenous shunts of 15 m in diameter probably do not contribute to arterial hypoxemia in maximally exercising Thoroughbred horses

Manohar, Murli, and Thomas E. Goetz. Intrapulmonary arteriovenous shunts of 15 m in diameter probably do not contribute to arterial hypoxemia in maximally exercising Thoroughbred horses. J Appl Physiol 99: 224–229, 2005. First published March 17, 2005; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.01230.2004.—The present study examined whether Thoroughbred horses performing strenuous exercise exhibit intrapulmonary...

Counterpoint: Exercise-induced intrapulmonary shunting is real.

intrapulmonary shunt is miniscule is further confirmed by a recent study reporting venous admixture in very fit athletes during exercise breathing pure O 2 (18). During 100% oxygen breathing, alveolar PO 2 is elevated to such an extent that ventilation-perfusion inequality and diffusion limitation no longer contribute to the AaDO 2 —it can be explained only by right to left shunting (18). In th...
