The hemodynamic effects of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) at 60, 120, 240, and 480 breath/min, and conventional ventilation at 15 breath/min were compared in 6 anesthetized, paralyzed dogs, at 0, 10, and 20 cm H2O of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). On HFJV at the same inspired oxygen, PaCO2, and PEEP levels, hemodynamic function improved significantly.

The improvement was primarily related to a decrease in mean airway pressure, particularly at higher PEEP levels. When PEEP was applied, hemodynamic function improved even when mean airway pressure was maintained constant.

Abstract

The hemodynamic effects of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) at 60, 120, 240, and 480 breath/min, and conventional ventilation at 15 breath/min were compared in 6 anesthetized, paralyzed dogs, at 0, 10, and 20 cm H2O of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). On HFJV at the same inspired oxygen, PaCO2, and PEEP levels, hemodynamic function improved significantly. Cardiac output was higher, whereas transmural CVP and pulmonary vascular resistances were lower. The improvement was primarily related to a decrease in mean airway pressure, particularly at higher PEEP levels. When PEEP was applied, hemodynamic function improved even when mean airway pressure was maintained constant. The findings suggest that lung volume was smaller during HFJV, and/or that lung volume changes during each respiratory cycle contributed to differences in venous return and ventricular function.
