Respiratory phase locking during mechanical ventilation in anesthetized human subjects.

C Graves, L Glass, D Laporta

    The American Journal of Physiology
    |May 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Mechanical ventilators can synchronize with spontaneous breathing in humans. This 1:1 phase locking alters breathing patterns and expiratory duration, suggesting lung inflation reflexes influence respiratory control.

    Area of Science:

    • Respiratory Physiology
    • Anesthesiology
    • Mechanical Ventilation

    Background:

    • Understanding the interaction between mechanical ventilation and spontaneous breathing is crucial for optimizing patient outcomes.
    • Previous research has explored ventilator-patient synchrony, but detailed analysis of phase-locking patterns is ongoing.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the coupling patterns between mechanical ventilator rhythms and spontaneous breathing in anesthetized adult humans.
    • To determine how varying ventilator frequencies and amplitudes affect spontaneous breathing patterns and phase-locking.

    Main Methods:

    • Studied enflurane-anesthetized adult human subjects undergoing mechanical ventilation.
    • Altered spontaneous breathing by applying forced lung inflations at different frequencies and amplitudes.

  • Measured diaphragm electromyogram to analyze breathing patterns and phase relationships.

    • Main Results:

    • Observed 1:1 phase locking (ventilator and spontaneous breathing frequencies matched) within +/- 40% of spontaneous breathing frequencies.
    • Significant changes in expiratory duration were noted during 1:1 phase locking.
    • Other phase-locked (e.g., 1:2, 2:1) and non-phase-locked patterns occurred at different ventilator settings.

    Conclusions:

    • Lung inflation reflexes appear to play a role in the entrainment of spontaneous breathing by mechanical ventilation.
    • The phase relationship between inflation and inspiration is dependent on ventilator frequency and amplitude.
    • Findings contribute to understanding complex respiratory control during mechanical ventilation.
