Ten anesthetized normal dogs were each given two methacholine inhalational challenges to produce large amounts of low ventilation-perfusion (VA/Q) regions but little shunt. After one challenge, high-frequency ventilation (HFV) was applied, whereas after the other conventional mechanical ventilation (MV) was used, the order being randomized. Levels of both ventilatory modes were selected prior to challenge so as to result in similar and normal mean airway pressures and arterial PCO2 levels during control conditions. Gas exchange was assessed by both respiratory and multiple inert-gas transfer. Comparing the effect of HFV and MV, no statistically significant differences were found for lung resistance, pulmonary hemodynamic indices, arterial and mixed venous PO2, expired-arterial PO2 differences, or inert-gas data expressed as retention-excretion differences. The only variables that were different were mean airway pressure (2 cm higher during HFV, P less than 0.04) and arterial PCO2 (10 Torr higher during HFV, P less than 0.002). These results suggest that in this canine model of lung disease characterized by large amounts of low VA/Q regions, HFV is no more effective in delivering fresh gas to such regions than is MV.
