In 10 anesthetized, paralyzed, supine dogs, arterial blood gases and CO2 production (VCO2) were measured after 10-min runs of high-frequency ventilation (HFV) at three levels of mean airway pressure (Paw) (0, 5, and 10 cmH2O). HFV was delivered at frequencies (f) of 3, 6, and 9 Hz with a ventilator that generated known tidal volumes (VT) independent of respiratory system impedance. At each f, VT was adjusted at Paw of 0 cmH2O to obtain a eucapnia. As Paw was increased to 5 and 10 cmH2O, arterial PCO2 (PaCO2) increased and arterial PO2 (PaO2) decreased monotonically and significantly. The effect of Paw on PaCO2 and PaO2 was the same at 3, 6, and 9 Hz. Alveolar ventilation (VA), calculated from VCO2 and PaCO2, significantly decreased by 22.7 +/- 2.6 and 40.1 +/- 2.6% after Paw was increased to 5 and 10 cmH2O, respectively. By taking into account the changes in anatomic dead space (VD) with lung volume, VA at different levels of Paw fits the gas transport relationship for HFV derived previously: VA = 0.13 (VT/VD)1.2 VTf (J. Appl. Physiol. 60: 1025-1030, 1986). We conclude that increasing Paw and lung volume significantly decreases gas transport during HFV and that this effect is due to the concomitant increase of the volume of conducting airways.
