To investigate the changes in diaphragm electromyogram (EMG) during the course of severe loaded breathing, we subjected five conscious adult sheep to inspiratory flow resistive breathing (resistance greater than 150 cmH2O X l-1 X s) for up to 2-3 h and studied the total EMG power per breath (iEMG) and the EMG power per unit time after dividing the duration of EMG activity within each breath into three equal parts (iEMG1, iEMG2, and iEMG3). Both total breath iEMG and transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) increased, remained at a high level for a certain period of time, and then started to fall. A change in the pattern of iEMG within a breath was observed during loaded breathing. The increase in total-breath iEMG was associated mostly with an increase in iEMG3, or the last part of the EMG power within each inspiration. Similarly, the decrease in total breath iEMG was primarily due to a decrease in iEMG3. We conclude that, in sheep subjected to severe IFR loads for prolonged periods the marked increase in total-breath iEMG at the beginning of loaded breathing and the marked decrease in this iEMG at the time of decrease in Pdi are largely due to changes in iEMG that occur during the latter third of each breath. We speculate that during loaded breathing the recruitment pattern of diaphragmatic muscle fibers changes during the course of an inspiratory effort.
