Three adult monkeys were anesthetized with ketamine and ventilated with fluorocarbon liquid [perfluoro bis (1, 4-isopropoxy) butane (Caroxin-D)] at 1 atmosphere on two separate occasions. During five runs, liquid ventilation was continued for 60 minutes. The sixth run was continued for ten minutes. Arterial blood gas levels during and after liquid ventilation were adequate for survival. Three years after the first period of liquid ventilation, the animals were killed. Approximately 0.001 mg of fluorocarbon per gram of tissue was present in the kidney, liver, brain, spleen, muscle, and heart. Fat contained approximately seven to nine times this amount, and the lung and pulmonary lymph nodes contained approximately 1,000 times this amount. In no case was it clinically evident that the monkeys had undergone periods of liquid ventilation. We conclude that primates can be ventilated successfully with liquid fluorocarbon on at least two separate occasions and can return to breathing air without obvious deleterious effects, but fluorocarbon is retained in small amounts for at least three years.
