Hemodynamic effects of controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV), intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV), and intermittent mandatory ventilation with 5 cm H20 PEEP (IMV 5 peep) were studied in 20 patients after aortocoronary bypass surgery. Significant increases in cardiac index (CI) and stroke volume index (SI) (p less than 0.01) resulted in patients with normal left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and ejection fraction (EF) changing from CMV to IMV. With a change from IMV to IMV 5 peep, the CI and SI returned to CMV values. However, in patients with increased LVEDP with an EF of less than 0.6, suggesting poor ventricular function and reserve, when the mode of ventilation was changed from CMV to IMV, right atrial pressure (RAP) and pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) significantly increased (p less than 0.01) with an associated significant decrease in mean arterial pressure (MAP), CI, SI (p less than 0.01). When these patients were placed on IMV 5 peep, the hemodynamic variables returned to the values obtained during CMV. We conclude that changing from CMV to IMV has salutory effects on the patient's hemodynamic values with normal left ventricular function. But in patients with failing left ventricle, volume overload of right ventricle which occurs with the institution of spontaneous respiration during IMV has deleterious effects on the hemodynamic variables. These deleterious effects can be effectively negated by the application of IMV 5 peep.
