Respiratory oscillations in alveolar oxygen tension measured in arterial blood

Abstract: Arterial oxygen partial pressure can increase during inspiration and decrease during expiration in the presence of a variable shunt fraction, such as with cyclical atelectasis, but it is generally presumed to remain constant within a respiratory cycle in the healthy lung. We measured arterial oxygen partial pressure continuously with a fast intra-vascular sensor in the carotid artery of anaesthetized, mechanically ventilated pigs, without lung injury. Here we demonstrate that arterial oxygen partial pressure s… Show more

“…While our studies were performed in mice, there are respiration-driven fluctuations in the arterial blood of ungulates 61, 62 , suggesting it is a general property of mammals. While it is generally presumed that arterial blood is saturated in humans (but see 21 ), arterial oxygen tension decreases substantially with age 72 and acutely during sleep 73 .…”

“…One possible driver of the increases in cerebral oxygenation is the increase in respiration during locomotion. Changes in respiration affect blood oxygen levels in the carotid artery 61, 62 in anesthetized animals, and in humans, inhalation of 100% oxygen can elevate brain oxygen levels 63 . However, it is not known if normal fluctuations in respiration rate can impact cerebral oxygenation during normal behaviors.…”
