Gas exchange and lung mechanics during high frequency ventilation in the perflubron-treated lung.
To identify the effect of perflubron on gas exchange and lung mechanics during high frequency oscillatory ventilation in an animal model. ⋯ Although PFOB-Hi compared with the control group improved oxygenation and reduced pulmonary shunt fraction only during the first pressure steps of a formal stepwise recruitment maneuver during high frequency oscillatory ventilation, this effect was not sustained during maximal recruitment. During the deflation phase, both PFOB groups were associated with worse gas exchange compared with the control group. PFOB also produced significant pulmonary hypertension in comparison with the control group.
