1. Simultaneous CO2 titration curves of arterial and mixed venous blood were determined in both dog and man in vivo. 2. The slopes of the CO2 titration curves of mixed venous blood were significantly less than those of the corresponding arterial curves. 3. The non-respiratory pH values of the CO2 titration curves of mixed venous blood were significantly greater than those of the corresponding arterial curves. 4. The theoretical explanations of these differences have been discussed.

The major objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that in ponies the change in plasma [H+] resulting from a change in PCO2 (delta H+/delta PCO2) is less under acute in vivo conditions than under in vitro conditions. Elevation of inspired CO2 and lowering of inspired O2 (causing hyperventilation) were used to respectively increase and decrease arterial PCO2 (Paco2) by 5-8 Torr from normal. Arterial and mixed venous blood were simultaneously sampled in 12 ponies during eucapnia and 5-60 min after Paco2 had changed. In vitro data were obtained by equilibrating blood in a tonometer at five different levels of PCO2. The in vitro slopes of the H+ vs. PCO2 relationships were 0.73 +/- 0.01 and 0.69 +/- 0.01 neq.1-1.Torr-1 for oxygenated and partially deoxygenated blood, respectively. These slopes were greater (P less than 0.001) than the in vivo H+ vs. PCO2 slopes of 0.61 +/- 0.03 and 0.57 +/- 0.03 for arterial and mixed venous blood, respectively. The delta HCO3-/delta pH (Slykes) was 15.4 +/- 1.1 and 17.0 +/- 1.1 for in vitro oxygenated and partially deoxygenated blood, respectively. These values were lower (P less than 0.001) than the in vivo values of 23.3 +/- 2.7 and 25.2 +/- 4.7 Slykes for arterial and mixed venous blood, respectively. In vitro, plasma strong ion difference (SID) increased 4.5 +/- 0.2 meq/l (P less than 0.001) when Pco2 was increased from 25 to 55 Torr. A 3.5-meq/l decrease in [Cl-] (P less than 0.001) and a 1.3 +/- 0.1 meq/l increase in [Na+] (P less than 0.001) accounted for the SID change.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Haldane Effect

The Christiansen-Douglas-Haldane effect, in short the Haldane effect, describes the dependence of the CO2 binding of blood on the degree of oxygenation of haemoglobin. Under the physiological conditions of an ‘open’ system between blood and alveoli the partial pressure of arterial C02 (PaCO2), must be less than that of mixed venous blood (P[Formula: see text]CO2). During the unphysiological conditions of a ‘closed’ system, e.g. hyperoxic apnoea, i.e. continuous oxygen uptake without CO2 delivery by the lungs, the Paco2 will not only approximate the P[Formula: see text]CO2 but will even exceed it. Without the Haldane effect, rapid adjustment of Paco2 to P[Formula: see text]CO2 would be expected during apnoea due to the lack of CO2 excretion. If however, as undertaken in this study, ongoing oxygenation (high alveolar Po2 (PACO2) with concomitant lack of C02 delivery (apnoea, i. e. the C02 concentration remains constant) lead to a continuing sufficient oxygenation of blood during its passage through the lung capillaries, then this leads to a rightwards shift of the CO2 binding curve — the Haldane effect. The resulting increase in Pco2 as shown here actually leads to an arterial-mixed venous CO2 partial pressure difference (a[Formula: see text]DPco2) of 2.8±1.8 mmHg. The results described substantiate for the first time the existence of the Haldane effect under clinical conditions.

Four mature horses were used to test the effects of two doses (50 and 200 mg) of intravenously administered cocaine on hemodynamics and selected indexes of performance [maximal heart rate (HRmax), treadmill velocity at HRmax, treadmill velocity needed to produce a blood lactate concentration of 4 mmol/l, maximal mixed venous blood lactate concentration, maximal treadmill work intensity, and test duration] measured during an incremental treadmill test. Both doses of cocaine increased HRmax approximately 7% (P < 0.05). Mean arterial pressure was 30 mmHg greater (P < 0.05) during the 4- to 7-m/s steps of the exercise test in the 200-mg trial. Neither dose of cocaine had an effect on the responses to exertion of right atrial pressure, right ventricular pressure, or maximal change in right ventricular pressure over time. Maximal mixed venous blood lactate concentration increased 41% (P < 0.05) with the 50-mg dose and 75% (P < 0.05) with the 200-mg dose during exercise. Administration of cocaine resulted in decreases (P < 0.05) in the treadmill velocity needed to produce a blood lactate concentration of 4 mmol/l from 6.9 +/- 0.5 and 6.8 +/- 0.9 m/s during the control trials to 4.4 +/- 0.1 m/s during the 200-mg cocaine trial. Cocaine did not alter maximal treadmill work intensity (P > 0.05); however, time to exhaustion increased by approximately 92 s (15%; P < 0.05) during the 200-mg trial.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Methods have been presented for assessing pulmonary diffusion by the “equilibration technique” in the experimental intact dog and perfused lung while controlling ventilation with a whole body respirator. No significant change in diffusion of carbon monoxide was noted between open and closed chest anesthetized animals, with duration of anesthesia in the intact dog, or with duration of perfusion of the isolated dog's lung. There was no demonstrable difference in diffusion when arterialized blood was used as the perfusate in place of mixed venous blood in the lung perfusions suggesting that within the range studied the Po2, Pco2, and pH of pulmonary artery blood does not directly affect the diffusion of carbon monoxide. Retrograde perfusions of dogs' lungs did not significantly alter diffusion, suggesting that pulmonary venous resistance was not significantly lower than pulmonary arterial resistance in the perfused dog lung at the flows and pressures studied. The equilibration technique for measuring pulmonary diffusion and assessing the uniformity of diffusion was well suited to the study of pulmonary diffusing characteristics in the experimental animal.

The analyzer described was de signed for measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide in the bag of gas from which the subject rebreathes in the “rebreathing method” for estimating the tension of carbon dioxide in mixed venous blood. Its merits are that it is cheap, robust, simple to construct and to service, easy to operate, and accurate when used by untrained operators. (Medical students, unacquainted with the instrument, and working with written instructions only, obtained at their first attempt results accurate to within ±0.36% [sd] of carbon dioxide.) The instrument is suitable for use by nurse or physician at the bedside, and also for classes in experimental physiology. Some discussion is presented of the theoretical principles underlying the design of analyzers employing thermal conductivity cells. Submitted on July 13, 1961

The measurement of cardiac output was first proposed by Fick, who published his equation in 1870. Fick's calculation called for the measurement of the contents of oxygen or CO2 in pulmonary arterial and systemic arterial blood. These values could not be determined directly in human subjects until the acceptance of cardiac catheterization as a clinical procedure in 1940. In the meanwhile, several attempts were made to perfect respiratory methods for the indirect determination of blood-gas contents by respiratory techniques that yielded estimates of the mixed venous and pulmonary capillary gas pressures. The immediate uptake of nonresident gases can be used in a similar way to calculate cardiac output, with the added advantage that they are absent from the mixed venous blood. The fact that these procedures are safe and relatively nonintrusive makes them attractive to physiologists, pharmacologists, and sports scientists as well as to clinicians concerned with the physiopathology of the heart and lung. This paper outlines the development of these techniques, with a discussion of some of the ways in which they stimulated research into the transport of gases in the body through the alveolar membrane.
