ABSTRACT
We compared the effects of large-volume ventilation on airway responses to aerosolized histamine in anesthetized mongrel dogs with its effects in Basenji-Greyhound crossbred (B-G) dogs. Before bronchoconstriction, large inflations resulted in only small changes of dynamic compliance (Cdyn) and pulmonary resistance (RL) in both groups of dogs. After the induction of a moderate degree of bronchoconstriction with aerosolized histamine, large inflations had a more substantial effect; Cdyn increased by 7.5 +/- 2.3% (mean +/- SE; P less than 0.05), and RL decreased by 32 +/- 3.4% (P less than 0.001) in the mongrel dogs. In the B-G group, Cdyn increased by only 0.2 +/- 1.8% (NS), and RL increased by 29.3 +/- 9.2% (P less than 0.05); these changes differed significantly (P less than 0.05) from those observed in the mongrel dogs. Large-volume ventilation following the administration of indomethacin (10 mg/kg iv) and histamine increased Cdyn by 11.4 +/- 1.8% (NS vs. without indomethacin) and decreased RL by 43.9 +/- 3.4% (P less than 0.05) in the mongrel group. In the B-G group large-volume ventilation increased Cdyn by 7.6 +/- 1.7% (P less than 0.01) and decreased RL by 15.7 +/- 8.1% (P less than 0.05). Thus indomethacin enhanced the bronchodilator effects of large-volume ventilation in mongrel dogs and reversed the bronchoconstrictor effect of this maneuver on RL in B-G dogs.
