  • Title: Significance of cardiogenic mixing in dog lungs.
    Author: Schell JM, Rahmel A, Schwalen A, Calzia E, Meyer M, Piiper J.
    Journal: Adv Exp Med Biol; 1990; 277():609-14. PubMed ID: 2096663.
    Abstract:
    Single-breath washout of two inert gases (He and SF6) in anesthetized mechanically ventilated dogs in normal conditions with the heart beating and during reversible heart arrest revealed no effects attributable to the action of the beating heart. It is concluded that in the conditions of the experiments convective mixing by the cardiac action played an insignificant role in promoting intrapulmonary mixing and transport.
