    Abstract:
    Two to seven weeks after banding the main pulmonary artery, the hemodynamic effects of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) and conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) were studied in dogs with and without PEEP. In comparison with CMV, HFJV significantly increased cardiac index, stroke index (SI), left ventricular stroke work index, and oxygen delivery index, and decreased pulmonary vascular resistance index both with and without PEEP; however, there were significant decreases in PaO2 and increases in intrapulmonary physiologic shunt ratio in HFJV without PEEP. SI without PEEP was significantly greater with HFJV when the peak airway pressure was synchronized with the diastole in pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) than with CMV and with HFJV synchronized with the systole in PAP. These findings suggest that HFJV has hemodynamic advantages over CMV in dogs with chronically banded pulmonary artery and dilated right ventricle.
