    Notes: Abstract Objective: To study pressure-volume (P/V) curves over a wide pressure and volume range in pigs.¶Design: Dynamic and static P/V curves (Pdyn/V and Pst/V) and compliance of the respiratory system were studied. The effects of recruitment, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and body position were analysed.¶Setting: Research animal laboratory.¶Materials: Seven anaesthetised, paralysed and ventilated healthy pigs of 21 kg.¶Measurements: P/V curves up to a pressure of about 40 cmH2O were recorded with a computer-controlled ventilator. Pst/V curves were obtained with the static occlusion method and Pdyn/V curves during an insufflation at a low, constant flow rate.¶Results: Pdyn/V recording showed a complex pattern. During the insufflation compliance increased, fell, increased and fell again. A 2nd ¶Pdyn/V recording immediately following the 1st one was displaced towards higher volumes and showed only one maximum of compliance. The difference between the two curves reflected: (1) lung collapse during a period of 5 min of ventilation at zero end-expiratory pressure (ZEEP) following a recruitment manoeuvre, (2) recruitment during the measurement of the 1st Pdyn/V curve. These observations were similar in the supine and in the left lateral position. After ventilation at PEEP, 4 cmH2O, the signs of collapse and recruitment were reduced. It was confirmed that PEEP offers a partial protection against collapse. Pst/V curves showed higher volumes and higher compliance values compared to Pdyn/V curves. This reflects the influence of viscoelastance on Pdyn/V curves.¶Conclusion: The study demonstrates a particularly strong tendency to lung collapse in pigs.

    Notes: Abstract We report a search for γ rays emanating from Coulomb excitation of fast (30–46 MeV/u) radioactive projectiles8He,11,12,14Be interacting with a lead target. These are clearly identified by their Doppler shift. The 320 keV 1/2− → 1/2+ γ transition from11Be was observed with a cross-section of 191±26 mb which is noticeably less than expected from the known lifetime and in the perturbation limit of pure Coulomb excitation. In the other nuclei rather stringent upper limits of 0.01 to 0.2 Weisskopf units, are placed on the hypothetical transition to 1− states.

    Notes: Abstract: The β+– electron capture decay of 73Kr, produced at the ISOLDE CERN facility, has been studied by β-delayed proton and gamma emission. The established decay scheme involves 15 up to now unreported gamma emitting levels in 73Br. The total proton branching ratio has been measured to be 0.0025 ± 0.0003. From this work, a spin and parity 3/2− is assigned to the 73Kr ground state, on the basis of the allowed β branch to the 73Br Jπ= 1/2− ground state and the feeding of the 5/2+ level located at 286 keV in 73Br.

    Notes: Abstract Objective: Aspiration of dead space (ASPIDS) improves carbon dioxide (CO2) elimination by replacing dead space air rich in CO2 with fresh gas during expiration. The hypothesis was that ASPIDS allows normocapnia to be maintained at low tidal volumes (VT). Design: Prospective study. Setting: Adult intensive care unit in a university hospital. Patients: Seven patients ventilated for neurological reasons were studied. All patients were clinically and haemodynamically stable and monitored according to clinical needs. Interventions: ASPIDS implies that, during expiration, gas is aspirated through a catheter inserted in the tracheal tube. Simultaneously, a compensatory flow of fresh gas is injected into the inspiratory line. ASPIDS was achieved with a computer/ventilator system controlling two solenoid valves for aspiration and injection. Results: At the basal respiratory rate of 12.6 breaths min–1, with ASPIDS VT decreased from 602 to 456 ml, as did the airway pressures to a corresponding degree. PaCO2 and PaO2 remained stable. At a frequency of 20 breaths min–1, with ASPIDS VT was further reduced to 305 ml with preserved normocapnia. ASPIDS did not interfere with the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) level. No intrinsic PEEP developed. All patients remained stable. No haemodynamic or other side effects of ASPIDS were noticed. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that ASPIDS may be a useful and safe modality of mechanical ventilation that limits alveolar pressure and minute ventilation requirements while keeping PaCO2 constant.
