Popis: | In chronic heart failure (CHF), the abnormally large ventilatory response to exercise (VE/VCO(2) slope) has 2 conceptual elements: the requirement of restraining arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO(2)) from increasing (because of an increased ratio between increased physiologic dead space and tidal volume [VD/VT]) and the depression of arterial pCO(2) by further increased ventilation, which necessarily implies an important non-carbon dioxide stimulus to ventilation. We aimed to assess the contribution of these 2 factors in determining the elevated VE/VCO(2) slope in CHF. Thirty patients with CHF underwent cardiopulmonary exercise testing (age 65 +/- 11 years, left ventricular ejection fraction 34 +/- 15%, peak oxygen uptake 15.2 +/- 4 ml/kg/min, VE/VCO(2) slope 36.4). At rest and during exercise, arterial pCO(2) was measured and VD was calculated and separated into serial and alveolar components. VD/VT decreased from 0.57 at rest to 0.44 at peak exercise (p |
