In 9 cats and 9 humans anesthetized with alfaxalone, respiratory activity and tracheal pressure were recorded prior to and during occlusion of the airway at end inspiration or end expiration. Lung inflations at the end of expiration were also performed. The ventilatory pattern was also analyzed during hypercapnia. Occlusions at the end of inspiration or inflations provoked an apnea in cats and humans. Concomitant with increases in tidal volume during hypercapnia, inspiratory duration decreased in cats and did not change in humans. Apparently, the Breuer-Hering reflex, which delays the onset of inspiration during inflation, was equally operative in cats and humans. The Breuer-Hering threshold curve, which accounts for the off-switch of inspiration, was different in cats and humans. The Breuer-Hearing inflation reflex is operative in humans but it does not seem to be involved in the control of the inspiratory off-switch mechanisms during increased respiratory activity resulting from hypercapnia.
