WOOLCOCK, ANN J”, AND PETER T. MACKLEM. Mechanicalfactors injkencing collateral ventilation in human, dog, and pig lungs. J. Appl. Physiol. 30 (l): 99-l 15. 1971.--The time constant(T) for collateral ventilation was measured in human, dog, and pig lungs under different physiological conditions by two methods with comparable results. Values for T were of the same order as values for the whole lungs in the dog and human; they varied with age, lung volume, volume history, volume of the collaterally ventilated space, bronchomotor tone, and whether the lungs were excised or in situ. The relative values of the flow resistance of the collateral channels and the compliance of the collaterally ventilated space were important in determining how these variables influenced collateral ventilation in these species. It was not possible to be sure that collateral ventilation exists in the pig lung. Since in the dog and human lungs it is possible for air to flow into the parenchyma just as quickly through collateral channels as it does through airways, the degree of collateral ventilation present in any given lung will be important in determining the degree of functional abnormality occurring in response to airway obstruction. time constant; species differences; mechanical properties of lungsTHE CLASSIC STUDIES of Van Allen, Lindskog, and Richter (23) in 193 1 established that in some species air may enter the parenchyma of lung through collateral channels, even though the airway leading to that part of the parenchyma is completely occluded. Lindskog and Bradshaw(13) estimated that in the dog the tidal volume delivered through collateral channels to a segment the airways of which were occluded was at least 10 72 of the tidal volume when the airway was unobstructed and the segment was ventilated normally.
