Wemeasured the ventilatory recruitment threshold for CO2 (RT) during wakefulness, non rapid eye movement sleep (NREM), and rapid eye movement sleep (REM) in eight patients with respiratory failure. Because the lungs were mechanically ventilated during the RT measurements, we were able to define the effects of arousal state on the chemoresponsiveness of the unloaded respiratory system. Ventilator settings were held constant In each patient, assuring that mechanoreceptor input to the respiratory controller remained the same during all measurements. RTIncreased from 38±6 mm Hg during relaxed wakefulness to 42±8 mm Hg during NREMsleep (p~ 0.01), consistent with a blunting of chemoresponslveness during sleep. In five subjects we were able to measure RT during REMsleep also. In four of them, REM RT exceeded the wakefulness measure· ment by at least 3 mm Hg. The remaining patient showed no demonstrable changes in RT during either sleep state. Weconclude that the loss of a wakefulness stimulus contributes to sleep-Induced hypercarbla In humans.
