A tracking impedance estimation technique was developed to follow the changes in total respiratory impedance (Zrs) during slow total lung capacity maneuvers in six anesthetized and mechanically ventilated BALB/c mice. Zrs was measured with the wave-tube technique and pseudorandom forced oscillations at nine frequencies between 4 and 38 Hz during inflation from a transrespiratory pressure of 0-20 cmH(2)O and subsequent deflation, each lasting for similar to20 s. Zrs was averaged for 0.125 s and fitted by a model featuring airway resistance ( Raw) and inertance, and tissue damping and elastance ( H). Lower airway conductance (Glaw) was linearly related to volume above functional residual capacity (V) between 0 and 75 - 95% maximum V, with a mean slope of dGlaw/dV = 13.6 +/- 4.6 cmH(2)O(-1) . s(-1). The interdependence of Raw and H was characterized by two distinct and closely linear relationships for the low- and high-volume regions, separated at similar to 40% maximum V. Comparison of Raw with the highest-frequency resistance of the total respiratory system revealed a marked volume-dependent contribution of tissue resistance to total respiratory system resistance, resulting in the overestimation of Raw by 19 +/- 8 and 163 +/- 40% at functional residual capacity and total lung capacity, respectively, whereas the lowest frequency reactance was proportional to H; these findings indicate that single- frequency resistance values may become inappropriate as surrogates of Raw when tissue impedance is changing.
