The influence of molecular diffusion on gas-mixing during conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) and high frequency ventilation (HFV) was studied by observing the wash-In of six poorly soluble, Inert gases In arterial blood. Anesthetized dogs were ventilated either with CMV or HFV. Following a step change In Inspired gas composition, the Increase In arterial concentrations of hydrogen, helium, methane, ethane, Isobutane, and sulfur hexafluoride was determined by gas chromatography. The relative gas dlffuslvltles encompassed a range of almost one order of magnitude. Propane, present In Inspired gas during both the control and wash-In phases, served as an internal reference for calculation of blood tracer concentrations. The wash-In of all six Inert gases followed a single exponential time course during both CMV and HFV. The rate of wash-In of each gas decreased with Increasing molecular weight (MW). The relationship of rate constants to a measure of relative dlffuslvlty (MW-0.5) was significantly different than zero for both types of ventilation.
