Abstract
Alveolar ventilation during IPPV depends on the bulk movement of gas through the conducting airways in volumes that exceed the anatomical dead space. Inhalation is a discrete interval during which inspired gas enters the airway and proceeds to the alveolar gas exchange pool. Exhalation is also a discrete period during which the bulk volume of the inspired gas exits the lungs. During IPPV there is a phasic variation in the airway pressure which is transmitted to the thorax resulting in respiratory variations in the pulmonary artery and systemic arterial pressures.
