The aims of this study were to characterize the ventilatory responses elicited by a low dose of morphine in conscious rats;to determine whether tolerance develops to these responses;and to determine the potential roles of peripheral μ-opioid receptors (μ-ORs) in these responses. Ventilatory parameters were monitored via unrestrained whole-body plethysmography. Conscious male Sprague-Dawley rats received an intravenous injection of vehicle or the peripherally-restricted μ-OR antagonist, naloxone methiodide (NLXmi), and then three successive injections of morphine (1 mg/kg) given 30 min apart. The first injection of morphine in vehicle-treated rats elicited an array of ventilatory excitant (i.e., increases in frequency of breathing, minute volume, respiratory drive, peak inspiratory and expiratory flows, accompanied by decreases in inspiratory time and end inspiratory pause) and inhibitory (i.e., a decrease in tidal volume and an increase in expiratory time) responses. Subsequent injections of morphine elicited progressively and substantially smaller responses. The pattern of ventilatory responses elicited by the first injection of morphine was substantially affected by pretreatment with NLXmi whereas NLXmi minimally affected the development of tolerance to these responses. Low-dose morphine elicits an array of ventilatory excitant and depressant effects in conscious rats that are subject to the development of tolerance. Many of these initial actions of morphine appear to involve activation of peripheral μ-ORs whereas the development of tolerance to these responses does not.展开更多

Anesthesiologists often use airway maneuvers to maintain airway patency and ventilation during procedural sedation. A novel, non-invasive, Respiratory Volume Monitor (RVM) that provided continuous, real-time measurements of minute ventilation (MV), tidal volume (TV) and respiratory rate (RR) was used to monitor respiratory performance before, during, and after endoscopic procedures, quantify MV changes before and after airway maneuvers, and to quantify propofol-induced respiratory depression. Methods: RVM traces were obtained from 25 patients undergoing sedation for endoscopic procedures. Airway maneuvers were performed in 19/25 patients. All 25 patients received propofol as the primary sedative. Results: Forty-five airway maneuvers were performed. During these maneuvers, all respiratory parameters increased relative to pre-maneuver levels. On average, MV increased by 24% ± 5% (mean ± SEM), TV 14% ± 5% and RR: 17% ± 6%. The cohort average MVBASELINE was 9.5 ± 0.7 L/min (TV = 670 ± 60 ml, RR = 15 ± 0.7). Following propofol MV decreased transiently, reaching nadir five minutes after the last dose of propofol at 82% ± 10% of baseline (MV = 7.5 ± 1.0 L/min). The reduction in MV was driven by reduction in TV, not RR. Conclusions: Data demonstrated that RVM was able to track changes in ventilation and was able to quantify respiratory changes following airway maneuvers. All patients had a significant reduction in ventilatory volumes after propofol. Five minutes after the last dose of propofol, MV and TV were significantly reduced while RR was not, suggesting that monitoring respiratory rate alone was not a sufficient indicator of respiratory status.展开更多

In this study, we examined the ventilatory responses elicited by hypoxic-hypercapnic challenge in conscious rats at a time when the effects of morphine (10 mg/kg) on arterial blood-gas chemistry and minute ventilation had subsided. Morphine induced pronounced changes in arterial blood-gas chemistry (e.g., an increase in pCO2, decreases in pO2 and sO2) and decreases in minute ventilation. Despite the complete resolution of the morphine-induced changes in arterial blood-gas chemistry and minute ventilation and almost complete resolution of the effects on peak inspiratory flow and peak expiratory flow, subsequent exposure to hypoxic-hypercapnic challenge elicited markedly blunted increases in minute ventilation and in peak inspiratory and expiratory flows. These findings demonstrate that 1) the changes in arterial blood-gas chemistry elicited by morphine parallel changes in minute ventilation rather than PIF and PEF, and 2) morphine has latent untoward effects on the ventilatory responses to hypoxic-hypercapnic challenge. These novel findings raise the possibility that patients deemed to have recovered from the acute ventilatory depresssant effects of morphine may still be susceptible to the latent effects of this opioid analgesic. The mechanisms underlying these latent effects remain to be elucidated.展开更多

In vehicle-treated rats, each episode of hypoxia stimulated ventilatory function and the responses generally subsided during each normoxic period. Morphine (5 mg/kg, i.v.) induced an array of depressant effects on ABG chemistry, A-a gradient and Vm (via decreases in tidal volume). Despite resolution of these morphine-induced effects, the first episode of hypoxia elicited substantially smaller increases in Vm than in vehicle-treated rats, due mainly to smaller increases in frequency of breathing. The pattern of ventilatory responses during subsequent episodes of hypoxia and normoxia changed substantially in morphine-treated rats. It is evident that morphine haslatent deleterious effects on ventilatory responses elicited by hypoxic challenge.展开更多
