    Study Notes

    Right Ventricular Overload and Insufflation

    • During insufflation, right ventricular ejection is impeded
    • This can cause right ventricular overload and a leftward septal shift
    • In patients with pre-existing right ventricular dysfunction (common in COPD), high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can be linked to right ventricular failure
    • High PEEP in this scenario might indicate right ventricular afterload dependence rather than fluid responsiveness

    Right Ventricular Preload and Mechanical Insufflation

    • If the right ventricle is preload-dependent, a decrease in preload during mechanical insufflation can lead to a reduced right ventricular stroke volume
    • This can, in turn, result in a decreased left ventricular preload during expiration due to the pulmonary transit time

    Respiratory and Circulatory Pump Interplay

    • Mechanical insufflation affects the interplay between the respiratory and circulatory pumps within the thorax
    • This happens primarily due to the changes in intrathoracic pressure
    • Intrathoracic pressure fluctuations are transmitted to the cardiac cavities and influence alveolar pressure
    • This complex interaction can impact lung function and overall hemodynamics
