The frequency dependency of the magnitude and phase angle of total respiratory impedance was measured in apneic dogs at functional residual capacity during forced oscillation by a special electronics unit. Regression analysis of these data yielded estimates of total respiratory resistance (RFO), inertance (IFO), and compliance (CFO). After correcting for the effects of the endotracheal tube, mean control values (+/-SE) of RFO, IFO, and CFO for the clinically normal dogs were 1.30+/-0.10 cmH2O-1-1-s, 0.0114+/-0.0022 cmH2O-1-1-s2, and 0.0306+/-0.0009 1-cm H2O-1, respectively. Estimates obtained with added resistance, a less dense gas, and abdominal weighting were consistent with predicted effects. In four dogs with mild respiratory symptoms, mean RFO was significantly elevated with no change in IFO or CFO. Independent measurements of resistance and compliance during tidal ventilation correlated well with RFO (r=0.87) and CFO (r=0.80), but RFO and CFO were, on the average, 71% of the tidal breathing values. Thus, the method provides precise estimates of RFO, IFO, and CFO, and allows detection of small changes in these parameters.
