In severe COPD, ventilation at peak exercise may exceed the resting maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV). We investigated the mechanisms by which the breathing capacity can improve during exercise in COPD. A total of 13 patients with an FEV1 of 32+/-12% (SD) predicted, performed an incremental maximal exercise test and FVC and MVV maneuvers at rest and during constant work rate exercise. Maximal exercise ventilation was 3+/-2 L/min higher than resting MVV. Breathing capacity improved during exercise; resting MVV was 30+/-3 (SE) L/min, while it reached 38+/-3 L/min during exercise (P < 0.002). FEV1 improved from 0.86+/-0.1 L at rest to 1.01+/-0.1 L during exercise (P < 0.004), which is consistent with exercise-induced bronchodilatation. It is concluded that in severe COPD, breathing capacity improves during exercise. Assuming that the change in FEV1 reflects improved airway function, these data suggest that exercise-induced bronchodilatation contributed to that improvement.
在重度慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)中,运动峰值时的通气量可能超过静息时的最大自主通气量(MVV)。我们研究了COPD患者运动期间呼吸能力得以改善的机制。共有13例预计第一秒用力呼气容积(FEV1)为32±12%(标准差)的患者,进行了递增式最大运动试验,并在静息和恒定工作率运动期间进行了用力肺活量(FVC)和MVV操作。最大运动通气量比静息MVV高3±2升/分钟。运动期间呼吸能力有所改善;静息MVV为30±3(标准误)升/分钟,而运动期间达到38±3升/分钟(P<0.002)。FEV1从静息时的0.86±0.1升提高到运动期间的1.01±0.1升(P<0.004),这与运动诱发的支气管扩张一致。得出的结论是,在重度COPD中,运动期间呼吸能力会改善。假设FEV1的变化反映了气道功能的改善,这些数据表明运动诱发的支气管扩张促成了这种改善。
