Effect of CPAP on breathlessness perception in healthy subjects during methacholine induced bronchoconstriction.
Application of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in asthmatic patients decreases breathlessness (B). The effect of CPAP on induced bronchoconstriction was studied in healthy subjects. The changes in B were related to changes in lung function indices. In nine healthy volunteers, males aged 20-27 years, acute bronchoconstriction was induced by inhalation of 1 to 128 mg/ml methacholine (M). CPAP (0.5 kPa) was then applied for 1 min. It was followed by inhalation of albuterol. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and vital capacity (VC) were measured by spirometry and end expiratory lung level (EELL), to derive inspiratory capacity (IC), by inductive plethysmography. B was assessed by Borg scale. After the maximal concentration of M, FEV1 decreased by 14% (p < 0.01) as compared to the control values and Borg score (BS) increased to 2.4 (p < 0.01). In 7 out of 9 subjects we found a significant (p < 0.05) correlation between the changes in FEV1 and BS. BS decreased during CPAP (p < 0.01) and it further decreased significantly after albuterol. There was no correlation between the changes in IC and FEV1 during bronchoconstriction, or between IC and BS during CPAP. In conclusion, in healthy subjects with induced bronchoconstriction CPAP decreased significantly BS, which was further improved by inhalation of albuterol. B was related to changes in FEV1 but not in IC.
