Inhaled carbon dioxide causes dose-dependent paradoxical bradypnea in animals anesthetized with pentobarbital, but not with isoflurane or ketamine

INTRODUCTION: In spontaneously breathing mice anesthetized with pentobarbital, we observed unexpected paradoxical bradypnea following 5% inhaled CO2.

METHODS: Observational study 7-8 week CB6F1/OlaHsd mice (n = 99), anesthetized with 30 mg/kg intraperitoneal pentobarbital. Interventional study: Adult male Wistar rats (n = 18), anesthetized either with 30 mg/kg intraperitoneal pentobarbital, 100 mg/kg intraperitoneal ketamine or 1.5% isoflurane. Rats had femoral artery cannulas inserted for hemodynamic monitoring and serial arterial blood gas measurements.

RESULTS: Observational study: There was a marked reduction in respiratory rate following 4 min of normoxic hypercapnia; average reduction of 9 breaths/min (p < 0.001) (17% reduction from baseline). Interventional study: increasing CO2 caused dose-dependent increase in respiratory rate for ketamine-xylazine (p = 0.007) and isoflurane (p = 0.016) but dose-dependent decrease in respiratory rate for pentobarbital (p = 0.046). Increasing inspired CO2 caused dose-dependent acidosis following pentobarbital and isoflurane (p = 0.013 and p = 0.017, respectively); but not following ketamine-xylazine (p = 0.58).

CONCLUSIONS: Inhaled CO2 caused paradoxical dose-dependent bradypnea in animals anesthetized with pentobarbital, an observation not hitherto reported as a part of anesthesia-related respiratory depression.
