Abstract
BACKGROUND Total liquid ventilation (TLV) consists in filling the lungs with a perfluorocarbon (PFC) and using a liquid ventilator to ensure a tidal volume of oxygenated, CO 2 -free and temperature-controlled PFC. Having a much higher thermal capacity than air, liquid PFCs assume that the filled lungs become an efficient heat exchanger with pulmonary circulation. OBJECTIVE The objective of the present study was the development and validation of a parametric lumped thermal model of a subject in TLV. METHODS The lungs were modeled as one compartment in which the control volume varied as a function of the tidal volume. The heat transfer in the body was modeled as seven parallel compartments representing organs and tissues. The thermal model of the lungs and body was validated with two groups of lambs of different ages and weights (newborn and juvenile) undergoing an ultrafast mild therapeutic hypothermia induction by TLV. RESULTS The model error on all animals yielded a small mean error of -0.1 ±0.4 (°)C for the femoral artery and 0.0 ±0.1 (°)C for the pulmonary artery. CONCLUSION The resulting experimental validation attests that the model provided an accurate estimation of the systemic arterial temperature and the venous return temperature. SIGNIFICANCE This comprehensive thermal model of the lungs and body has the advantage of closely modeling the rapid thermal dynamics in TLV. The model can explain how the time to achieve mild hypothermia between newborn and juvenile lambs remained similar despite of highly different physiological and ventilatory parameters. The strength of the model is its strong relationship with the physiological parameters of the subjects, which suggests its suitability for projection to humans.

Abstract
Human have lungs to breathe air and they have no gills to breath liquids like fish. When the surface tension at the air-liquid interface of the lung increases as in acute lung injury, scientists started to think about filling the lung with fluid instead of air to reduce the surface tension and facilitate ventilation. Liquid ventilation (LV) is a technique of mechanical ventilation in which the lungs are insufflated with an oxygenated perfluorochemical liquid rather than an oxygen-containing gas mixture. The use of perfluorochemicals, rather than nitrogen as the inert carrier of oxygen and carbon dioxide offers a number of advantages for the treatment of acute lung injury. In addition, there are non-respiratory applications with expanding potential including pulmonary drug delivery and radiographic imaging. It is well-known that respiratory diseases are one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in intensive care unit. During the past few years several new modalities of treatment have been introduced. One of them and probably the most fascinating, is of LV. Partial LV, on which much of the existing research has concentrated, requires partial filling of lungs with perfluorocarbons (PFC's) and ventilation with gas tidal volumes using conventional mechanical ventilators. Various physico-chemical properties of PFC's make them the ideal media. It results in a dramatic improvement in lung compliance and oxygenation and decline in mean airway pressure and oxygen requirements. No long-term side-effect reported.

Brain Cooling With Ventilation of Cold Air Over Respiratory Tract in Newborn Piglets: An Experimental and Numerical Study. IEEE JOURNAL OF TRANSLATIONAL ENGINEERING IN HEALTH AND MEDICINE 2015; 3:1500108.

Abstract
We investigate thermal effects of pulmonary cooling which was induced by cold air through an endotracheal tube via a ventilator on newborn piglets. A mathematical model was initially employed to compare the thermal impact of two different gas mixtures, O2-medical air (1:2) and O2-Xe (1:2), across the respiratory tract and within the brain. Following mathematical simulations, we examined the theoretical predictions with O2-medical air condition on nine anesthetized piglets which were randomized to two treatment groups: 1) control group (\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

\end{document}). Numerical and experimental results using O2-medical air mixture show that brain temperature fell from 38.5 °C and 38.3 °C ± 0.3 °C to 35.7 °C ± 0.9 °C and 36.5 °C ± 0.6 °C during 3 h cooling which corresponded to a mean cooling rate of 0.9 °C/h ± 0.2 °C/h and 0.6 °C/h ± 0.1 °C/h, respectively. According to the numerical results, decreasing the metabolic rate and increasing air velocity are helpful to maximize the cooling effect. We demonstrated that pulmonary cooling by cooling of inhalation gases immediately before they enter the trachea can slowly reduce brain and core body temperature of newborn piglets. Numerical simulations show no significant differences between two different inhaled conditions, i.e., O2-medical air (1:2) and O2-Xe (1:2) with respect to cooling rate.

Abstract
Mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) consists in cooling the body temperature of a patient to between 32 and 34 °C. This technique helps to preserve tissues and neurological functions in multi-organ failure by preventing ischemic injury. Total liquid ventilation (TLV) ensures gas exchange in the lungs with a liquid, typically perfluorocarbon (PFC). A liquid ventilator is responsible for ensuring cyclic renewal of tidal volume of oxygenated and temperature-controlled PFC. Hence, TLV using the lung as a heat exchanger and PFC as a heat carrier allows ultra fast cooling of the whole body which can help improve outcome after ischemic injuries. The present study was aimed to evaluate the control performance and safety of automated ultrarapid MTH induction by TLV. Experimentation was conducted using the Inolivent-5.0 liquid ventilator equipped with a PFC treatment unit that allows PFC cooling and heating from the flow of energy carrier water inside a double wall installed on an oxygenator. A water circulating bath is used to manage water temperature. A feedback controller was developed to modulate inspired PFC temperature and control body temperature. Such a controller is important since, with MTH induction, heart temperature should not reach 28 °C because of a high risk of fibrillation. The in vivo experimental protocol was conducted on a male newborn lamb of 4.7 kg which, after anesthetization, was submitted to conventional gas ventilation and instrumented with temperature sensors at the femoral artery, oesophagus, right ear drum and rectum. After stabilization, TLV was initiated with fast automated MTH induction to 33.5 °C until stabilization of all temperatures. MTH could be reached safely in 3 minutes at the femoral artery, in 3.6 minutes at the esophagus, in 7.7 minutes at the eardrum and in 15 minutes at the rectum. All temperatures were stable at 33.5 ± 0.5 °C within 15 minutes. The present results reveal that ultra-fast MTH induction by TLV with Inolivent-5.0 is safe for the heart while maintaining esophageal and arterial temperature over 32.6 °C.

Abstract
Clinical studies have shown that hyperthermia in combination with radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy may be effective in the treatment of advanced cancer. No method of lung hyperthermia, however, has been accepted as standard or superior. This investigation sought to demonstrate in animals the thermal and physiologic feasibility of lung hyperthermia induced using heated breathable perfluorochemical (PFC) liquids, a method termed liquid-filled lung convective hyperthermia (LCHT). The ability to use LCHT is rooted in the development of both PFC liquid ventilation, now in clinical development with the PFC perflubron (LiquiVent), and a PFC blood substitute also in late Phase III trials (Oxygent). As LCHT background, the PFC technologies and biology are first reviewed. The physical properties of a variety of PFCs were evaluated for LCHT and it was concluded that more than one liquid is suitable based on such properties. Using total liquid ventilation type devices, LCHT was shown to deliver successfully localized (lobar) lung heating in sheep, and bilateral whole lung heating and whole-body hyperthermia in rabbits, cats and lambs. During LCHT, lung parenchymal temperatures were uniform (<1 degree C) across heated regions. In addition, based on patterns relating lung tissue temperatures to inspiratory and expiratory PFC liquid temperatures in the endotracheal tube, LCHT may minimize invasive thermometry requirements in the lung. Based on acute experiments, it was concluded that LCHT appears feasible and may simplify lung hyperthermia. It was recommended that potentially synergistic combinations of LCHT with other whole-body hyperthermia or local heating modalities, and with chemotherapeutic lung drug delivery, also be explored in the future.

Abstract
AIMS We investigated whether rapid cooling instituted by total liquid ventilation (TLV) improves cardiac and mitochondrial function in rabbits submitted to ischaemia-reperfusion. METHODS AND RESULTS Rabbits were chronically instrumented with a coronary artery occluder and myocardial ultrasonic crystals for assessment of segment length-shortening. Two weeks later they were re-anaesthetized and underwent either a normothermic 30-min coronary artery occlusion (CAO) (Control group, n = 7) or a comparable CAO with cooling initiated by a 10-min hypothermic TLV and maintained by a cold blanket placed on the skin. Cooling was initiated after 5 or 15 min of CAO (Hypo-TLV and Hypo-TLV(15') groups, n = 6 and 5, respectively). A last group underwent normothermic TLV during CAO (Normo-TLV group, n = 6). Wall motion was measured in the conscious state over three days of reperfusion before infarct size evaluation and histology. Additional experiments were done for myocardial sampling in anaesthetized rabbits for mitochondrial studies. The Hypo-TLV procedure induced a rapid decrease in myocardial temperature to 32-34 degrees C. Throughout reperfusion, segment length-shortening was significantly increased in Hypo-TLV and Hypo-TLV(15') vs. Control and Normo-TLV (15.1 +/- 3.3%, 16.4 +/- 2.3%, 1.8 +/- 0.6%, and 1.1 +/- 0.8% at 72 h, respectively). Infarct sizes were also considerably attenuated in Hypo-TLV and Hypo-TLV(15') vs. Control and Normo-TLV (4 +/- 1%, 11 +/- 5%, 39 +/- 2%, and 42 +/- 5% infarction of risk zones, respectively). Mitochondrial function in myocardial samples obtained at the end of ischaemia or after 10 min of reperfusion was improved by Hypo-TLV with respect to ADP-stimulated respiration and calcium-induced opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTP). Calcium concentration opening mPTP was, e.g., increased at the end of ischaemia in the risk zone in Hypo-TLV vs. Control (157 +/- 12 vs. 86 +/- 12 microM). Histology and electron microscopy also revealed better preservation of lungs and of cardiomyocyte ultrastructure in Hypo-TLV when compared with Control. CONCLUSION Institution of rapid cooling by TLV during ischaemia reduces infarct size as well as other sequelae of ischaemia, such as post-ischaemic contractile and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Because perfluorocarbon (PFC) liquid contacts closely with the alveolar capillaries during partial liquid ventilation (PLV), PLV with cold PFC may be used for the induction of hypothermia. Twenty rabbits were randomized to PFC-induced hypothermia (PH) (n = 7; core temperature 35 degrees +/- 1 degrees C), surface hypothermia (SH) (n = 7; 35 degrees +/- 1 degrees C), or normothermia (n = 6; 39 degrees +/- 1 degrees C). We induced PH by repeated in situ exchanges of 0 degrees C perfluorodecalin during PLV. At the establishment (0 min) of hypothermia in the PH group, oxygen consumption (P = 0.04) and oxygen extraction ratio (P = 0.01) decreased from normothermic condition. Metabolic (oxygen consumption, oxygen extraction ratio, serum lactate level) and hemodynamic variables (heart rate, blood pressure, cardiac output, pulmonary artery pressure) of the PH group were not different from those of the SH group at 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min of hypothermia. The difference in temperature between the pulmonary artery and rectum during the hypothermic period was smaller in the PH group compared with the SH group (P = 0.033). In conclusion, hypothermia may be induced during PLV by using cold PFC. This "pulmonary method" of cooling was comparable to a systemic method of cooling with regard to a few important physiologic variables, while maintaining a narrower interorgan temperature difference. IMPLICATIONS The induction of moderate hypothermia was feasible in rabbits by administrating cold perfluorocarbon liquid into the lung. Physiologic changes induced by this pulmonary cooling were comparable to those induced by systemic cooling. Our method may be regarded as a methodological advance in the field of therapeutic hypothermia.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that perfluorochemical (PFC) liquid ventilation (LV) can be used as a vehicle to deliver halothane and induce and maintain analgesia. Seven hamsters were paralysed and stabilized with mechanical gas ventilation, ventilated in alternating cycles with gas and either neat oxygenated PFC liquid or oxygenated PFC liquid mixed with liquid halothane (PFC:hal) 1:50% (volume/vapour); arterial pressure and blood gases were monitored throughout the protocol. After each cycle, the animal was stimulated with a foot clamp for 2 s. Mean arterial pressure (MAP:mmHg) response to this stimulation (percent change from the resting MAP) was used as an index of analgesia. Mean arterial pressure was significantly lower during ventilation with PFC:hal (73 +/- 7 SE) as compared with MAP during neat PFC (113 +/- 5 SE) or gas ventilation (107 +/- SE). Mean arterial pressure response (% change in MAP from baseline) to foot-clamp stimulation was significantly lower with PFC:hal ventilation (+ 12 +/- 5% SE) as compared with neat PFC (+ 28 +/- 8% SE) and gas ventilation (+ 29 +/- 9% SE). There was no statistically significant difference in resting MAP or MAP response to foot-clamp stimulation between cycles of ventilation with neat PFC alone or gas ventilation; arterial blood gases were not significantly different between modes of ventilation or levels of analgesia. The data indicate that halothane can be administered during LV while supporting gas exchange, and demonstrate the feasibility of inducing analgesia while using PFC LV techniques.
