Effects of prolonged elevated microvascular pressure on lung fluid balance in sheep

R. E. Parker, R. J. Roselli and K. L. Brigham

Experiments were conducted in seven chronically instrumented unanesthetized sheep to estimate the osmotic reflection coefficient (sigma d) for total proteins and the solvent-drag reflection coefficients (sigma f) for six endogenous protein fractions. We measured the lymph-to-plasma ratio of total proteins (CL/CP) and six protein fractions during base-line conditions and after left atrial pressure elevations of 24-26 h per elevation. We also monitored pulmonary arterial pressure, left atrial pressure, systemic arterial pressure, and lung lymph flow at the various levels of pulmonary microvascular pressure. Our results indicate the CL/CP may require up to 24 h to reach a true steady state. It was found that sigma d is at least 0.89 for total proteins and sigma f is at least 0.84, 0.87, 0.86, 0.92, 0.95, and 0.96 for protein fractions with effective molecular radii of 36, 39.5, 44, 66, 105, and 123 A, respectively. In addition, the sigma f values for various protein fractions obtained from this investigation are compared with the predicted values of various mathematical models of the lung microcirculation.
