Physiological effects of high-P50 erythrocyte transfusion on piglets

B. P. Teisseire, C. Ropars, M. O. Vallez, R. A. Herigault and C. Nicolau

Rightward shifts of the O2 dissociation curve (ODC) were experimentally obtained in lysed and resealed erythrocytes following encapsulation of inositol hexaphosphate (IHP). This continuous lysing and resealing procedure led to in vitro P50 (Po2 at 50% hemoglobin saturation) increases up to 80 Torr (pH, 7.40; Pco2, 40 Torr; temp, 37 degrees C) for both human and pig erythrocytes. The Hill number of the transformed blood decreased when IHP was fixed on the hemoglobin, but the sigmoid shape of the ODC was maintained. The O2 hemoglobin binding capacity and the mean corpuscular hemoglobin content were found unchanged by the experimental procedure in human and pig erythrocytes. Isovolumic exchange transfusion of high-P50 erythrocytes in anesthetized and ambient air-ventilated piglets (n = 6) led to substantial in vivo P50 increases (range, 8-19 Torr). The rightward shift of the ODC was concomitant with an increase of the arterial Po2 and of the arteriovenous O2 content difference, 19 and 59% respectively above their control values. The mixed-venous Po2 (PVO2) remained unchanged. The cardiac output was shown to be inversely related to the P50 value. In spite of the O2-transport reduction (37%), O2 consumption was maintained due to enhanced O2 extraction.
