feature of these studies [but not of the sinusoidal studies of Wigertz (125)
and Casaburi et al (15)] is that a rapid VE component was evident against
a background of prior mild exercise. This component evidenced quite differ
ent kinetic characteristics from the subsequent nonsteady-state component
of the response (i.e. phase 2 or �2). Thus while both components are
adequately described by the first-order transfer function:
Ae-sT l/(l+sor) 1.
where A and B are the steady-state amplitudes of the c/>I and c/>2 response
components, and 71, 72 and T" T2 are the corresponding time constant and
delay parameters. These authors elected to modify this model structure by
including an additional time constant parameter (T3) in the slow c/>2 com
partment, whose action was to "filter" its response:
3.
And while it provided a statistically better fit to their data, these authors
do not indicate whether this additional term is merely a mathematical
expedient or has any physiological significance. Using pseudo-random bi
nary sequences of work rate, Bennett et al (10) found that the modified
model of Fujihara et al [(37, 38); equation 3] also provided a better descrip
tion of their ventilatory data than did the simpler models (equations I &
2). Again, however, the physiological significance of the third time constant
parameter was not discussed. Both Fujihara et al (37, 38) and Bennett et
396 WHIPP
al (10) reported similar values for the cp2 delay parameter, T2 (some 15-20
sec), and the two time constant parameters (some 40-60 sec and 16-19 sec,
respectively).
Whipp et al (124), however, argued that the cp2 data resulting from
multiple square-wave forcings of work rate were so well described by a
mOIllo-exponential that the incorporation of additional dynamic compo
nents appeared unwarranted. Furthermore, the cp2 time constant was not
discernibly affected by whether the prior control condition was rest or mild
exercise, a value of about 55 sec being obtained in both cases.
A fundamentally different model structure was used by Bakker et al (5).

Altbough the authors do not detail the physiological basis of this model,
it would be compatible with the ventilatory response dynamics reflecting the
serial washout of two intervening compartments or, perhaps, the washout
of a single compartment followed by a receptor mechanism responding with
first-·order kinetics. Furthermore, as the fit of the data to this model in
dicated the operation of a critically damped system (i.e. relative damping
coefficient � 1), these authors raised the possibility that the system might
include feedback pathways in addition to the two components in the for
ward path.
Investigators have also attempted to relate the phase 2 VE response
dynamics to those of O2 uptake and CO2 output. Satisfactory descriptions
of the cp2 gas exchange responses have been obtained from simple, first
orde:r models (Le. equation 1). The time constants of the V02 and Ve02
responses, however, are appreciably different, that for VOz being some
35-40 sec and that for Veoz some 50-60 sec (69, 75, 124). The slower
kinetics of Ve02 relative to V02 reflects the considerable capacity for
tissue storage of COz (57, 109).
Clearly, the ventilatory response cannot "track" both Voz and Veoz. It
is with Ve02 that VE is most closely related during this nonsteady-state
phase (15, 16, 75, 109, 118). Consequently, a transient fall in Pa02 should
be evident, and the slightly slower time course of VE than Veoz should also
elicit a small transient rise in Pae02. Experimental evidence of such a
transient arterial hypoxemia has been established (79, 123, 127). During
sinusoidal work-rate forcing (6 min period; work rate below the anaerobic
threshold), Whipp and associates (123) also demonstrated a significant
sinusoidal variation of Pae02 ("" ±1 torr, mean to peak), the peak occurring
when both VE and Ve02 were high, reflecting the small dynamic decoupling
between these variables.

where V0 is the dead space ventilation and VoiVT is the physiological dead
space fraction of the breath. Consequently, the ventilatory response to
exercise is systematically greater when Pac02 is caused to be low (58, 82)
or Vo and VOiVT high (89, 105, 106).
Jones (56) has recently demonstrated that as Veoz was decreased in the
steady state of moderate exercise by physical training (owing to a lowering
398 WHIPP
HEA VY AND SEVERE EXERCISE There has been less emphasis on ana
lyzing VE during heavy and severe exercise, owing largely to the nonlineari
ties in its response. These stem predominantly from the lactic acidosis that
characterizes these work rates (72, 80, 111); but increased body temperature
(29), catecholamines (73), and even, in some apparently normal but highly
fit subjects, arterial hypoxemia (29) are also likely to contribute.
It has been shown recently that when an incremental exercise test is
performed in which work rate is increased each minute or less, a range is
observed above the anaerobic threshold within which VE rises as a function
of VC02 (109) in the same direct proportionality as below the threshold.
This observation is supported by the results of studies in which sinusoidal
fluctuations of work rate encroached above the anaerobic threshold by a
small amount (16). This range of work rates has been termed the range of
"isocapnic buffering," although direct support for arterial isocapnia, rather
than mere PErC02 constancy (109), remains to be established. Conse
quently, there appears to be no respiratory compensation for the metabolic
acidosis in this range (i.e. lowering of Paco2)' It is not clear at present why
the ventilatory control system sensors do not "see" the decreased arterial
pH in the phase of isocapnic buffering, while they do apparently respond
if the work rate increment is prolonged to 4 min or more (108, 111)j the

Altered Control
PERIPHERAL NEUROGENIC DRIVE Jaeger-Denavit et al (50) induced
"passive movement of the knees" through 90° at a frequency of I Hz
repeatedly in healthy subjects and in subjects with paraplegia resulting from
clinically complete spinal-cord lesions at T l2. The hyperpnea that normally
occurred on the first "exercise" 1l10vement was absent in the paraplegic
subjects. In a further group of parJtplegics having only partial loss of sensa
tion and movement in the knee region, the first-breath hyperpnea was
significantly reduced compared to control. These authors concluded that
afferents from the limbs play a determining role in the initial ventilatory
response associated with movement. Unfortunately, the simultaneous gas
exchange and alveolar gas tension responses were not reported in this study.
Weissman et al (114) have demonstrated that if exercise is induced in
normal subjects who constrain their VE at the resting level, then alveolar
gas tensions immediately change (PE]'C02 increasing and PE'f02 decreasing)
to reflect the increased pulmonary blood flow without concomitant ventila
tory response. Such measurements would have ruled out the possibility that
the neurological deficit also altered cardiovascular reflexes.
Adams et al (1) have studied the VE response to electrically induced limb
movement in subjects with complete spinal transection at T3; but they also
determined VCO2 and PE]'C02' They found that VE increased on the first
complete respiratory cycle following "exercise" onset similarly to normal
subjects, PE]'C02 being unchanged in both cases. Subsequently, however,
VE rose more slowly to the steady state in the cord-transected subjects. But

as "COz dynamics were similarly slowed, the authors concluded that the
effe:::t of spinal-cord transection on the early VB response to the "exercise"
was a consequence of the slower rate of CO2 delivery to the lungs, rather
than a direct effect of impaired neurogenesis per se. In addition, Asmussen
:et al (4) had previously demonstrated that the VE and PEJC02 responses to
steady-state exercise were normal in a tabetic subject who evidenced com
plete loss of proprioceptive reflexes from the legs and lower trunk.
Jammes et al (52) administered high-frequency mechanical vibration
unilaterally to the tendons of the biceps or triceps brachialis muscles in
nonnal resting subjects, this technique having been shown to stimulate

ons(�t of the period of vibration and that PEJC02 fell. No a�ptation of the
response was apparent. Since the hyperventilation ,occurred even though
cardiac rhythm did not change, the authors concluded (contrary to other
investigators) that actual contraction of the muscle is not a prerequisite for
evoking the VE effects induced by muscle afferent stimulation. However,
unlike the initial hyperpnea1of.moderate dynamic exercise in humans, the
responses to such high-frequency vibration resulted in hypocapnia. Further
more, Hornbein et al (47) could not document significant effects on VE in
exercising humans of selectively blocking the 'Y-efferent system to the legs
(without significant impairment to the a-fibers).
Tibes et al (99) correlated the nonsteady-state changes in VE with those
in the concentrations of various putative chemical mediators of the exercise

neously exercising subjects. Because [K+] correlated better with VE than did
femoral-venous Po2, PC02, pH, lactate, or osmolarity, these authors con
cluded that [K+] in the interstitial fluid was likely to be stimulating the
small-diameter type III and IV muscle afferents. In contrast, Comroe &
Schmidt (17) were unable to induce hyperpnea when venous blood collected
from the exercising limbs of dogs was infused into the arterial supply of limb
muscle.

ties between the role of the hypothalamus (and other limbic structures) in
the integrative response to exercise as a "state," and its known and detailed
role in the induction of rage, arousal, defence etc.
Central neural "reverberation" Eldridge (32) has also suggested that cen
tral neural mechanisms may be important in determining the cf>2 kinetics
of the exercise hyperpnea. Specifically, he has demonstrated that the "res
piratory centers" themselves have neural dynamics capable of sustaining an
hyperpnea despite the removal of the causal stimulus. Rather than an
immediate step-decrease in respiratory activity after abrupt removal of a
carotid body or hindlimb stimulus, an early and abrupt fall was followed
by a slower decline; the mechanism of this slower component was isolated
to the brain stem (32). A similar phenomenon has also been described in
resting humans following the abrupt cessation of a bout of isocapnic voli
tional hyperventilation (97, 98). These findings may be significant for the
cf>2 VE kinetics of exercise, although the on-off symmetry of the cf>2 time
constant in humans is not as evident in the "reverberatory experiments" in

simple additive control system can remain exponential as the carotid body
component assumes progressively greater prominence. Consequently, the
carotid body drive in ¢2 may dictate the speed with which the fundamental
proc,ess (likely within the brainstem respiratory centers) operates, while not
dismpting its underlying exponentiality.
Furthermore, Oren et al (83) determined the influence on the 1>2 VB
kinetics of metabolic acid-base changes induced by the ingestion of am
monium chloride (metabolic acidosis), sodium bicarbonate (metabolic al
kalosis), and calcium carbonate (control), each for three days. The
metabolic acidosis significantly reduced the ¢2 time constant, whereas the
metabolic alkalosis increased it. Because the carotid bodies in humans
appear to be largely responsible for the VE response to relatively acute
metabolic acidosis, and because the ¢2 time constant was lengthened in all
thre(: acid-base states to the same absolute value by hyperoxia, these investi
gators also believe that the carotid bodies in humans are important in
establishing the VE kinetics in ¢2 of exercise.
Subjects who had undergone bilateral carotid body resection evidenced,
on average, appreciably slower than normal kinetics for the 1>2 response to
moderate exercise, despite the magnitUde of the ¢1 and ¢2 components
being unaltered (112). As a consequence, an appreciable respiratory acidosis
resulted during 1>2. Although this is persuasive evidence, more precise
quantification of the actual exponentiality (or the lack of it) of the 1>2
ventilatory reponse and the influence of hyperoxia in such subjects would
be most useful.
There is evidence, too, that the carotid bodies may also contribute to
ventilatory control in ¢3 of moderate exercise. Utilizing the abrupt and
surreptitious substitution of O2 for air, investigators found that the contri
bution of the carotid bodies to the ¢3 hyperpnea appears to be somewhat
greater than at rest (26, 93, 118). However, subjects who had previously
undergone bilateral carotid body resection evidenced a 1>3 response no

different from normal with respect to VB or arterial blood gas tensions (70,
112). One explanation for this is that other (presumably central chemore
ceptor) mechanisms "take over" the normal carotid body component. It is
not clear, however, what "takes over" the reduced carotid body drive in the
carotid body resected subject, although the possibility that the resection
removed a hyperventilatory component (which is commonly observed in
subjects with bronchial asthma) may not be ruled out at present. Further
complicating ready interpretation of the role of the carotid bodies is the
fact that a group of Japanese who had undergone carotid body resection
did evidence a reduction of the hyperpnea of moderate exercise (46), al

The carotid bodies have also been shown to mediate the. respiratory
compensation for the acute metabolic acidosis of heavy and severe exercise;
subjects who had undergone bilateral carotid body resection evidenced no
such compensation (112, 122). It would be interesting to know if subjects
with little or no carotid-body sensitivity to hypoxemia, such as high-altitude
natives (64), also have reduced responses to acute changes of [H+) and,
consequently, less complete respiratory compensation during heavy and
severe exercise.
increased by a mean of 2.5 torr [and by some 4 torr in their subject example:
Figure 1 in (59)], at which time PE'J02 had fallen by about 8 torr and the
gas exchange ratio R by about 0.1. Because these changes were associated
with increased VC02 and VC02, there was clear evidence of increased Q
without hyperpnea. Subsequent increases in VE, beginning approximately
20 sec after the induced tachycardia, were observed and presumably re
sulted from humoral stimulation of the peripheral and central chemorecep
tors by the altered arterial blood-gas composition.
Diversion of a portion of the normal venous return from the venae cavae
into the aorta has been undertaken by several groups in the dog, (the

through the heart and lungs was reduced, either at rest (39, 88, 94) or in
the steady state of exercise (49, 81), hypopnea developed, even inducing
apnea with sufficient thoracic hypoperfusion.
Brown et al (14) examined the role of such a cardiodynamic mechanism
in the steady state of moderate exercise in humans by infusing propranolol
to block ,a-adrenergic receptors. A fall in VE was observed consequent to
the fall in Q; the hypopnea only persisted, however, until mixed venous
CO2 content rose sufficiently to return the pulmonary CO2 flux to normal
(i.e. VC02 was restored to its control exercise level). Consequently, a cardio
dynamic mechanism for a component of the steady-state exercise hyperpnea
appears likely, involving both feedforward and feedback control elements.
domain, and hence a higher core and muscle temperature at the extreme
of the domain, do not hyperventilate. And unless the thermal stimulatory
effects in such subjects are simply offsetting some reduced ventilatory drive
from other sources, a case for a significant influence from body temperature
at these work rates appears remote.
As neither cerebral blood flow, PaC02 or pHa• cerebral metabolic rate. nor
bulk cerebrospinal fluid pH are thought to change with moderate exercise,
it is supposed that no changes in local pH occur in the brainstem interstitial
fluid composition at the sites of central chemoreception. Thus the search

can affect the absolute level of VE, despite an apparently unaltered mean
level.
Finally, Saunders (91) has shown' that one can actually develop a simula
tion of the exercise hyperpnea using only components of the respiratory
relatled oscillatory humoral signal, the upstroke of the PC02 oscillation
provilding the important source of afferent information. Saunders's caveat
to his own work (an undisguised reminder to "modelers" of the respiratory
control system) deserves emphasis: "The fact that exercise and C0z- breath

chemical signal does not imply that it is necessarily an actual source of
