The Influence of Age on Interaction between Breath-Holding Test and Single-Breath Carbon Dioxide Test

Abstract: Introduction. The aim of the study was to compare the breath-holding test and single-breath carbon dioxide test in evaluation of the peripheral chemoreflex sensitivity to carbon dioxide in healthy subjects of different age. Methods. The study involved 47 healthy volunteers between ages of 25 and 85 years. All participants were divided into 4 groups according to age: 25 to 44 years (n = 14), 45 to 60 years (n = 13), 60 to 75 years (n = 12), and older than 75 years (n = 8). Breath-holding test was performed in t… Show more

“…No significant correlation was reported between apnea time and age. These results were also observed in healthy subjects ( Trembach & Zabolotskikh, 2017 ). Moreover, no significant correlation was identified between apnea maximal time and in the study population.…”

“…The mean apnea time reported during our study was 25 ± 8.7 s with values ranging from 10 s to 50 s. This value was not statistically different from that reported by Viecili et al which was 21.6 ± 12.6 s ( t = 1.245; p = .214) ( Viecili et al, 2012 ). Maximum apnea time in COPD subjects has been shown to be significantly shorter than in normal subjects ( Trembach & Zabolotskikh, 2017 ). Indeed, the maximum apnea time is shortened by any factors increasing the tonic activity of the diaphragm or repressing the activity of the respiratory centers such as hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and reduced lung volume ( Parkes, 2006 ).…”

“…In this present study, peri-operative breath holding test of both groups were not significantly different (p > 0.05). Trembach and Zabolotskikh, (2017) showed in their study that increasing age has no effect on this pattern and the duration of breath holding time did not depend on the age [31]. Result of their study indicated a positive correlation between the duration of breath holding and vital lung capacity.…”

“…The breath-hold manoeuvre was performed two to three times with ≥ 5 min pause between consecutive runs and the average duration of the voluntary apnoea was taken as a measure of PCheS (BHT apnoea duration, s). Several papers reported high agreement between BHT and single-breath CO 2 method for PCheS evaluation in healthy subjects 29 , 31 and heart failure patients 30 , however to the authors’ knowledge, the agreement between BHT and the transient hypoxia test has not yet been investigated.…”
