We investigated the effect of high tidal volume (HV) ventilation on adult and newborn rats, by examining pulmonary injury and cytokine mRNA. Based on compliance, edema formation and histology, ventilation with 25 mL kg-1 was more injurious to adult rats than newborns. Ventilation with 40 mL kg-1 minimally affected compliance in newborns, but caused death in adults. Ventilation of adults for 30 minutes at 25 mL kg-1 up-regulated the mRNA expression of IL-1 , IL-6, TNF- , MIP-2 and IL-10, while in newborns such ventilation only increased mRNA expression of MIP-2 and IL-10. When tidal volume was raised to 40 mL kg-1 in newborns, IL-1 mRNA levels were additionally increased at 30 minutes, while ventilation for 3 hours additionally increased IL-6 and TNF- mRNA. In newborns, the addition of 100% O2 to 30 minutes ventilation blunted the HV induction of IL-1 , IL-10 and MIP-2 mRNA expression, while at 3 hours, 100% O2 concentration synergistically increased the mRNAs for TNF- and IL-6. Overall, adult rats are more susceptible to HV-induced lung injury compared to newborns. In newborns the inflammatory response is dependent on tidal volume, duration and supplemental O2. Thus, recommendations for tidal volume limitation based on adult data may be inappropriate for newborns.
