May warrant attention to ventilator frequency in anesthetized patients; leaves open effects on clinical outcomes.
How do different frequencies and amplitudes of mechanical ventilation affect spontaneous breathing patterns in anesthetized adults?
Mechanical ventilation can entrain spontaneous breathing rhythms in anesthetized humans, demonstrating respiratory phase locking dependent on ventilator frequency and amplitude.
Graves et al. (1986) studied this question.
