The radius of the pulmonary capillaries in horses has been reported to be ~3 μm and is therefore similar to that in rabbits and dogs. However, compared with the rabbit and dog, the horse has a thicker blood–gas barrier. These characteristics are reflected in the pressures required to cause rupture, which are in the region of 50, 90 and 130 cmH2O in rabbit, dog and horse, respectively (Birks et al 1994). Flow within the pulmonary capillaries is pulsatile, in contrast to the flow in the systemic circulation, which is essentially constant.
Recurrent airway obstruction In human patients with pulmonary diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary hypertension may be observed. Human patients may also develop pulmonary hypertension secondary to hypoventilation via the HPV mechanism. Pulmonary hypertension has been identified in RAO-affected horses (Dixon 1978, Littlejohn & Bowles 1980, Nyman et al 1991a, Benamou et al 1998). e. cor pulmonale). Right ventricular hypertrophy may, however, occur in severe and chronic cases of RAO.
The amount of flow through these anastomoses is determined by the pressure gradient between the bronchial and pulmonary circulations, which is also modulated by the alveolar pressure. In circumstances where the pulmonary circulation is damaged, for example in exerciseinduced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH), the bronchial vasculature can act as an alternative supply. Innervation of the circulation Whilst a considerable amount is known about the innervation of the equine airways, relatively little is known about the innervation of the pulmonary vasculature.
