Analysis of Endogenous Particles in Exhaled Air
… formation showed that deep exhalations to residual volume (RV) caused significantly higher concentrations of particles in the subsequent exhalation than did exhalations to functional residual capacity (FRC).This supports the theory that film rupture during airway reopening after airway …

Influence of tidal volume on pulmonary gas exchange during general anaesthesia
Background and objective: General anaesthesia impairs respiratory function. The present studies were performed to compare arterial concentration of sevoflurane, oxygen and carbon dioxide in normal and overweight patients ventilated with increased tidal volume (VT), or normal tidal volume with and …

Lung mechanics in the aging lung and in acute lung injury. Studies based on sinusoidal flow modulation.
… skin. At Pel 5 cmH2O, roughly corresponding to functional residual capacity, compliance (C) increased with age as previously observed. At Pel values ? 10 cmH2O C decreased with age. The findings may suggest that the lower part of the Pel/V curve in old subjects is influenced by collapsing …

Lung function in perinatally HIV-infected adolescents on antiretroviral therapy in Cape Town, South Africa
… volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC, diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide, respiratory system compliance and functional residual capacity; and higher airway resistance and lung clearance index compared to HIV-uninfected adolescents, p< 0.05 for all. At 24 …
