THE present study was undertaken to determine if the pattern of ventilation, by itself, may influence oxygenation during anesthesia and surgery. The hypothesis was examined that progressive pulmonary ...
A discrepancy between the predicted ventilation standards and the actual ventilation requirements may be caused by an increase in the physiologic dead space or by an increased carbon dioxide ...
Introduction: Patients undergoing lung cancer (LC) surgery often develop pulmonary infection (PI) due to poor sputum excretion ability leading to accumulation of secretions. Bronchoalveolar lavage ...

Hypoxemia is defined as a condition where arterial oxygen tension or partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) is below the normal value, which is typically between 80 and 100 mmHg. Alveolar ventilation is ...
High-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) might have reduced need for endotracheal intubation for persistent hypercapnia during acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive ...
Objective: To obtain optimal titration of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during mechanical ventilation with functional residual capacity and ventilation homogeneity measurements. Design: ...
The volume and composition of fluid on the surface of the alveoli can affect alveolar ventilation, gas diffusion, and macrophage function. The passive permeability and active processes of the alveolar ...
The definition of the respiratory input in experimental human exposure to volatile solvents was examined on theoretical grounds. The respiratory rate of input may be defined as the rate of uptake that ...
