Li. mg volumes are subdivided into static and dynamic lung volumes. Static lung volumes
are measured by methods which are based on the completeness of respiratory manoeuvres, …

There are various ways of measuring absolute lung volume. These range from measurements
derived from chest radiographs to the more common laboratory measurements employing …

We tested the hypothesis that a simple change in wall composition (medial calcium
overload of elastic fibers) can decrease aortic elasticity. Calcium overload was produced by …

The shape of the capnogram is modified by airway obstruction, and the evaluation of this
deformation, using measurable indices, could allow an indirect measurement of bronchial …

Respiratory mechanics during artificial ventilation are commonly studied with methods which
require a specific respiratory pattern. An alternative is to analyse the relationship between …

Potential advantages of the forced oscillation technique over other methods for monitoring
total respiratory mechanics during artificial ventilation are that it does not require patient …

The recommendations in this 1993 update do not differ materially from those in the previous
report of the EUROPEAN CoMMUNTIY R: JR STEEL AND CoAL [1]. However, the list of …

Respiratory resistance (Rrs) was measured by the forced oscillation technique at 10, 20 and
30 Hz in 54 healthy subjects. The sinusoidal pressure oscillations were applied around the …

Test reproducibility is an important consideration when interpreting results and should be
set as a goal during data collection. Reproducibility criteria may need to be different for …

… In patients with COPO, average resistance from 4 to 30 Hz was significantly Ia-r when the …
