The Effect of Pendelluft and Dead Space on Nitrogen Clearance: Mathematical and Experimental Models and their Application to the Study of the Distribution of Ventilation*

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Reinspired mixed dead space gas and Pendelluft may be considered to be part of a single process of interalveolar gas transfer. The effect of interalveolar gas transfer on nitrogen clearance from a two chamber lung model can be described by a single set of equations which hold for synchronous, and series ventilation.
