Forced expirations and maximum expiratory flow-volume curves during sustained microgravity on SLS-1

open access: yes, 1996
Gravity is known to influence the mechanical behavior of the lung and chest wall. However, the effect of sustained microgravity (microG) on forced expirations has not previously been reported. Tests were carried out by four subjects in both the standing

Continuous Respiratory Oscillometry in Pediatric Laparoscopic Surgery—The COMET Study

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Laparoscopic appendectomy is the accepted surgical approach for appendicitis in centers worldwide. Laparoscopic surgery requires the creation of a pneumoperitoneum to facilitate surgical access. Laparoscopic surgery affects the respiratory mechanics of patients under general anesthesia.
