Surgical Clinics of North America, 1974
A unit for monitoring ventilation, ventilational mechanics, gas distribution, gas diffusion, and pulmonary capillary perfusion of the lungs, suitable for bedside investigation of these functions in very ill patients, is described. This study will hopefully have the same impact on descriptive clinical pathophysiology and treatment of pulmonary disease ...

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1979
Common questions about lung function tests, including why perform these tests, when are they helpful, who can be tested, and which tests are most useful, are answered for the pediatrician. Tests presently used in clinical pulmonary laboratories are described.

Pulmonary function measurements
The American Journal of Surgery, 1954Abstract 1. 1. An accurate evaluation of the degree of pulmonary function impairment may be made from the following physiologic tests: (1) ventilation measurements from spirogram tracings (total vital capacity, three-second vital capacity, maximal breathing capacity and the shape of the exhalation curve following a deep breath); (2) the degree of

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968
All physicians, regardless of their types of practice, are seeing more patients with various forms of chronic lung disease. Pulmonary symptoms may be the primary complaint, or they may become apparent during another illness or after an operation. Pulmonary-function tests offer the means of elucidating the type of physiological impairment present ...

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1969
To the Editor:— The article "Pulmonary-Function Tests" which appeared inThe Journal( 206 :2302, 1968) contains the following statement: "The level of arterial Pco 2 is governed solely by the alveolar ventilation. Elevated Pco 2 means alveolar hypoventilation, and reduced Pco 2 , alveolar hyperventilation." Such a statement ignores the ventilation to ...

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1961
The advantages and limitations of pulmonary function tests are described. A short description of the methods of investigation of the processes involved in respiration is given, viz., the investigation of ventilation, diffusion, pulmonary capillary perfusion and the mechanics of breathing.

Seminars in Neurology, 2003
Patients who suffer from neuromuscular diseases often have complications from respiratory insufficiencies. Some neuromuscular diseases, for example Landry Guillain-Barré syndrome, may only require temporary tracheal intubation; patients with other neuromuscular diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, may decide with the assistance of their ...

New England Journal of Medicine, 1994
Pulmonary-function tests provide objective, quantifiable measures of lung function. They are used to evaluate and monitor diseases that affect heart and lung function, to monitor the effects of environmental, occupational, and drug exposures, to assess risks of surgery, and to assist in evaluations performed before employment or for insurance purposes.

Abstract The principles of pulmonary ventilation are the same for children and adults. Ventilation adjusts to alterations in metabolic demand in the child; but for a given exercise intensity there is a greater ventilation when expressed relative to body mass and a higher energetic cost of breathing in the child compared to the adult ...
