Hemorrhagic Shock: Blood Marker Sequencing and Pulmonary Gas Exchange [PDF]
Background: The early identification of internal hemorrhage in critically ill patients may be difficult. Besides circulatory parameters, hemoglobin and lactate concentration, metabolic acidosis and hyperglycemia serve as laboratory markers for bleeding ...

Non-invasive Measurement of Pulmonary Gas Exchange Efficiency: The Oxygen Deficit [PDF]
The efficiency of pulmonary gas exchange has long been assessed using the alveolar-arterial difference in PO2, the A-aDO2, a construct developed by Richard Riley ~70years ago.

A lifetime of pulmonary gas exchange. [PDF]
Pulmonary gas exchange is the primary function of the lung, and during my lifetime, its measurement has passed through many stages. When I was born, many physiologists still believed that the lung secreted oxygen. When I was a medical student, the only way we had to recognize defective gas exchange was whether the patient was cyanosed.

Modeling Pulmonary Gas Exchange and Single-Exhalation Profiles of Carbon Monoxide [PDF]
Exhaled breath carbon monoxide (eCO) is a candidate biomarker for non-invasive assessment of oxidative stress and respiratory diseases. Standard end-tidal CO analysis, however, cannot distinguish, whether eCO reflects endogenous CO production, lung ...

Tuberculosis-related lung damage is very different. Lung ventilation disorders have been studied in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) during the active process and after treatment, but the main causes of gas exchange changes have not been ...

Pulmonary hypertension in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis - the predictive value of exercise capacity and gas exchange efficiency. [PDF]
Exercise capacity and survival of patients with IPF is potentially impaired by pulmonary hypertension. This study aims to investigate diagnostic and prognostic properties of gas exchange during exercise and lung function in IPF patients with or without ...

Review of hypoxaemia in the anaesthetized horse: predisposing factors, consequences and management [PDF]
Objectives: To discuss how hypoxaemia might be harmful and why the horse is particularly predisposed to developing it. To review the strategies that are used to manage hypoxaemia in anaesthetised horses, to describe how successful these strategies are
