Hyperpolarized Xe MR imaging of alveolar gas uptake in humans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
One of the central physiological functions of the lungs is to transfer inhaled gases from the alveoli to pulmonary capillary blood. However, current measures of alveolar gas uptake provide only global information and thus lack the sensitivity and ...

A Multivariable Index for Grading Exercise Gas Exchange Severity in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Heart Failure

open access: yesPulmonary Medicine, 2012
Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and heart failure (HF) display many abnormalities in respiratory gas exchange. These abnormalities are accentuated with exercise and track with disease severity.

PATHOLOGIC PHYSIOLOGY OF EXACERBATIONS OF CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE

open access: yesВестник анестезиологии и реаниматологии, 2019
The lecture describes the mechanisms of deterioration of respiratory exchange during exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It has been demonstrated that the rapid diagnosis and treatment of exacerbations is an important part of ...

Simulation and Analysis of an Integrated Cardiopulmonary Gas Exchange Model Under Different Pathological Conditions

open access: yesIEEE Access
The development of individualised diagnosis and treatment plans depends on accurate modelling of cardiopulmonary dynamics. A comprehensive cardiopulmonary model that incorporates gas exchange, lung mechanics and cardiovascular interactions has been ...

Characterizing Pulmonary Gas Exchange in Inborn Errors of Immunity Using Hyperpolarized Xenon MRI

open access: yesJournal of Human Immunity
RationaleInborn errors of immunity (IEIs) predispose individuals to recurrent respiratory infections and immune dysregulation, which together can drive inflammatory lung complications, including interstitial lung disease and thickening of the ...

Understanding alveolarization to induce lung regeneration

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background Gas exchange represents the key physiological function of the lung, and is dependent upon proper formation of the delicate alveolar structure. Malformation or destruction of the alveolar gas-exchange regions are key histopathological hallmarks

The Usefulness of Submaximal Exercise Gas Exchange in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: A Case Series

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2010
Introduction Submaximal exercise gas exchange may be a useful tool to track responses to therapy in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. Methods Three patients diagnosed with idiopathic PAH, on differing therapies, were included.

Management of two circulations in a COVID‐19 patient with secondary superinfection

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
Optimal oxygenation in the intensive care unit requires adequate pulmonary gas exchange, oxygen‐carrying capacity in the form of hemoglobin, sufficient delivery of oxygenated hemoglobin to the tissue, and an appropriate tissue oxygen demand. In this Case
