Recent advances in theoretical models of respiratory mechanics

open access: yesActa Mechanica Sinica/Lixue Xuebao, 2012
As an important branch of biomedical engineering, respiratory mechanics helps to understand the physiology of the respiratory system and provides fundamental data for developing such clinical technologies as ventilators.

Respiratory mechanics in mechanically ventilated patients with respiratory failure

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1985
In 11 mechanically ventilated patients, respiratory mechanics were measured 1) during constant flow inflation and 2) following end-inflation airway occlusion, as proposed in model analysis (J. Appl. Physiol. 58: 1840–1848, 1985. During the latter part of inflation, the relationship between driving pressure and lung volume change was linear, allowing ...

Ventilation and Respiratory Mechanics

Comprehensive Physiology, 2012
Abstract During dynamic exercise, the healthy pulmonary system faces several major challenges, including decreases in mixed venous oxygen content and increases in mixed venous carbon dioxide. As such, the ventilatory demand is increased, while the rising cardiac output means that blood will have considerably less ...

Mechanics of the Respiratory Muscles

Comprehensive Physiology, 2011
Abstract This article examines the mechanics of the muscles that drive expansion or contraction of the chest wall during breathing. The diaphragm is the main inspiratory muscle. When its muscle fibers are activated in isolation, they shorten, the dome of the diaphragm descends, pleural pressure (

Respiratory Mechanics, Lung Recruitability, and Gas Exchange in Pulmonary and Extrapulmonary Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Critical Care Medicine, 2019
Objectives: Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a clinical syndrome characterized by a refractory hypoxemia due to an inflammatory and high permeability pulmonary edema secondary to direct or indirect lung insult (pulmonary and extrapulmonary form ...

Mechanics of respiratory muscles

Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2008
Lung ventilation is a mechanical process in which the respiratory muscles are acting in concert to remove air in and out of the lungs. Any alteration in the performance of the respiratory muscle may reduce the effectiveness of ventilation. Thus, early diagnosis of their weakness is vital for treatment and rehabilitation. Different techniques, which are

How to breathe? Respiratory mechanics and breathing pattern.

Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2019
On theoretical grounds any given level of pulmonary or alveolar ventilation can be obtained at various absolute lung volumes and through many combinations of tidal volume, breathing frequency and inspiratory and expiratory timing.
