effect of diffusion in the respiratory tree on the alveolar amplitude response technique (AART)
JP Whiteley‚ DJ Gavaghan and CEW Hahn
Abstract
Theoretical data for the alveolar amplitude response technique (AART) (J. Appl. Physiol. 41 (1976) 419-424) for assessing lung function was simulated using a single path lung model. This model takes account of stratified inhomogeneities in gas concentrations within the respiratory tree. The data was inserted into previously published parameter recovery techniques that may be used to estimate dead-space volume, alveolar volume and cardiac output. These parameter recovery
