Effect of hyperlipidaemia on pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide.
There is conflicting evidence on the effect of hyperlipidaemia on pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO or TLCO) in man. We have measured the carbon monoxide transfer factor per unit alveolar volume (TLCO/VA or KCO) by the single breath method in 25 patients with hyperlipidaemia, and in three normal subjects before and after infusions of an intravenous fat emulsion, Intralipid....
متن کاملPulmonary Diffusing Capacity in Mitral Valve Disease.
While the pulmonary diffusing capacity is now accepted as an important test of lung function, comparatively little application of the test has been made in patients suffering from cardiac disorders. Bates, Boucot, and Dormer (1955) were the first to describe a simple and reliable means for estimating gaseous diffusion, using the steady state carbon monoxide technique. MacNamara, Prime, and Sinc...
متن کاملPulmonary diffusing capacity in left ventricular dysfunction.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are any consistent spirometric or Dsb findings in patients with LV dysfunction characterized by a clinical diagnosis of CHF and an EF less than 40 percent. We performed spirometry and Dsb in 34 patients, and found that EF correlated only with Dsb. When we separated the patients into those with rales and those without, Dsb correlated stron...
متن کاملPulmonary diffusing capacity in disorders of the pulmonary circulation.
The pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide was measured by single breath (DcoSB) and steady state (DcoSS) techniques in 48 patients with various pulmonary circulatory disorders and the results compared with the type of hemodynamic abnormality. Patients with pure inflow obstruction (primary pulmonary hypertension, recurrent pulmonary emboli) had the lowest Dco (mean DcoSB = 14.3 ml/min...
متن کاملThe effect of cardiac rehabilitation exercises on functional capacity and Ejection fraction in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery
Aims: The use of rehabilitation programs is effective in heart patients. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determination the effect of cardiac rehabilitation exercises on functional capacity and ejection fraction in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Materials & Methods: For this purpose, 16 cardiac patients of Fatemeh Zahra Sari heart center who underwent CABG s...
