Postanesthesia lung volumes
The author provides an overview of the various postoperative therapeutic regimens for surgical patients recovering from anesthesia. Because anesthesia care begins preoperatively and continues well into the postoperative period, a thorough understanding of the altered pulmonary physiology caused by anesthesia, narcotics and surgery, as well as the appropriate implementation of postoperative resp...
متن کاملPost-mortem lung volumes.
The volumes of 78 adult human lungs at necropsy after fixation with intrabronchial 10% formaldehyde at a transpulmonary pressure of 25 cm of water (VL) were similar to their total lung capacity (TLC) as assessed radiologically (VX). Corrected for stature, VL and VX did not increase with age in non-emphsematous lungs, nor did the radio of VL to VX (VL/VX) change with age. VL and VX relative to b...
متن کاملLung volumes in 4,774 patients with obstructive lung disease.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To determine the correlates of static lung volumes in patients with airways obstruction, and to determine if static lung volumes differ between asthma and COPD. PATIENTS AND METHODS We examined the data from all of the adult patients (mean age of 69) who were referred to a pulmonary function laboratory from January 1990 through July 1994 with an FEV1/FVC ratio of < 0.70 and t...
متن کاملLung volumes in COPD: not only the total lung capacity.
We read with extreme interest the recently published work by O’Donnell and colleagues (May 2010). 1 Comparing lung volumes obtained using different techniques in a sample of patients with severe airfl ow limitation, the authors conclude that plethysmography systematically overestimates lung volumes with regard to gas dilution and thoracic imaging techniques. We believe it is meritorious to asse...
متن کاملLung volumes and emphysema in smokers with interstitial lung abnormalities.
BACKGROUND Cigarette smoking is associated with emphysema and radiographic interstitial lung abnormalities. The degree to which interstitial lung abnormalities are associated with reduced total lung capacity and the extent of emphysema is not known. METHODS We looked for interstitial lung abnormalities in 2416 (96%) of 2508 high-resolution computed tomographic (HRCT) scans of the lung obtaine...
