Pulmonary gas exchange in elderly subjects.
Although important alterations in structure and function develop with age, the hypothesis that the lungs are capable of maintaining adequate gas exchange for the maximum human life span is generally accepted. This hypothesis was examined by measuring arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide tension (Pa,O2 and Pa,CO2) alveolo-arterial differences in oxygen and carbon dioxide tension (PA-a,O2 and Pa-A,...
متن کاملPulmonary gas exchange during histamine-induced bronchoconstriction in asthmatic subjects.
Bronchial provocation for testing airway hyperreactivity is now well-established. However, the effects of histamine-induced bronchoconstriction on pulmonary gas exchange in man have not been systematically studied. We empirically noted marked decreases in PaO2 in some asthmatic subjects following induced bronchoconstriction. Nine subjects with mild, stable asthma were studied, each on two separ...

altitude either during physical maturation (at age 10±4 yr) or as adults (at age 26±4 yr). The relative degree of acclimatization achieved in these lowland residents was assessed through their comparison both with normal sea-level values and with two additional groups of short-term sojourners and natives to 3,100 m. DLco at rest and work was significantly elevated above normal and above sojourn...
متن کاملPulmonary gas exchange in diving.
Diving-related pulmonary effects are due mostly to increased gas density, immersion-related increase in pulmonary blood volume, and (usually) a higher inspired Po(2). Higher gas density produces an increase in airways resistance and work of breathing, and a reduced maximum breathing capacity. An additional mechanical load is due to immersion, which can impose a static transrespiratory pressure ...
