Zusammenfassung:At each visit, 3 deflationary maneuvers were performed, each consisting of tidal breathing from total lung capacity (TLC) to residual volume (RV) by slowly decreasing the end-expiratory volume on each subsequent breath. Airway distensibility is the calculated slope of the relationship between the values of respiratory system conductance (Grs) at each end-tidal inspiration/expiration (when flow is zero) and their corresponding lung volume.
