Transport of gases in high-frequency ventilation

We found that the transport of gases in oscillating gas columns was proportional to oscillation frequency and the square of oscillation amplitude. When these results were applied to high-frequency oscillation and high-frequency jet ventilation in dogs, alveolar ventilation was proportional to freque...

Zusammenfassung:We found that the transport of gases in oscillating gas columns was proportional to oscillation frequency and the square of oscillation amplitude. When these results were applied to high-frequency oscillation and high-frequency jet ventilation in dogs, alveolar ventilation was proportional to frequency and to the square of tidal volume, and inversely proportional to anatomic dead space.
