Mean alveolar pressure during constant-flow and constant-pressure inflation of diseased lungs.
3
TL;DRAbstract
For the same tidal volume, the mean alveolar pressure in different alveoli depends on the type of disease. The difference in mean alveolar pressure between a normal and a diseased alveolus depends on the difference in time constant between those alveoli, regardless of the mode of ventilation.
