Validation and Clinical Application of a First Order Step Response Equation for Nitrogen Clearance During FRC Measurement

OBJECTIVE: To derive a difference equation based on mass conservation and on alveolar tidal volumes for the calculation of Functional Residual Capacity. Derive an equation for the FRC from the difference equation. Furthermore, to derive and validate a step response equation as a solution of the diff...
