Dead space and CO(2 )elimination related to pattern of inspiratory gas delivery in ARDS patients

INTRODUCTION: The inspiratory flow pattern influences CO(2 )elimination by affecting the time the tidal volume remains resident in alveoli. This time is expressed in terms of mean distribution time (MDT), which is the time available for distribution and diffusion of inspired tidal gas within residen...
