Generalized estimation of the ventilatory distribution from the multiple-breath washout: a bench evaluation study
BACKGROUND: The multiple-breath washout (MBW) is able to provide information about the distribution of ventilation-to-volume (v/V) ratios in the lungs. However, the classical, all-parallel model may return skewed results due to the mixing effect of a common dead space. The aim of this work is to exa...
