Novel volumetric capnography indices measure ventilation inhomogeneity in cystic fibrosis

BACKGROUND: Volumetric capnography (VCap) is a simpler alternative to multiple-breath washout (MBW) to detect ventilation inhomogeneity in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). However, its diagnostic performance is influenced by breathing dynamics. We introduce two novel VCap indices, the capnographi...
