Potential effect of pulmonary fluid viscosity on positive end-expiratory pressure and regional distribution of lung ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome
BACKGROUND: Computational fluid dynamic simulations have showed that the elevated viscosity of pulmonary fluids may increase the likelihood of airway closure, thus exacerbating inhomogeneity of regional lung ventilation. Unfortunately, there have been few studies directed toward measurements of visc...
