Chapter 3, Problem 3RQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The rate of flow of gas in and out of the lungs can be used to discern the integrity of the airways. This flow of gas can also be used to observe the severity of the impairment of the airway. The flow rate tests are collectively known as pulmonary mechanic measurements. These measurements are used along with volumes and capacities.
