Evaluation of diffusing capacity in patients with a restrictive lung disease.
BACKGROUND In healthy volunteers, the single-breath diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) decreases and DLCO normalized per liter alveolar volume (VA; DLCO/VA) increases if VA is decreased. We hypothesized that comparison of DLCO/VA with its predicted value at predicted total lung capacity (TLC) will result in an underestimation of the diffusion disorder in patients with a r...

متن کاملModelling of Diffusing Capacity Measurement Results in Lung Microangiopathy Patients
Background: Lung microangiopathy is a little known negative influence of diabetes mellitus on the functioning of the lungs. In current medical practice lung microangiopathy is diagnosed by comparing two measurements of lung diffusing capacity – once with the subject standing and once with the subject lying down. The necessity to take two measurements is inconvenient. Objectives: The aim of this...
متن کاملDeterminants of exercise capacity in cystic fibrosis patients with mild-to-moderate lung disease
BACKGROUND Adult patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) frequently have reduced exercise tolerance, which is multifactorial but mainly due to bronchial obstruction. The aim of this retrospective analysis was to determine the mechanisms responsible for exercise intolerance in patients with mild-to-moderate or severe disease. METHODS Cardiopulmonary exercise testing with blood gas analysis at peak ...
