Session information
- Title:
- 07b_03_08 Mechanics of Ventilation and the Effect of IPPV on the Lungs
- Description:
- This session continues to look at respiratory mechanics. Lung compliance and the role of surfactant are discussed as are the factors determining whether airflow is laminar or turbulent. Respiratory function tests will also be explained.
