Clinical trials: Ventilation Perfusion Mismatch
Ventilation Perfusion Mismatch
Effect of Alveolar Minute Ventilation on Respiratory Gas Heat Content
This is a single site, prospective, non-blinded, non-randomized, non-interventional study designed to evaluate the effect of changes in alveolar minute ventilation on the measurement of respiratory heat loss (enthalpy).

Impact of CPAP Level on V/Q Mismatch in Premature Infants
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is used in premature infants to maintain lungs open and facilitate gas exchange. When ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch is present, areas of the lung that are open for gas exchange do…
