Body Temperature Synthesis
A program in the computer called Koko spirometry factored the body temperature pressure saturation (BTPS) for the air expansion as it warms from room temperature to body temperature.
The following information was entered into the computer: our initial, date-of-birth, gender and height in inches.
We put a nose clip on to prevent air leakage out of the nose. We waited with our mouth off the mouthpiece to allow the pneumotach to equilibrate. When given a notification, we sealed our mouth onto the mouthpiece and started with tidal breathing.
When the computer sensed stable tidal breathing, we were given the permission to take a large inhalation of air, exhale completely and return to tidal breathing.
The SVC report was printed.
With a copy of the

    Spontaneous breathing in APRV results from diaphragm contraction, which should result in recruitment of dependent alveoli, consequently reducing shunt and improving oxygenation (Daoud et al, 2012. The spontaneous efforts also may enhance both recruitment and cardiac filling as compared with other controlled forms of support (Daoud et al, 2012). The long inflation phase also recruits slowly causing the alveoli to fill and the mean airway pressure to rise without increasing applied PEEP (APRV,…

Needle decompression be required before transport to the hospital, and can be performed by an emergency medical technician or other trained professional.

    Water baths are commonly used to maintain stable temperatures, but this respirometer cannot be used in a water bath. Error is also introduced if there is a change in the atmospheric pressure of the laboratory air outside the apparatus during the experiment. Both of these errors can be corrected by using a second simple respirometer, without respiring organisms, at the same time as the experimental respirometer. The apparatus without organisms acts as a control and readings have to be taken at the same time with both pieces of apparatus.…
