Targeted Versus Continuous Delivery of Volatile Anesthetics During Cholinergic Bronchoconstriction
2018
Journal of Engineering and Science in Medical Diagnostics and Therapy
This lack of response may have resulted from an insufficient dose of the anesthetic to cause bronchodilation, or from the preferential distribution of air flow with inhaled anesthetic delivery to less ...
To test this hypothesis, we designed a delivery system for precise timing of inhaled volatile anesthetics during the course of a positive pressure breath. ...
