Description:Excerpt from The American Journal of Physiology, 1915, Vol. 38A correct estimation of the volume of the respiratory dead space is of fundamental importance in connection with many of the prob lems of the regulation of breathing and related topics. The interpreta tion of the data accumulated by many investigators depends upon the decision of the question whether the dead space is a fixed or a variable quantity. If the latter is the case, what are the nature, cause, and mode of control of such variations?Although earlier investigators recognized the dead space as a factor in to have been the first to report a measure ment of it. By means of a plaster cast of the cavity of the mouth, pharynx, trachea, bronchi and bronchioles of a cadaver he found a vol ume of 144 cc. He noted, however, that in the living subject even in an expiration much smaller than the volume of the dead space there are always to be found-considerable amounts of co2, and that as expira tion progresses the percentage of C02 in successive portions increases gradually, not abruptly: facts which later investigators have not always kept in mind.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
