The Respiratory System 2013-10-08 .txt text/plain 28083 1539 48 After airway occlusion at mid-expiration, there is a biphasic change in P ao : the immediate rapid rise in P ao represents the resistive pressure drop across the conducting airways and is followed by a secondary slower increase in P ao (often referred to as P dif ) generally attributed to stress recovery in the respiratory tissues (lung and chest wall) and gas redistribution associated with ventilation inhomogeneity (Bates et al. To describe flow (F), lung volumes (V), and respiratory pressure (P) measurements together with resistance (R) and compliance (C) measurements in restrictive lung diseases, obstructive lung diseases, and neuromuscular disorders (NMD) decrease in TLC, in general, is relatively less than that of VC because of normal chest wall recoil and inspiratory muscle function in most patients (Martinez and Flaherty 2006) . ./cache/cord-024183-1mrdjc39.txt ./txt/cord-024183-1mrdjc39.txt
