More about the book
This book describes the respiratory function of the lungs in a variety of circumstances and indicates how the function can be assessed. The function includes lung ventilation, gas exchange, and lung perfusion with their respective physiological control mechanisms. The circumstances include the resting state, sleep, exercise, abnormal environments, and diseases of the lung and other organs. The applications are in respiratory medicine, including lung function laboratories, and in pediatrics, geriatrics, environmental, occupational, and sports medicine, as well as medico-legal work. The material assembled is also likely to be of use to non-respiratory physiologists, bio-engineers, ergonomists, anthropologists, and other scientists.
