Physiology3
- Physiology of diffusion Terminology Measurement of diffusion capacity Importance in respiratory diseases 3. (web.app)
- The authors have hypothesized that this exercise desaturation is the result of increased shunt physiology, worsening diffusion due to increased pulmonary blood flow with reduced capillary transit time (a physiologic phenomenon called the "diffusion-perfusion defect"), and a reduced mixed venous oxygen content, the impact of which on arterial oxygen saturation is magnified by the former two effects [ 9 ]. (biomedcentral.com)

Measurement1
- However, over the past 15 yrs, the measurement of diffusing capacity of the lung using the transfer gases nitric oxide (NO) and CO together permits one to obtain D m,CO and V c in a single-breath manoeuvre, thus allowing a similar distribution of the two gases and reducing the number of measurements and testing time by half 4 , 5 .
