The effects of CO2 on respiratory mechanics in anesthetized paralyzed humans.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Perfluorocarbon liquids are being used experimentally and in clinical trials for the treatment of acute lung injury. Their resemblance to inhaled anesthetic agents suggests the possibility of application by vaporization. The authors' aim was to develop the technical means for perfluorocarbon vaporization and...
