Dynamic hyperinflation is a common cause of dyspnea and functional limitation in patients
with emphysema. Dynamic hyperinflation occurs in individuals with air-flow limitation when …

Introduction High-intensity noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been shown to improve
outcomes in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients. However, there is …

Objectives To determine whether in infants with bronchiolitis admitted to a pediatric intensive
care unit (PICU) the starting rate for high‐flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy set by the …

Background: Dynamic hyperinflation due to increased respiratory frequency during exercise
is associated with limitations in exercise capacity in patients with moderately severe chronic …

Dynamic hyperinflation (DH) during exercise is associated with both dyspnea and exercise
limitation in COPD. Metronome-paced tachypnoea (MPT) is a simple alternative for studying …

Background: A simple technique to measure dynamic hyperinflation (DH) in patients with
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the metronome-paced tachypnea test …

Methods The method described here is simple, short in duration, and repeatable (10). The
equipment needed is a spirometer that gives volume-versus-time plots and an electronic …

Shortness of breath dominates the symptomatology of pulmonary arterial hypertension
(PAH). Yet these patients hyperventilate all the time: during exercise, at rest, and even …

New Findings What is the central question of this study? The study aimed to establish a
novel model to study the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)‐related …

Background Many patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) experience
dyspnoea during exercise, resulting in a reduction of physical activity (PA). Dynamic …
