Understanding DLCO Mechanical Simulation Results
This previously broadcast presentation will briefly review the calculation of a single-breath diffusing capacity. Understanding the major components required to calculate DLco will enable participants to identify primary variables measured during a mechanical simulation study. A discussion of these variables will help viewers improve identification of potential problems and subsequent troubleshooting strategies.
