Causes of ventilatory inefficiency in lung resection candidates

Introduction Ventilatory efficiency (V′E/V′CO2) has been shown to predict postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in lung resection candidates. V′E/V′CO2 is determined by arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and by dead space to tidal volume ratio (VD/VT). We hypothesised PaCO2 a...
