Breathing pressure-volume relationship

As the lung is stretched, it acts as an expanded balloon that tends to push air out and return to its normal size. The static pressure-volume relationship is nonlinear, exhibiting decreased static compliance at the extremes of lung volume [Johnson, 1991 ]. As with tissue resistance, dynamic tissue compliance does not remain constant during breathing. Dynamic compliance tends to increase with increasing volume and decrease with increasing frequency [Stamenovic et al, 1990]. [Pg.123]
