Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of palliative oxygen versus room air in relief of breathlessness in patients with refractory dyspnoea: a double-blind, randomised controlled trial

Amy P. Abernethy, +17 more
- 04 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: Since oxygen delivered by a nasal cannula provides no additional symptomatic benefit for relief of refractory dyspnoea in patients with life-limiting illness compared with room air, less burdensome strategies should be considered after brief assessment of the effect of oxygen therapy on the individual patient.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Hypoventilation and Ventilation-Perfusion Redistribution in Oxygen-induced Hypercapnia during Acute Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Tracey D. Robinson, +3 more
- 01 May 2000 - 
TL;DR: An overall reduction in ventilation characterizes oxygen-induced hypercapnia, as an increased dispersion of blood flow from release of hypoxic vasoconstriction occurred to a significant and similar degree in both groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differences in Airway Closure between Normal and Asthmatic Subjects Measured with Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography and Technegas

Gregory G. King, +4 more
- 01 Dec 1998 - 
TL;DR: There is a predictable pattern of airway closure in normal subjects and that it is primarily influenced by pulmonary elastic recoil, probably secondary to allergic inflammation, but this pattern is lost in asthmatic subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Duration of Protection by Inhaled Salmeterol in Exercise-induced Asthma

Sandra D. Anderson, +3 more
- 01 Nov 1991 - 
TL;DR: Salmeterol had a more prolonged action as a bronchodilator and values for FEV 1 were significantly higher compared with those on albuterol at 4.5 and 6.5 hours, and both drugs were effective in inhibiting EIA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled mannitol for the treatment of mucociliary dysfunction in patients with bronchiectasis: Effect on lung function, health status and sputum

Evangelia Daviskas, +7 more
- 01 Jan 2005 - 
TL;DR: Inhaled mannitol increases mucus clearance in patients with bronchiectasis by an unclear mechanism, and this effect on lung function, health status and sputum properties was investigated.
