PFT5 Nitrogen Washout

[@hb2088]

Informative. Instructive good technique. Looks like Medgraphics equipment. Body Plethysmography has many advantages as well. Some patients potentially will "never" washout.

Hi, thanks for the video! Great explanation, and I loved seeing the test being explained in real time. I was wondering if you could explain the difference between minimum air volume (MAV) and functional residual capacity (FRC)? Are these two essentially the same thing, and if so, which is a more appropriate term to use?

Hi. Im interested in using the Optiflow device to prevent desaturation during rapid sequence induction of anesthesia. I wonder if it could achieve N2 washout even if someone is able to inspire room air orally.....? Could I use the optiflow device in conjunction with this test but have the patient inspiring normal air orally......?

Are you speaking about Second Gas effect?
