Abstract

Sensor errors that elevated values of N2 concentration in commercial multiple-breath washout (MBW) devices resulted in errors in calculated parameters including Scond and Sacin. We examined the mechanism of the change in values produced by these errors and explored the appropriateness of the calculation of Scond and Sacin. This work serves to emphasize that the current algorithm in use is appropriate for the calculation of Scond and Sacin.
