|---|---|
| (The effect of massive weight loss on arterial oxygenation and pulmonary function tests.) Among PFTs, ________ has the most significant (P less than 0.001) improvement with weight loss. | expiratory reserve volume (ERV) |
| (The effect of massive weight loss on arterial oxygenation and pulmonary function tests.) Describe clinically relevant differences after weight loss in FEV1, FVC, or MMEF | No clinically relevant differences were found |
| (The effect of massive weight loss on arterial oxygenation and pulmonary function tests.) how does delta BMI > 20 or delta wt (change in pct of ideal weight) effect Pao2? | A delta BMI of greater than 20 or a delta wt more than 100 per cent resulted in a significant improvement in Pao2 (P less than 0.01) or P(A-a)o2 (P less than 0.05) |
| (The effect of massive weight loss on arterial oxygenation and pulmonary function tests.) regarding morbidly obese pat's, comment on improvement of FEV1, FVC, MMEF ERV with massive weight loss. | no meaningfully improve FEV1, FVC, or MMEF with massive weight loss. ERV - significant improvement |
| what happens to lung volumes as body weight increases. | decreases |
| what happens to FRC as body weight increases. | decreases |
| what happens to ERV as body weight increases. | decreases |
| the FRC of a person with a BMI of 30 kg/m2, who is on the borderline between overweight and mild obesity,32 is only 75%; and ERV is only 47% of the values for a person with a BMI of 20 kg/m2. |
