Regional lung deflation with increased airway volume underlies the functional response to bronchodilators in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Abstract Bronchodilators, including long‐acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMAs), improve airflow limitation and lung hyperinflation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). While bronchodilators increase airway caliber and deflate the lungs, little is known about the effects of...
