Effect of change in tidal volume on left to right shunt across ventricular septal defect in children – A pilot study

Effect of change in tidal volume on left to right shunt across ventricular septal defect in children – A pilot study

Background : Pulmonary vascular resistance, an important determinant of shunting across ventricular septal defects (VSD), rises at both extremes of lung volume. Aims : We sought to determine the effect of changes in tidal volumes (VT) on pulmonary blood flow (Qp), systemic blood flow (Qs), and shunt...
