ClinConnect Summary
The key pathophysiology of COPD is expiratory flow limit and hyperinflation that is a major factor related exertional dyspnea and exercise limitation. When expiratory minute volume( V ̇E) raise up while exercise, respiratory response by increase respiratory rate (RR) and tidal volume (VT), force exhalation occur lead to develop premature airway closer. These generate dynamic air tapping breath by breath and result in dynamic hyperinflation (DH). The DH limits VT expansion, increase respiratory muscle load, and it is a major cause related dyspnea and exercise termination. Furthermore, Pre-in...
