Relationship Between V̇A/Q̇ Mismatch and Capnogram Phase III Slope in Acute Bronchoconstriction and Its Modulation by Salbutamol Assessed by Synchrotron Imaging in Rabbit Lung

Authors: Bayat S. et al. Anesthesiology, October 20, 2025. DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005807 This experimental study investigated how the slope of phase III (SIII) of the volumetric capnogram relates to ventilation–perfusion (V̇A/Q̇) mismatch in acute bronchoconstriction and how this relationship changes after bronchodilator therapy. Using advanced synchrotron radiation K-edge subtraction imaging, the researchers directly visualized and quantified […]
