Ventilatory Constraints Influence Physiologic Dead Space in Heart Failure

INTRODUCTION: Heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) exhibit impaired ventilatory efficiency (i.e. greater ventilatory equivalent for carbon dioxide (V(E)/VCO(2)) slope), and elevated physiologic dead space (V(D)/V(T)). However, the impact of breathing strategy on V(D)/V(T) du...
