[Studies on the limitation of the body functional capacity by the pulmonary function in chronic bronchitic patients
Abstract:
It is reported on first experiences (18 patients) with investigation of the breathing mechanism during ergometry for the quantification of the respiratory dyspnoea on exertion. The oesophagus-pressure-method is recommended as suitable method. The stopping of the load on account of dyspnoea in the number of patients which above all consisted of obstructive bronchitics was carried out at values for the total breathing capacity (Wtot) of 5 kpm/min and more.
