What's the difference between expiatory and expiratory?

Expiatory


Definition:

  • (a.) Having power, or intended, to make expiation; atoning; as, an expiatory sacrifice.

Example Sentences:

Expiratory


Definition:

  • (a.) Pertaining to, or employed in, the expiration or emission of air from the lungs; as, the expiratory muscles.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Peak Expiratory Flow and Forced Expiratory Mean Flows in the ranges 0-25%, 25-50% and 50-75% of Forced Vital Capacity were significantly reduced in animals exposed to gasoline exhaust fumes, whereas the group exposed to ethanol exhaust fumes did not differ from the control group.
  • (2) However, those studies used partial maximal expiratory flow volume (PMEFV) curves to assess lung function.
  • (3) Further analysis of these changes according to smoking history, age, preoperative weight, dissection of IMA, and aortic cross-clamp time showed that only IMA dissection affected the postextubation changes in peak expiratory flow rate (p less than 0.0001), whereas the decreases in functional residual capacity and expiratory reserve volume at discharge were affected by IMA dissection (p less than 0.05) and age (p = 0.01).
  • (4) Subjects completed questionnaires and performed lung function tests, including forced expiratory (FVC) manoeuvres.
  • (5) Any type of valve element can serve as the expiratory valve.
  • (6) For these augmented breaths, tidal volume, inspiratory time, and expiratory time were not different from the next augmented breath occurring in the same run in the steady state.
  • (7) The ratio of forced expiratory volume in the first second to forced vital capacity was not significantly different between individuals with or without a past history of heart attack, angina pectoris or ECG evidence of coronary heart disease.
  • (8) Maximum expiratory flow on partial flow-volume curve at 25% forced vital capacity (PEF25) was measured as an index showing basal bronchomotor tone.
  • (9) Respiration-related neurons were classified with respect to the correlation of their activity with the activity of the phrenic nerve: phase-bound inspiratory (I) and expiratory (E) neurones and phase-spanning expiratory-inspiratory and inspiratory-expiratory neurones were discriminated.
  • (10) VT returned to control levels, expiratory time shortened, and breathing frequency increased.
  • (11) The level of stability of the ratio (alpha coefficient) of maximal ventilation (MBC) over maximal expiratory volume per second (FEV1) was continued statistically for its practical value in estimating the respiratory functional incapacity.
  • (12) This could distort the relation between height and forced expiratory volume in 1s (FEV1) as age increases.
  • (13) We measured closing volume (CV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV) regional distribution of lung volume (Vr) and perfusion in 7 normal subjects in air and during immersion to the neck in water.
  • (14) Decreasing inadvertent PEEP by lengthening the expiratory time increased the compliance of the respiratory system (r = -0.74, n = 10, P less than 0.02).
  • (15) The relationship between mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and alveolar pressures, at varying tidal volumes and opposing variable pressure to expiratory flow, was studied in 14 healthy dogs at the end of inspiration and at the end of expiration.
  • (16) High-frequency two-way jet ventilation was achieved by adding reverse jet pulses inside the trachea through an intratracheal reverse jet system to the expiratory phase of common high-frequency jet ventilation.
  • (17) Most of these patients were managed without paralysis using intermittent mandatory ventilation and positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP).
  • (18) The results of the study indicated that one or two measurements of maximum expiratory flow calculated from a maximum expiratory flow volume curve and of lung volumes recorded in a body plethysmograph are of value in identifying the child with severe chronic asthma.
  • (19) Maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curves similar to those obtained in most dogs and in some humans could be produced: a peak followed by a gently sloping plateau ending in a knee, where flow suddenly fell to a much smaller value approaching zero rather slowly over the last 25 to 50% of the expired vital capacity.
  • (20) Both types of stimuli caused inhibition of phrenic activity and facilitation of internal intercostal nerve activity, indicating expiratory effort.
