  • (19) It facilitated the acquisition of quantitative velocity information with standard Doppler ultrasound techniques by identifying areas of high velocity or turbulent flow and was invaluable in the assessment of anomalous pulmonary venous drainage occurring either as an isolated anomaly or in conjunction with complex intracardiac lesions.
  • (20) We investigated the in vivo phospholipidosis-inducing potency of AM and its major nonpolar metabolite, desethylamiodarone (DEA), in rats, their ability to inhibit phospholipases, and also the effects on pulmonary uptake of [14C] AM.

Respiratory


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to respiration; serving for respiration; as, the respiratory organs; respiratory nerves; the respiratory function; respiratory changes.

  • (6) During the procedure, acute respiratory failure developed as a result of tracheal obstruction.
  • (7) They are best explained by interactions between central sympathetic activity, brainstem control of respiration and vasomotor activity, reflexes arising from around and within the respiratory tract, and the matching of ventilation to perfusion in the lungs.
