Research abstract

THE FEASIBILITY OF A DEVICE TO ENABLE PRECISE AND REPEATABLE CALIBRATION OF SINGLE-BREATH LUNG DIFFUSION (DLCO) INSTRUMENTS WILL BE INVESTIGATED. THE CALIBRATOR WILL ENABLE THE ACCURACY OF DLCO INSTRUMENTS TO BE VERIFIED BETWEEN PULMONARY LABORATORIES, ALLOWING GREATER CONFIDENCE IN A DIAGNOSIS BASED ON THE SINGLE BREATH DLCO TEST. THIS STUDY WILL VERIFY THE PERFORMANCE OF A UNIQUE GAS COLLECTION AND MIXING SYSTEM WHICH WILL ALLOW GENERATION OF PRECISE CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) AND HELIUM (HE) GAS FRACTIONS WITHOUT USING GAS ANALYZERS. THIS WILL ALLOW PRODUCTION OF A DLCO CALIBRATOR WHICH WILL NOT REQUIRE ANY CALIBRATION OF ITS OWN.
