Abstract
Human respiratory permeability is defined in terms of biophysical membrane parameters. Experimental toxicological and infectious models are presented in rats, dogs and sheep. Plasma protein concentrations are assayed in human and experimental models. Therapy includes administration of crystalloids, other macromolecules and colloids along with maintenance of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP).This publication has 72 references indexed in Scilit:
