Evaluation of a mobile unit for indirect calorimetry during spontaneous ventilation. 1986

E Forsberg, and M Carlsson, and A Thörne, and G Hedenstierna, and O Björkman

The Mijnhardt Oxycon-4 (OX-4), designed for measurements of gas exchange during exercise using a mouth-piece, was adapted for use in recumbent patients by the introduction of a transparent canopy and a suction device. This system was evaluated in laboratory models and in patients.
