Compliance & Resistance Overview

This conversation discusses compliance and resistance in mechanical ventilation. Compliance refers to the ability of the lungs to expand, while resistance refers to the obstruction of airflow. The conversation explains the differences between obstructive and restrictive diseases and how they affect compliance and resistance. It also explores the use of peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) and plateau pressure (PLAT) to assess lung function. The relationship between PIP and PLAT can indicate whether the problem is in the airway or the alveoli. The conversation concludes by mentioning that future lectures will delve deeper into lung compliance and airway resistance.
