On the assumptions of an average respiratory quotient of 0.85 and physiological dead space directly proportional to tidal volume, the relationship between tidal volume, breathing frequency, and body weight has been derived. The standards are presented in a graphic form and as a slide rule. animal ventilation; artificial respiration; tidal volume, breathing frequency and body weight relationship Submitted on August 15, 1963Read More
