BT_PO 1.16 Describe the factors affecting airway resistance and how airway resistance may be measured

TRUE/FALSE An increase in airway resistance will cause a decrease in FEV1

TRUE/FALSE Airway resistance measurement with an oesophageal balloon is inaccurate in severe airways disease

TRUE/FALSE Airway resistance is highest in the terminal bronchioles

TRUE/FALSE Flow in medium sized airways is laminar

TRUE/FALSE Airway conductance is linearly related to lung volume
