In heart failure abnormalities of pulmonary function are frequently observed particularly during exercise, which is characterized by hyperpnea, low tidal volume, early expiratory flow limitation and reduced lung compliance. Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) is increased in asthma. We evaluated whether a correlation between exhaled NO and lung mechanics exists during exercise in heart failure.

Abstract

In heart failure abnormalities of pulmonary function are frequently observed particularly during exercise, which is characterized by hyperpnea, low tidal volume, early expiratory flow limitation and reduced lung compliance. Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) is increased in asthma. We evaluated whether a correlation between exhaled NO and lung mechanics exists during exercise in heart failure.
