This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Pulmonary compliance ¿ defined as the change in volume of the lung per unit change in pressure ¿ is one of the fundamental parameters used in the analysis of lung mechanics, and knowledge of this parameter is important for the study and diagnosis of pulmonary diseases.
