RESEARCH AREA<br />
Changes of the cardiovascular system also affect the<br />
respiratory system via heart-lung interactions. Our<br />
research group aims at characterizing mechanical and<br />
functional parameters of the respiratory system both in<br />
animal models and human subjects. Our research area<br />
includes the investigation of respiratory effects of various<br />
diseases (e.g. diabetes mellitus), interventions (e.g. blood<br />
loss or cardiopulmonary bypass), or drugs affecting the<br />
cardiovascular system or other, primarily respiratory<br />
diseases. Our research has a focus on the investigation of<br />
the respiratory effects of various, anaesthesia-related drugs,<br />
interventions, diseases. Our methods include a unique<br />
characterization of respiratory mechanical parameters<br />
with the use of the forced oscillation technique and<br />
measurement of partial pressure of exhaled carbon-dioxide<br />
(capnography).<br />
TECHNIQUES AVAILABLE IN THE LAB<br />
Participation in animal experiments, surgical methods,<br />
performing measurements and analysis of respiratory<br />
mechanical parameters, recording and analysis of vital<br />
parameters. Data analysis methods (R programming<br />
language), statistical analysis of data. Students can also<br />
participate in human experiments of the research group.<br />
