| ventilation/perfusion ratio | The ratio of alveolar ventilation to simultaneous alveolar capillary blood flow in any part of the lung; because both ventilation and perfusion are expressed per unit volume of tissue and per unit time, which cancel, the units become liters of gas per liter of blood.

| inverse | 1. Opposite in order, relation, or effect; reversed; inverted; reciprocal; opposed to direct. 2. <botany> Inverted; having a position or mode of attachment the reverse of that which is usual. 3. <mathematics> Opposite in nature and effect; said with reference to any two operations, which, when both are performed in succession upon any quantity, reproduce that quantity; as, multiplication is the inverse operation to division. The symbol of an inverse operation is the symbol of the direct operation with -1 as an index. Thus sin -1 x means the arc whose sine is x. <geometry> Inverse figures, two points lying on a line drawn from the center of a fixed circle or sphere, and so related that the product of their distances from the center of the circle or sphere is equal to the square of the radius. <mathematics> Inverse, or Reciprocal, ratio, the ratio of the reciprocals of two quantities. Inverse, or Reciprocal, proportion, an equality between a direct ratio and a reciprocal ratio; thus, 4: 2:: 1/3: 1/6, or 4: 2:: 3: 6, inversely. Origin: L. Inversus, p. P. Of invertere: cf. F. Inverse. See Invert. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| inverse anaphylaxis | Anaphylactic shock in an animal (e.g., guinea pig) whose tissues contain Forssman antigen, resulting from an intravenous injection of serum that contains Forssman's antibody. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inverse density dependence | <epidemiology> See density dependence. (05 Dec 1998) |
| inverse ocular bobbing | Slow downward eye movement followed by delayed quick upward return. (05 Mar 2000) |

| inverse syntropy | A situation in which the presence of one disease tends to decrease the possibility of another. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolar ventilation | The volume of gas expired from the alveoli to the outside of the body per minute; calculated as the respiratory frequency (f) multiplied by the difference between tidal volume and the dead space (VT -VD); units: ml/min BTPS. (05 Mar 2000) |
| artificial ventilation | Application of mechanically or manually generated pressures, usually positive, to gas(es) in or about the airway as a means of producing gas exchange between the lungs and surrounding atmosphere. Synonym: artificial respiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| assist-control ventilation | Artificial respiration in which inspiration is produced automatically after a set interval if the person has not already begun to inspire. Compare: assisted ventilation, controlled ventilation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| assisted mechanical ventilation | <anaesthetics> The use of a mechanical device to fill the lungs with oxygenated air then allow time for passive exhalation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| assisted ventilation | Application of mechanically or manually generated positive pressure to gas(es) in or about the airway during inhalation as a means of augmenting movement of gases into the lungs. Synonym: assisted respiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| manual ventilation | Intermittent manual compression of a gas-filled reservoir bag to force gases into a patient's lungs and thus maintain oxygenation and carbon dioxide elimination during apnea or hypoventilation. (05 Mar 2000) |
