| 설명 | 혈압이란 혈관에 걸리는 압력을 말하는 것으로 대개 특별한 설명이 없으면 동맥의 압력을 말한다. 혈압에는 수축기혈압(systolic blood pressure)과 이완기혈압(diastolic blood pressure)이 있다. 수축기혈압이란 심장이 수축할 경우에 동맥에 걸리는 압력을 말하고, 이완기 혈압이란 심장이 이완할 경우에 동맥에 걸리는 압력을 말한다. 당연히 수축기 혈압이 이완기 혈압보다 높다. 혈압을 말할 때에 예를 들어 120/80mmHg이라고 적는 것의 앞의 것은 수축기 혈압을 의미하고 뒤에 적는 80은 이완기 혈압을 의미한다. |

| ventilation perfusion scanning | <investigation, radiology> A nuclear medicine test that involves the inhalation of a radioactive gas and the injection of a radioactive compound into the bloodstream. A special camera measures the radioactive compound and generates a image of the lungs. Comparisons are made between the images generated. Pulmonary embolism can be diagnosed using this procedure.

| maximal voluntary ventilation | Measure of the maximum amount of air that can be breathed in and blown out over a sustained interval such as 15 or 20 seconds. Common abbreviations are mvv and mbc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| maximum voluntary ventilation | The volume of air breathed when an individual breathes as deeply and as quickly as possible for a given time (e.g., 15 sec.). Synonym: maximum breathing capacity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mechanical ventilation | <anaesthetics> Mechanically assisted breathing using a electrically powered device that forces oxygenated air into the lungs and then allow time for passive exhalation of air. (27 Sep 1997) |
| middle ear ventilation | Ventilation of the middle ear in the treatment of secretory (serous) otitis media, usually by placement of tubes or grommets which pierce the tympanic membrane. (12 Dec 1998) |
| wasted ventilation | That part of the pulmonary ventilation which is ineffective in exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide with pulmonary capillary blood; calculated as physiologic dead space multiplied by respiratory frequency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| controlled mechanical ventilation | Artificial ventilation in which all inspirations are provided by positive pressure applied to the airway. Synonym: continuous positive pressure breathing, continuous positive pressure ventilation, intermittent positive pressure breathing, intermittent positive pressure ventilation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| controlled ventilation | Intermittent application of mechanically or manually generated positive pressure to gas(es) in or about the airway as a means of forcing gases into the lungs in the absence of spontaneous ventilatory efforts. Synonym: controlled respiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| high-frequency jet ventilation | Respiratory support system used primarily with rates of about 100 to 200/min with volumes of from about one to three times predicted anatomic dead space. Used to treat respiratory failure and maintain ventilation under severe circumstances. (12 Dec 1998) |
| high-frequency ventilation | Ventilatory support system using frequencies from 60-900 cycles/min or more. Three types of systems have been distinguished on the basis of rates, volumes, and the system used. They are high frequency positive-pressure ventilation (hfppv), high-frequency jet ventilation (hfjv), and high-frequency oscillation (hfo). (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulmonary ventilation | The process of exchange of air between the lungs and the ambient air. Pulmonary ventilation is a measure of the rate of ventilation expressed usually in liters per minute. (12 Dec 1998) |
| spontaneous intermittent mandatory ventilation | Intermittent mandatory ventilation spontaneously initiated by the patient, to increase tidal volume, and subsequently synchronised with patient's respiratory cycle. Synonym: synchronised intermittent mandatory ventilation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| synchronised intermittent mandatory ventilation | Intermittent mandatory ventilation spontaneously initiated by the patient, to increase tidal volume, and subsequently synchronised with patient's respiratory cycle. Synonym: synchronised intermittent mandatory ventilation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intermittent mandatory ventilation | Mechanical application of positive pressure at a predetermined frequency to the airway to increase tidal volume. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lung ventilation agents | <radiology> Xe-133, most commonly used, Xe-127, t = 36.4 days; photons @ 172, 203, 375 keV, can image V after Q, Kr-81m, very expensive, t = 13 sec; photon 190 keV, can repeat V in each projection, Tc-99m DTPA aerosol, can image V in mult. Projections, image Q after V, 1 mCi most likely to be 50-75 mrad to lung, V/Q imaging (12 Dec 1998) |
