A member asked:
What does a reduced airway resistance ram mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Airway Resistance: Puzzling question as term used in technical literature and ICU medicine related to ventilated individuals. Not sure what you mean and what "ram" refers to. Its complicated and best explained to you by the pulmonologist with whom you might be talking. It can also be related to asthma but again, discuss this in person with a trained clinician. Thank you.
