Summary
We have described a device which allows accurate measurements to be made of pulmonary ventilation in rabbits. A pressure proportional to the pressure of the expired air was developed in a perspex chamber specially designed for this purpose. A MPO-2 type oscillograph was used as recorder.
A method of interpreting the respiration curves is given.
