ABSTRACT:
Method and means for maintaining respiratory gas exchange, by introducing into the pulmonary air passages of a mammalian host a volume of perfluorocarbon liquid substantially equivalent to the pulmonary functional residual capacity of the host, maintaining respiratory gas exchange in the perfluorocarbon liquid-laden pulmonary air passages by continuous positive pressure breathing with a conventional respirator, for up to an hour or more, and thereafter evaporating the perfluorocarbon liquid from the pulmonary air passages. Useful for treating pulmonary surfactant deficiency or dysfunction.
