Table 4 Model parameters – nominal values and allowable ranges (for N = 100)
From: Can computer simulators accurately represent the pathophysiology of individual COPD patients?
Parameters | Nominal value | Variation ranges |
|---|---|---|
Bronchiolar resistance R Bi [cmH2O∙s/l] | 600 | [300, 3 × 105] |
Vascular resistance R Vi [dyn∙s/cm5] | 1.6 × 104 | [8 × 103, 8 × 106] |
Stiffness coefficient S i [cmH2O/ml2] | 0.05 | [0.025, 0.15] |
Extrinsic pressure Pext,i [cm H2O] | 28.8 | [−20, 28.8] |
