Clinical Impact of Compensatory Hyperinflation of the Nontreated Adjacent Lobe After Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction with Valves

Background: Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) with endobronchial valves (EBV) can be a successful treatment for end-stage emphysema patients. The reduction of hyperinflation enhances ventilatory mechanics and diaphragm function. Understanding predictors for treatment success is crucial for...
