Investigating the effects of laryngotracheal stenosis on upper airway aerodynamics

Objective Very little is known about the impact of laryngotracheal stenosis (LTS) on inspiratory airflow and resistance, especially in air hunger states. This study investigates the effect of LTS on airway resistance and volumetric flow across three different inspiratory pressures. Methods Head‐and‐...
