conductance /con·duc·tance/ (kon-duk´tans) the capacity for conducting or ability to convey. Symbol G.
conductance [kon-duk´tans]
airway conductance the reciprocal of airway resistance; the airflow divided by the mouth-to-alveoli pressure difference.
con·duc·tance (k n-d k tns)n. 1. A measure of a material's ability to conduct electric charge; the reciprocal of the resistance. 2. The ease with which a fluid or gas enters and flows through a conduit, air passage, or respiratory tract. |
conductance [kon-duk´tans]
ability to conduct or transmit, as electricity or other energy or material.
airway conductance in studies of respiration, an expression of the amount of air reaching the alveoli per unit of time per unit of pressure, the reciprocal of airway resistance.
social conductance interaction appropriate to one's environment, making use of manners, respect for personal space, eye contact, gestures, active listening, and self expression; a performance component of occupational therapy.
