Pulmonary edema may activate lung receptors in dogs; hypothesis-generating for human reflex responses and requires clinical validation.
Does cardiogenic and noncardiogenic pulmonary edema stimulate rapidly adapting receptors and pulmonary C-fibre receptors in dogs?
Pulmonary edema, whether cardiogenic or noncardiogenic, activates rapidly adapting receptors and pulmonary C-fibre receptors, which may mediate reflex respiratory responses.
C. T. Kappagoda (1992) studied this question.
