Anne Schulz Sep 23, 2023:
why they might use QC for débit cardiaque Q or, rather, Q-dot (Q with a dot on top) is commonly used in biophysics to denote a flow (=volume per time). You may have encountered it in context with the "V/Q ratio" (ventilation/perfusion ratio) of the lungs. (This does not mean I agree with the interpretation; I honestly can't make head or tail of this.)

Thanks dwt2. Thanks for that information. Would you know why they use QC for débit cardiaque?
However, this is spirometry and everything in the report is about lungs so not sure... Will continue researching with this new information :)
dwt2 Sep 22, 2023:
QC is often used to indicate "debit cardiaque" i.e. cardiac output. Hence QcG = left ventricular output, QcD right ventricular output. BUT not sure how this fits exactly with your text (could it be that left = right)
