Abstract
An apparatus and method for assessing vascular compliance in subjects with multiple sclerosis using sequential gas delivery is provided. The apparatus includes a gas delivery device and a processor. The processor controls the gas delivery device to deliver a first and second gas during a single inspiration. The first gas contains a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide necessary to target an end-tidal concentration of the two gases. The second gas includes a concentration of carbon dioxide equal to the target end-tidal concentration of carbon dioxide.
