OBJECTIVE: Efficient gas exchange across the alveolar membrane requires a dry air space. At birth, active Na+ transport provides the major driving force for absorption of fetal lung liquid, and during adult life, similar transport mechanisms balance fluid exchange across the alveolarcapillary membra...
