detection of airway partitioning following unilateral nasal stimulations by the forced oscillation technique in rats.
nasal mucosa has an extraordinary nerve supply with unique geometry that encompasses complex physiology. among these, side-specific predilections to the respiratory and autonomic centers are the interesting issues that have been raised about the consequences of the nasal irritations. the aim of the study was an evaluation of how intranasal stimulation influences lung mechanics and determines wh...
متن کاملAssociation between respiratory impedance measured by forced oscillation technique and exacerbations in patients with COPD
Background It is well known that increased airflow limitation as measured by spirometry is associated with the risk of exacerbation in patients with COPD. The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a noninvasive method used to assess respiratory impedance (resistance and reactance) with minimal patient cooperation required. The clinical utility of the FOT in assessing the risk of exacerbations o...
متن کاملOn the Respiratory Mechanics Measured by Forced Oscillation Technique in Patients with Systemic Sclerosis
BACKGROUND Pulmonary complications are the most common cause of death and morbidity in systemic sclerosis (SSc). The forced oscillation technique (FOT) offers a simple and detailed approach to investigate the mechanical properties of the respiratory system. We hypothesized that SSc may introduce changes in the resistive and reactive properties of the respiratory system, and that FOT may help th...
متن کاملEvaluating the forced oscillation technique in the detection of early smoking-induced respiratory changes
BACKGROUND Early detection of the effects of smoking is of the utmost importance in the prevention of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is easy to perform since it requires only tidal breathing and offers a detailed approach to investigate the mechanical properties of the respiratory system. The FOT was recently suggested as an attractive alter...
متن کاملThe Relationship between the Severity of Airway Obstruction and COPD Diagnostic Questionnaire Score in COPD Patients
Background & objectives: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by irreversible airflow limitation and systemic inflammation which is also associated with pulmonary and extra-pulmonary complications. COPD Diagnostic Questionnaire (CDQ) is a valid questionnaire that is used to identify patients with COPD. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between ...
