Peak Expiratory Flow Rate in Healthy Children from Tehran
Background: Measuring peak expiratory flow rate has been suggested as an important tool in asthma management by all international guidelines. Objective: Studies on various populations have shown considerable variations in normal values of peak expiratory flow rate. Since reference standards for Iranian children are not available, the present study was performed to establish these standards. Me...
متن کاملNasal peak inspiratory flow at altitudeFor
Nasal peak inspiratory flow at altitude. P.W. Barry, N.P. Mason, J-P. Richalet. #ERS Journals Ltd 2002. ABSTRACT: The present study investigated whether there are changes in nasal peak inspiratory flow (NPIF) during hypobaric hypoxia under controlled environmental conditions. During operation Everest III (COMEX 997), eight subjects ascended to a simulated altitude of 8,848 m in a hypobaric cham...
متن کاملPeak expiratory flow rates in Libyan adolescents.
Peak expiratory flow rates of 578 Libyan boys and 527 Libyan girls aged 12 to 21 years were determined. The prediction formulae that best describe the data are as follows: Boys: PEFR = 160 X Stature 1.87 Girls: PEFR = 130 X Stature2.44 Statistically significant correlations were found between peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) and standing height, sitting height, body mass index, body surface are...
متن کاملCorrelation between Peak Expiratory Flow and Abdominal Muscle Thickness
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine whether forced expiration is correlated with abdominal muscle thickness. [Subjects] Twenty-three healthy male volunteers participated in this study. [Methods] The peak expiratory flow (PEF) was obtained using a peak flow meter with subjects in the sitting position. The thicknesses of the right rectus abdominis, external oblique, internal obli...
متن کاملThe clinical value of peak nasal inspiratory flow, peak oral inspiratory flow, and the nasal patency index.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to ascertain the most reliable objective measurement for the assessment of nasal patency by investigating the relationship between peak nasal inspiratory flow, peak oral inspiratory flow, and the nasal patency index in relation to the patient's subjective perception regarding nasal obstruction. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS Th...
