Accuracy of Impulse Oscillometry in Airway Dysfunction
Background: The purpose of this study was to calculate and compare the specificity and sensitivity of impulse oscillometry (IOS) as a new technique in the detection of airways dysfunction by means of a simple pulmonary function test in chemical warfare injured cases suffering from respiratory diseases. Methods: The study was performed prospectively in 100 patients, who complained of dyspnea as ...
متن کاملClinical application value of impulse oscillometry in geriatric patients with COPD
BACKGROUND The diagnosis and assessment of COPD rely mainly on the use of spirometry, which is an effort-dependent test and requires good patient cooperation. Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is a non-volitional method that requires less effort and cooperation and presents advantages for geriatric patients. However, the clinical application value of IOS in geriatric patients with COPD remains unclear...
متن کاملRelationships between impulse oscillometry, spirometry and dyspnoea in COPD.
BACKGROUND Severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is based either on symptoms/disability or lung function, which have no discernible correlation. We hypothesised that impulse oscillometry (IOS), a non-effort-dependent measure of central and peripheral airway mechanics, could correlate to dyspnoea in COPD. METHODS We analysed screening data from 57 COPD patients who had spiro...
