A spirometry-based algorithm to direct lung function testing in the pulmonary function laboratory.
OBJECTIVE To design a spirometry-based algorithm to predict pulmonary restrictive impairment and reduce the number of patients undergoing unnecessary lung volume testing. DESIGN Two prospective studies of 259 consecutive patients and 265 consecutive patients used to derive and validate the algorithm, respectively. SETTING A pulmonary function laboratory of a tertiary care hospital. PATIEN...
متن کاملSpirometry pattern and respiratory symptoms in sweepers
Introduction: Multiple and sometimes contradictory evidence exists on the relationship between dust exposure and respiratory symptoms with pulmonary disorders. The study was conducted to examine the effects of chronic exposure to street dust on the pulmonary parameters and respiratory complaints in sweepers. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 sweepers working in district ...
متن کاملBronchial Responsiveness in Patients with Restrictive Spirometry
BACKGROUND Improvement in PFT after bronchodilators is characteristic of obstructive airway diseases such as COPD. However, improvement in patients with restrictive pattern is occasionally seen. We aim to determine the clinical significance of a bronchodilator responsive restrictive defect. METHODS Patients with restrictive spirometry and a bronchodilator study were identified at the Universi...

متن کاملa new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot
abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...
