Predictive Regression Equations of Flowmetric and Spirometric Peak Expiratory Flow in Healthy Moroccan Adults
Introduction. PEF has never been characterized among healthy Moroccan adults. The objective of this study is to describe the values of PEF among healthy Moroccan adults, to study its relationship with anthropometric parameters (gender, age, height, and weight), to compare spirometric and flowmetric PEF, to establish the prediction equations for PEF, and to study the correlation between PEF and ...
متن کاملNew regression equations for predicting peak expiratory flow in adults.
An earlier study of peak expiratory flow (PEF) in normal adults contained too few men aged over 55 and women aged over 65 for the regression equations to be used for prediction in older people. A subsequent study was therefore carried out on an additional 23 men and 29 women aged 55 or over who were lifelong non-smokers and satisfied the same strict criteria of normality that had been used in t...
متن کاملPeak 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 کاملPeak expiratory flow rate in healthy Pakistani adults.
Peak expiratory flow rates (PEFRs) were measured in 424 healthy subjects (213 males and 211 females) from Karachi and Rawalpindi regions of Pakistan. The mean age, height and peak expiratory flow rate for males were 32.82 ± 10.52 yr, 163.5 ± 5.4 cm and 478.6 ± 63.2l/min respectively. The corresponding values for females were 35.54 ± 6.98 yr, 157.34 ± 8.2cm and 422.5 ± 42.6 l/min respectively. B...
