Reference Equations for Impulse Oscillometry System Parameters in Healthy Brazilian Children and Adolescents.
BACKGROUND The impulse oscillometry system is a noninvasive method of evaluating respiratory mechanics that is being increasingly used in the pediatric population. To date, no reference equations have been developed for healthy Brazilian children and adolescents. The purpose of the study was to determine the reference equations for impulse oscillometry system parameters in healthy children and ...
متن کاملValues of impulse oscillometry in healthy mexican children and adolescents.
BACKGROUND The impulse oscillometry system (IOS) is increasingly used to evaluate lung function, but individual results must be compared with appropriate reference values. We aimed to obtain such reference values in Mexican children and adolescents. METHODS Healthy subjects were recruited from kindergartens and schools after their parents signed a consent letter. Respiratory system impedances...
متن کاملReference values for respiratory system impedance by using impulse oscillometry in children aged 2-11 years.
The forced oscillation technique makes it possible to evaluate the mechanical properties of the respiratory system with a minimum of cooperation. The method is therefore especially useful in children. Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is a commercially available version of this technique. There is, as yet, limited information on reference values for IOS in children. The aim of this study was to extend...
متن کاملAccuracy 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 کاملHead circumference reference data for Egyptian children and adolescents.
Data from a cross-sectional study of 27,826 healthy children in Cairo, Egypt, were used to construct standard growth charts of head circumference and reference values of relative head circumference to length/height for each sex. The sample was collected during the Egyptian Growth Curve Project for children and adolescents in 2002. Values were obtained for each month cohort for children aged 1-2...
