Relationships 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...
متن کاملImpulse oscillometry in comparison to spirometry in pregnant asthmatic females.
mean age of 50.7 yrs [7]. The most common histological subtypes are hybrid oncocytic (50%) and chromophobe (34%) renal cell carcinoma, while clear cell, oncocytoma and papillary renal cell cancer are less frequently found [7]. Radiographic screening is recommended, with a typical strategy involving abdominal computed tomography and/or renal ultrasound at the time of diagnosis, followed by inter...
متن کاملImpulse oscillometry, spirometry, and passive smoking in healthy children and adolescents.
OBJECTIVE To identify changes in the forced and quiet breathing parameters of lung function in healthy children and adolescents exposed to passive smoking (PS). METHOD Comparative cross-sectional study. Healthy schoolchildren aged 6 to 14 years. We collected anthropometric data, lung function parameters using spirometry (forced breathing), and quiet breathing parameters using impulse oscillom...
متن کاملExercise induced changes in spirometry and impulse oscillometry measurements in persistent allergic rhinitis.
The link between allergic rhinitis and asthma is well known. Bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) may be present in rhinitis. The present study was aimed to compare airway responses in patients with rhinitis symptoms alone following exercise challenge, and to determine relationship of two different respiratory function tests.98 subjects with rhinitis were investigated by spirometry and impulse oscil...
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 ...
