Impulse 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 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...
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 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 کاملOscillometry complements spirometry in evaluation of subjects following toxic inhalation
The World Trade Center (WTC) destruction released dust and fumes into the environment. Although many community members developed respiratory symptoms, screening spirometry was usually normal. We hypothesised that forced oscillation testing would identify functional abnormalities undetected by spirometry and that symptom severity would relate to magnitude of abnormalities measured by oscillometr...
