Impulse 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 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 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 کاملA Comparison of Impulse Oscillometry and Spirometry Values in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
BACKGROUND The relationship between gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) and airway diseases is still a matter of debate. Oscillometry is an objective, independent tool for the evaluation of airway resistance. The main purpose of this study is to compare spirometry and oscillometry results before and after treatment by a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) in a group of GERD patients who have no respiratory ...
متن کاملImpulse oscillometry for leukotriene D4 inhalation challenge in asthma.
BACKGROUND The value of impulse oscillometry (IOS) for bronchial provocation testing is poorly defined. We investigated the positive threshold derived from the parameters and diagnostic power of IOS for asthma with the leukotriene D(4) bronchial provocation test. METHODS We enrolled 62 subjects with asthma and 21 healthy subjects. IOS was employed to perform the leukotriene D(4) bronchial pro...
