Pulmonary mechanics during exercise in subjects with chronic airflow obstruction [PDF]

, 1980
A body plethysmograph was used to measure pulmonary mechanics in six subjects with chronic airflow obstruction during steady states at rest and during exercise at 200 and 400 kpm . min-1.

Peak weight velocity in infancy is negatively associated with lung function in adolescence. [PDF]

, 2016
Rapid weight gain during infancy increases childhood asthma risk, which might be related to impaired lung function. This study investigated associations between peak weight velocity (PWV) during the first two years of life and spirometric lung function ...

Comparison of four types of portable peak flow meters (Mini-Wright, Assess, Pulmo-graph and Wright Pocket meters) [PDF]

, 1998
Ambulatory peak flow monitoring plays an important role in the diagnosis and management of patients with bronchial asthma. Today several kinds of portable peak flow meters (PFMs) are available for this purpose and sometimes comparisons between the ...

The association of tidal EFL with exercise performance, exacerbations, and death in COPD [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Tidal expiratory flow limitation (EFLT) is frequently found in patients with COPD and can be detected by forced oscillations when within-breath reactance of a single-breath is â¥0.28 kPa·s·L-1.

Forced vital capacity (FVC), peaked expiratory flow rate (PEFR), are additional parameters in the assessment of the reversibility test.

Journal of the Faculty of Medicine Baghdad, 2018
Background: Spirometry is an important test performed in patients expect to have airway obstruction, assessment of intense reaction to inhalers (the trial of reversibility of airway blockade) is a normally utilized technique in clinical and academic studies.

Persistent small-airways dysfunction after exposure to hyperoxia [PDF]

, 1995
To assess the contribution of hyperoxia to reduced pulmonary function after a deep saturation dive, a shallow saturation dive to a pressure of 0.25 MPa with the same profile of hyperoxic exposure as in a deep saturation dive to 3.7 MPa was conducted ...
