Impulse oscillometry identifies peripheral airway dysfunction in children with adenosine deaminase deficiency. [PDF]
Adenosine deaminase-deficient severe combined immunodeficiency (ADA-SCID) is characterized by impaired T-, B- and NK-cell function. Affected children, in addition to early onset of infections, manifest non-immunologic symptoms including pulmonary ...

What can we learn about COPD from impulse oscillometry? [PDF]
Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is the most commonly used type of forced oscillation technique in clinical practice, although relatively little is known about its application in COPD.

Comparing spirometry, impulse oscillometry with computed tomography for assessing small airway dysfunction in subjects with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. [PDF]
Studies on consistency among spirometry, impulse oscillometry (IOS), and histology for detecting small airway dysfunction (SAD) remain scarce. Considering invasiveness of lung histopathology, we aimed to compare spirometry and IOS with chest computed ...

Vocal Cord Dysfunction as Demonstrated by Impulse Oscillometry [PDF]
Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD) is a respiratory disorder characterized by inappropriate vocal cord adduction during inspiration. The diagnosis of VCD is challenging, because expected flow volume loop abnormalities are uncommonly noted, and laryngoscopy must be timed to coincide with symptoms.We wanted to determine the potential role of impulse ...

I say IOS you say AOS:comparative bias in respiratory impedance measurements [PDF]
Background: The forced oscillation technique (FOT) measures respiratory impedance during normal tidal breathing and requires minimal patient cooperation.Objective: To compare IOS and AOS devices in patients with asthma and COPD.Methods: We compared two ...

The bronchodilator response in preschool children: A systematic review [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The bronchodilator response (BDR) is frequently used to support diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making for children who wheeze. However, there is little evidence-based guidance describing the role of BDR testing in preschool children and ...

Sensitivity of lung resistance and compliance to beta-blocker induced bronchoconstriction and long acting beta-agonist withdrawal in COPD [PDF]
Little is known about impulse oscillometry (IOS) in COPD. IOS is an effort independent measure of lung resistance and reactance (compliance).
