Vocal Cord Dysfunction as Demonstrated by Impulse Oscillometry [PDF]
The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice, 2013 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 ...

Impulse Oscillometry as a measure of airway dysfunction in Sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis, vasculitis, and diffuse lung diseases : official journal of WASOG, 2021 Sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory granulomatous disease which commonly affects intrathoracic lymph nodes, lung parenchyma and airways.To measure respiratory impedance using Impulse Oscillometry (IOS) in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis and compare the parameters with healthy controls.Patients diagnosed with sarcoidosis (n=28); and age and ...

The Influence of Different Mouthpieces on Impulse Oscillometry Results [PDF]
Respiratory Care, 2018 BACKGROUND: Impulse oscillometry is a method of airway assessment and diagnosis that provides data on lung mechanics. In the literature, studies have used different types of mouthpieces or did not describe the model used for the tests.

Impulse oscillometry bronchodilator response in preschool children
Pediatric Pulmonology, 2023 AbstractBackgroundIn preschoolers, performing an acceptable spirometry and measuring bronchodilator response (BDR) is challenging; in this context, impulse oscillometry (IOS) represents a valid alternative. However, more studies on the standardization of BDR for IOS in young children are required.ObjectiveThe objective of the study was to identify ...
