Role of the impulse oscillometry in the evaluation of tracheal stenosis

Pulmonology, 2018
Tracheal stenosis is a rare and challenging disease. Bronchoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis and assessment but brings inherent risks. Spirometry is commonly used to access obstructions but is not always feasible due to patient related factors.

Impulse Oscillometry as a Predictor of Asthma Exacerbations in Young Children [PDF]

Respiration, 2016
<b><i>Background:</i></b> In a post-hoc analysis of a pediatric asthma study, we identified the predictors of asthma exacerbations (AEs) and related them to forced expiratory volume (FEV₁), the FEV₁/FVC ratio, and bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR). <b><i>Objectives:</

IMPULSE OSCILLOMETRY FOR DIAGNOSIS OF EARLY CHANGES IN THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL STATE IN PATIENTS WITH MILD ASTHMA

Архивъ внутренней медицины, 2019
Currently, the analysis of respiratory function of lungs at suspicion of obstructive pulmonary diseases is recommended to start with spirometry as the most sensitive method of obstruction detection. However, data on informative value and specificity of a

The role of impulse oscillometry in detecting airway dysfunction in athletes [PDF]

Journal of Asthma, 2015
Impulse oscillometry (IOS) has previously been proposed to provide greater sensitivity than spirometry when employed with indirect bronchoprovocation testing for the diagnosis of airway dysfunction in athletes. However, this recommendation is based on a highly selected population of symptomatic patients.To compare IOS, spirometry and respiratory ...

Impulse Oscillometry Detected Physiological Abnormalities More Frequently Than Spirometry in Children With Largely Preserved Lung Function

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We compared how well impulse oscillometry (IOS) and spirometry detected small airway dysfunction (SAD) in children with asthma and evaluated associations between IOS abnormalities, asthma control, and asthma severity. Methods This observational study comprised 106 children aged 6–18 years with asthma who underwent IOS and spirometry before

The role of impulse oscillometry in assessment of airway obstruction in smokers and ex-smokers

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2012
Background: Impulse oscillometry provides useful clinical information that prominently includes functional assessment of small, peripheral airway behavior beyond that available from commonly used pulmonary function tests (PFT).
