Impact of obesity on pulmonary function of preschool children: an impulse oscillometry study. [PDF]

Clin Exp Pediatr
Background The increasing global prevalence of obesity poses significant public health problems, as obesity exerts adverse effects on many systems and lung function. However, research on the lung function of preschool children with obesity is limited and

Impulse Oscillometry Combined to FeNO in Relation to Asthma Control Among Preschool Children. [PDF]

J Asthma Allergy
Objective We aimed to observe and analyze the differences in impulse oscillometry (IOS) and fractional expiratory nitric oxide (FeNO) in relation to asthma control among preschool children, and to explore the predictive value of IOS combined with FeNO ...

Clinical characterization and outcomes of impulse oscillometry-defined bronchodilator response: an ECOPD cohort-based study. [PDF]

Respir Res
Background The clinical significance of the impulse oscillometry-defined small airway bronchodilator response (IOS-BDR) is not well-known. Accordingly, this study investigated the clinical characteristics of IOS-BDR and explored the association between ...

Predictive Value of Impulse Oscillometry Combined with Fractional Expiratory Nitric Oxide Test for Asthma in Preschool Children. [PDF]

J Asthma Allergy
Objective Prediction of asthma in preschool children is challenging and lacks objective indicators. The aim is to observe and analyze the variances between impulse oscillometry (IOS) and fractional expiratory nitric oxide (FeNO) in preschool children ...

The Influence of Different Mouthpieces on Impulse Oscillometry Results [PDF]

Respiratory Care, 2018
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. We sought to compare the 3 most commonly described mouthpieces in terms of test results, comfort, and subject preference.Thirty ...

Performance of Impulse Oscillometry in Identifying Restrictive Lung Defects in a Veteran Cohort. [PDF]

Open Respir Med J
Background Impulse oscillometry (IOs) is a technique used to evaluate lung function that uses sound waves imposed over tidal breathing to characterize the airways and lung parenchyma.

Steamed hay for the prevention of severe equine asthma exacerbations

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Steaming hay reduces respirable particles and is commonly used to feed horses with asthma. However, it showed inconsistent benefits in clinical studies. Objectives (1) To assess the effects of steamed hay on lung function and airway inflammation in horses with severe equine asthma (SEA) in remission; (2) To compare these effects ...

Impulse оscillometry in the diagnosis of moderate airway obstruction

Клиническая практика, 2018
Background: Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is a non-invasive method for determining respiratory impedance and its parameters. IOS has certain advantages over traditional spirometry. Aim: To assess the potential of IOS in the diagnosis of moderately severe

Relationships between impulse oscillometry, spirometry and dyspnoea in COPD [PDF]

Journal of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, 2012
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-effortdependent measure of central and peripheral airway mechanics, could correlate to dyspnoea in COPD.

Effects of long term exposure to occupational noise on textile industry workers' lung function [PDF]

, 2006
Vibroacoustic disease is a pathology caused by long occupational exposure to large pressure amplitude and low frequency noise. It is a systemic disease, with evolvement of respiratory structures. The exposure workers to this noise of textile industry may
