It's not all about small airways disease: key limitations of oscillometry interpretation [PDF]

Frontiers in Allergy
An exciting aspect of oscillometry is the ability to detect small airways disease (SAD), particularly through frequency dependence of resistance, commonly measured as R5-R20. While SAD influences oscillometry measurements, it is important to realize that

Clinical significance and applications of oscillometry [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2022
Recently, “Technical standards for respiratory oscillometry” was published, which reviewed the physiological basis of oscillometric measures and detailed the technical factors related to equipment and test performance, quality assurance and reporting of ...

Respiratory oscillometry identifies disease progression in interstitial lung disease [PDF]

BMJ Open Respiratory Research
Background Respiratory oscillometry is an effort-independent method of evaluating lung function. Its role in the monitoring of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is unclear.

Oscillometry for the diagnosis of asthma in children: a systematic review [PDF]

European Respiratory Review
Background Diagnosing asthma in children and young people (CYP) remains challenging. Oscillometry is a promising tool and is feasible from 2 years of age.

Advantage of impulse oscillometry over spirometry to diagnose chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and monitor pulmonary responses to bronchodilators: An observational study

SAGE Open Medicine, 2015
Objectives: This retrospective study was a comparative analysis of sensitivity of impulse oscillometry and spirometry techniques for use in a mixed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease group for assessing disease severity and inhalation therapy. Methods:

Early detection of chronic lung allograft dysfunction with spectral and intrabreath oscillometry [PDF]

JHLT Open
Background: Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is the main obstacle to long-term survival after lung transplantation. CLAD is defined by a sustained >3-month drop in the forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1) to ≤80% of the baseline value when ...

Respiratory oscillometry in monitoring lung transplant allograft function: a systematic scoping review [PDF]

European Respiratory Review
Acute and chronic lung rejection are major barriers to the long-term survival of lung transplant recipients. Current spirometry-based monitoring of allograft function is limited by the low sensitivity in detecting distal airway abnormalities where ...

Small airway dysfunction: a shared, early, measurable, and potentially treatable trait across COPD, asthma, and fibrotic lung disease [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
Small airway dysfunction (SAD) has emerged as a key but historically under-recognized component of chronic respiratory diseases, offering a potential explanation for the frequent mismatch between symptom burden and spirometric findings.

Correlation of respiratory oscillometry with CT image analysis in a prospective cohort of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

BMJ Open Respiratory Research, 2022
Background Markers of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) severity are based on measurements of forced vital capacity (FVC), diffusing capacity (DLCO) and CT. The pulmonary vessel volume (PVV) is a novel quantitative and independent prognostic structural
