Impulse oscillometry and obesity in children

open access: yesJornal De Pediatria, 2018
To compare impulse oscillometry system parameters of normal-weight children with overweight and obese children.All participants were submitted to the evaluation of lung function (spirometry and impulse oscillometry) following the American Thoracic Society standards.

Impulse Oscillometry in Adults with Bronchiectasis

Annals of the American Thoracic Society, 2015
Abstract Rationale The usefulness of impulse oscillometry (IOS) in bronchiectasis has not been systematically investigated. Objectives To determine the usefulness of IOS parameters and their correlation with radiology,

Oscillometry

Clinics in Chest Medicine
Respiratory oscillometry measures impedance during tidal breathing and is a sensitive marker of smaller airway function. Recent consensus documents provide a framework for the clinician to incorporate this lung function test into routine clinical practice. Oscillometry has an established role in pediatric respiratory medicine.

An update on oscillometry in asthma

Expert Review of Respiratory Medicine
Notwithstanding considerable progress in asthma management, a significant proportion of patients continue to demonstrate suboptimal control. Research has identified small airways dysfunction (SAD) as a critical site for airflow limitation and an independent risk factor of exacerbations, with airway oscillometry (AO) playing a pivotal role in this field.

The role of oscillometry in asthma

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine
Purpose of review Oscillometry is a noninvasive pulmonary function test that has gained significant interest in the evaluation of lung disease. Currently, oscillometry is primarily a research tool, but there is a growing body of evidence supporting its clinical use.

Skin avulsion during oscillometry

Journal of Clinical Monitoring, 1986
We observed a case of skin avulsion associated with measurement of blood pressure by oscillometry on an anesthetized patient in the prone position. Epidermal shearing may be avoided in the prone patient by either wrapping the antecubital skin underlying the blood pressure cuff with gauze or preventing weight-bearing by the cuffed portion of the arm.

Conducting Respiratory Oscillometry in an Outpatient Setting

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2022
Respiratory oscillometry is a different modality of pulmonary function testing that is increasingly used in a clinical and research setting to provide information regarding lung mechanics. Respiratory oscillometry is conducted through three acceptable measurements of tidal breathing and can be performed with minimal contraindications.
