The bronchodilator response in preschool children: A systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: The bronchodilator response (BDR) is frequently used to support diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making for children who wheeze. However, there is little evidence-based guidance describing the role of BDR testing in preschool children and ...

I say IOS you say AOS:comparative bias in respiratory impedance measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: The forced oscillation technique (FOT) measures respiratory impedance during normal tidal breathing and requires minimal patient cooperation.Objective: To compare IOS and AOS devices in patients with asthma and COPD.Methods: We compared two ...

Novel Device for Measuring Lung Function using Oscillometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a non-invasive means of measuring lung mechanics. Broad-band oscillations in flow are delivered to the lungs while the resultant pressure oscillations are recorded.

Is Gly16Arg β2 Receptor Polymorphism Related to Impulse Oscillometry in a Real-Life Asthma Clinic Setting? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: We evaluated whether Gly16Arg beta2-receptor genotype relates to impulse oscillometry (IOS) in a real-life clinic setting. METHODS: Patients with persistent asthma taking inhaled corticosteroid ± long-acting beta-agonist (ICS ± LABA) were ...

Randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial of a new chewable formulation of amlodipine for the treatment of hypertension in client-owned cats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: There is an unmet clinical need for a cat‐specific formulation of amlodipine to treat hypertensive cats. OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy of chewable amlodipine tablets in reducing systolic blood pressure (SBP) in cats diagnosed with ...

The case for impulse oscillometry in the management of asthma in children and adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: To provide a clinical rationale for including impulse oscillometry (IOS) as a part of standard office-based asthma assessment.Data Sources: PubMed and Google search, limited to English language and human disease, with the keywords IOS and ...

Techniques for Non-Invasive Monitoring of Arterial Blood Pressure

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2018
Since both, hypotension and hypertension, can potentially impair the function of vital organs such as heart, brain, or kidneys, monitoring of arterial blood pressure (BP) is a mainstay of hemodynamic monitoring in acutely or critically ill patients ...

Effect of menopause on arterial stiffness and central hemodynamics: A pulse wave analysis-based cross-sectional study from Gujarat, India

open access: yesJournal of Mid-Life Health, 2021
Background: Menopause, a cardiovascular risk in mid-life women, is studied in terms of blood pressure mostly. Arterial stiffness (AS) and central hemodynamics (CH) are direct surrogates measured by pulse wave analysis (PWA) with no study from our region.

Minimal clinically important difference for impulse oscillometry in adults with asthma

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2023
Background Impulse oscillometry (IOS) allows an effort-independent evaluation of small airway function in asthma. Unfortunately, well-determined minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) for IOS measures are lacking.
