Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) in hairdressers.

Indian journal of physiology and pharmacology, 2000
The present cross sectional study with comparison group was undertaken to assess the lung function of hairdressers by Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) using Wright peak flow meter. Total 385 hairdressers and 770 controls were included in the study. PEFR was observed to be reduced in hairdressers compared with controls. The difference was significant (P

Peak expiratory flow rate in elderly Malaysians.

The Medical journal of Malaysia, 2000
An epidemiological survey was conducted among 1,414 healthy ambulatory elderly persons aged 55 years and above in the Kuala Langat district, Selangor. The relationship between peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), demographic variables, socioeconomic status, smoking, alcohol use and respiratory symptoms were examined. The peak expiratory flow declined with

[Standardization of the peak expiratory flow rate].

Sozial- und Praventivmedizin, 1976
Five successive measurements of the peak expiratory flow rate have been made on a large number of children and adolescents in various age groups and both sexes. The predominant part of the increase in individual performance is already achieved during the first three trials.

Peak expiratory flow rate in handloom weavers.

Indian journal of physiology and pharmacology, 1999
The present cross-sectional study with a comparison group was carried out to investigate peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) in handloom weavers and to study relationship between reduction in PEFR with age, smoking, duration of cotton dust exposure and respiratory morbidity.

The forced expiratory volume and the peak expiratory flow rate in pneumoconiosis

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1966
Summary One hundred and sixty men with coal-miner's pneumoconiosis were studied in two groups to ascertain whether a good correlation existed between the F.E.V. 1 and the P.E.F.R. The first group consisted of 100 miners without chronic bronchitis and the second of 60 miners with chronic bronchitis. Correlation was good in both groups.

Peak expiratory flow rates in Libyan adolescents.

Indian journal of physiology and pharmacology, 1990
Peak expiratory flow rates of 578 Libyan boys and 527 Libyan girls aged 12 to 21 years were determined. The prediction formulae that best describe the data are as follows: Boys: PEFR = 160 X Stature 1.87 Girls: PEFR = 130 X Stature2.44 Statistically significant correlations were found between peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) and standing height ...

Peak expiratory flow rates in elderly Indians.

Indian journal of physiology and pharmacology, 1991
Peak expiratory flow rates were measured in 124 normal elderly men (55-85 yr) using the Wright's peak flow meter. In the less than 60 yrs age group (n = 32; mean age 57.7 yr) the PEFR was 431 +/- 13 lpm, while for the group greater than 60 yr (mean age 69.0 +/- 6.0; n = 92), the PEFR value was 373 +/- 11 1pm.
