Peak Expiratory Flow Rates in Chronic Asthma
American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1973Because there is doubt over the usefulness of the peak expiratory flow meter in assessing the course of chronic asthma, 55 children aged 6 to 18 years were studied over a period of 12 months. All children, who were receiving cromolyn sodium prophylaxis, were tested at monthly intervals with the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) meter and at three-month ...

How to measure peak expiratory flow rate
Nursing StandardPeak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is an important test in the diagnosis and monitoring of respiratory conditions, especially asthma. PEFR measures the speed at which air is forcefully exhaled from full inspiration, expressed in litres per minute (L/min).

[Standardization of the peak expiratory flow rate].
Sozial- und Praventivmedizin, 1976Five 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 rates in the elderly.
The Journal of family practice, 1989While there has been increasing interest in using peak flow meters in medical practice, reference values for white adults aged over 65 years are not available. Peak expiratory flow rate was studied in ambulatory adults aged 65 years and above. Healthy nonsmoking subjects were selected by stringent criteria.

Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) in hairdressers.
Indian journal of physiology and pharmacology, 2000The 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
