Pulmonary Function Testing in Children
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1987This article concentrates on those factors that are particularly important for performing and interpreting lung function tests in children. Specifically, technical considerations such as equipment, personnel, test performance, and bronchoprovocation procedures are discussed.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968
All physicians, regardless of their types of practice, are seeing more patients with various forms of chronic lung disease. Pulmonary symptoms may be the primary complaint, or they may become apparent during another illness or after an operation. Pulmonary-function tests offer the means of elucidating the type of physiological impairment present ...

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1969
To the Editor:— The article "Pulmonary-Function Tests" which appeared inThe Journal( 206 :2302, 1968) contains the following statement: "The level of arterial Pco 2 is governed solely by the alveolar ventilation. Elevated Pco 2 means alveolar hypoventilation, and reduced Pco 2 , alveolar hyperventilation." Such a statement ignores the ventilation to ...

Function tests in pulmonary surgery
The American Journal of Surgery, 1955Abstract In the preoperative evaluation of pulmonary function the results of clinical investigations are decisive for the question of operability and for the choice of intervention. Great importance is attached to the anamnesis. All available roentgenograms must be carefully studied, the anatomic extent of the disease noted and diaphragmatic and ...

Infant pulmonary function testing
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2003Pulmonary function tests in infants have been used for many years, but they have been largely relegated to specialized centers and research purposes. More recently, development of commercial equipment and newer techniques has allowed for more broad use and application of these tests.

Pulmonary Function Testing in Animals
2018Nanoparticles possess a number of useful properties that make them useful for a variety of industrial and commercial applications. The small size of nanoparticles means that they are respirable and can penetrate deep into the lung when inhaled. Because of this, there is interest in assessing possible toxic effects of nanoparticles on the respiratory ...

Pulmonary Function Testing in Horses
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Large Animal Practice, 1979Pulmonary function tests in horses are in the early stages of development and there will be a limit in the range of tests available since those requiring patient cooperation cannot be conducted in animals. Some tests such as blood gas analysis, A-aDo2 and delta Ppl measurements could presently be used to a greater extent under field conditions.

Obesity and Pulmonary Function Tests
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2015Obesity in children and adolescents is rapidly increasing all over the world. Approximately one-fourth of children and adolescents are overweight or obese in the United States [1]. Though the studies from India are limited, the prevalence of overweight and obesity in children is reported to be between 5.6 and 24 % [2]. Obesity may adversely affect many
