Spirometry is indicated in all the children with clinical diagnosis of asthma, chronic/recurrent cough or wheeze, exercise induced cough or breathlessness and with recurrent respiratory manifestations. Mid expiratory How 25-75% (MEF 25-75) is an important diagnostic parameters in children due to its effort independence, high sensitivity in ...

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.

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 ...

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1961
The advantages and limitations of pulmonary function tests are described. A short description of the methods of investigation of the processes involved in respiration is given, viz., the investigation of ventilation, diffusion, pulmonary capillary perfusion and the mechanics of breathing.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1994
Pulmonary-function tests provide objective, quantifiable measures of lung function. They are used to evaluate and monitor diseases that affect heart and lung function, to monitor the effects of environmental, occupational, and drug exposures, to assess risks of surgery, and to assist in evaluations performed before employment or for insurance purposes.

Pediatric Pulmonary Function Testing
Respiratory Care Clinics of North America, 2000Pulmonary function testing is an essential component in the diagnosis and monitoring of the pediatric asthmatic. Very young children are capable of performing spirometry, lung Volumes, airway mechanics, and other testing. Obtaining valid test results in children is dependent on multiple factors including equipment selection, environment, technologist ...

Office Pulmonary Function Testing
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1984The underutilization of pulmonary function tests is due to many factors, including a general misunderstanding of the physiology involved and confusion over who to test, when and how to test them, and what equipment to use. This article attempts to demystify pulmonary function tests and makes practical suggestions concerning equipment and techniques to ...
