Pulmonary function testing [PDF]

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2012
To review the recent literature related to pulmonary function testing and how it relates to the preoperative evaluation.There is increased interest in the field of pulmonary arterial hypertension. It is important to determine the clinical implications of this disease and determine whether preoperative therapy is indeed effective.

Exercise Capacity, Ventilatory Response, and Gas Exchange in COPD Patients With Mild to Severe Obstruction Residing at High Altitude

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
BackgroundExercise intolerance, desaturation, and dyspnea are common features in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). At altitude, the barometric pressure (BP) decreases, and therefore the inspired oxygen pressure and the partial ...

Pulmonary function tests [PDF]

Rheumatology, 2008
Systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in SSc patients. In autopsy studies, up to 70% of the SSc patients show histological evidence of lung involvement. In surgical lung biopsies from SSc-ILD patients, a pattern of non-specific interstitial pneumonia is present in a majority ...

Ultrasound evaluation of diaphragmatic function in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a retrospective observational study

Respiratory Research, 2023
Introduction The diaphragm function assessed by ultrasound has been well-studied in COPD, asthma, and intensive care. However, there are only a few studies on diffuse interstitial lung disease, while dyspnea and quality of life are major issues in the ...

Impact of Inhaled Corticosteroids on the Modulation of Respiratory Defensive Reflexes During Artificial Limb Exercise in Ovalbumin-Sensitized Rabbits

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
IntroductionCough is a major lower airway defense mechanism that can be triggered by exercise in asthma patients. Studies on cough reflex in experimental animal models revealed a decrease of cough reflex sensitivity during exercise in healthy animals ...

Desensitization of the Cough Reflex Induced by Corticosteroids in Ovalbumin-Sensitized Rabbits During Artificial Limb Exercise

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
IntroductionCough is a major symptom frequently experienced during exercise, mainly in asthmatic patients. Inhaled glucocorticoids represent the keystone treatment in the management of asthma, but little is known about interactions between cough and ...
