Structural changes in the lungs elicit changes in pulmonary function. In most diffuse lung diseases, respiratory symptoms generally develop insidiously because of alterations of the elastic and/or the flow-resistive properties of the lungs. These symptoms occur concurrently with disturbances of gas exchange.

Spirometry is a fundamental test in the diagnosis of lung disease in children, including preschool children. It measures the amount (volume) and speed (flow) of air that can be inhaled and exhaled by the patient. The FVC (forced vital capacity) maneuver is the total amount of air exhaled forcefully following a maximal inhalation, and it is usually the ...

Pulmonary function test is an important method to check the respiratory diseases. The aims of pulmonary function test include: (a) judgment whether the respiratory symptoms such as dyspnea, cough and cyanosis are caused by respiratory diseases; (b) management and monitoring of severity, progression and therapeutic reaction of the established ...

The lung has two basic simultaneous respiratory functions: the oxygenation of the incoming desaturated venous blood, and the removal of carbon dioxide and consequently of protons (H+) from this incoming blood. To perform this task adequately, both the ventilatory and the circulatory lung systems must be adapted one to another so that the ratio of the ...

Preoperative Pulmonary Function Testing
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1976PREOPERATIVE pulmonary function testing is easy to perform. Setups for spirometry are cheap and simple, and automated systems are available to compute all varieties of measurement. Today's problems for the clinician are "What does preoperative pulmonary function testing mean?" and "Who needs these studies?" The patient with bronchogenic carcinoma often

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 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.

Pulmonary function tests provide quantitative assessment of physiological properties in respiratory system including the lungs and chest wall. Spirometry is the first step as a screening and diagnostic test to investigate the existence and severity of obstructive or restrictive ventilatory disorders. Second is the measurement of lung volumes.

Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) refer to a panel of tests including spirometry, measurement of lung volumes, and diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO). We first review the basic types of pulmonary disorders (obstructive versus restrictive), and then discuss the main types of PFTs.

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 ...
