Spirometry and Bronchodilator Test

Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases, 2017
Spirometry is a physiological test for assessing the functional aspect of the lungs using an objective indicator to measure the maximum amount of air that a patient can inhale and exhale. Acceptable spirometry testing needs to be conducted three times by an acceptable and reproducible method for determining forced vital capacity (FVC).

Lung ultrasonography as a tool to detect interstitial lung disease in rheumatoid arthritis: A meta‐analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
A systematic review and meta‐analysis were conducted to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of lung ultrasonography (LUS) to high‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in detecting rheumatoid arthritis (RA)‐interstitial lung disease (ILD). Nine studies with a total of 845 participants were included.

Utilisation of the non‐invasive SpO2/FiO2 index for weaning from the ventilator in a dachhundog with signs of acute respiratory distress syndrome after bronchoalveolar lavage (dog)

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 2‐year‐old, male, neutered dachshund was presented for further investigation of a progressive chronic cough. For endoscopy, general anaesthesia was induced with butorphanol, propofol and ketamine and maintained with sevoflurane in O2 and air, while the dog was breathing spontaneously.

Using a customizable L stent for laryngotracheal stenosis: Patterns of success and failure

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A recent innovation in the management of tracheostomy‐dependent patients with laryngotracheal stenosis (LTS) has been the customizable laryngotracheal stent, made by dividing a T‐tube in half (“L stent”). These L stents can be placed into the subglottis as well as the posterior glottis to prevent rapid re‐stenosis following surgery,

Clinical Significance of Bronchodilator Responsiveness Evaluated by Forced Vital Capacity in COPD: SPIROMICS Cohort Analysis. [PDF]

, 2019
ObjectiveBronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) is prevalent in COPD, but its clinical implications remain unclear. We explored the significance of BDR, defined by post-bronchodilator change in FEV1 (BDRFEV1) as a measure reflecting the change in flow and ...
