Trajectory of Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry: Natural History and Long-Term Prognosis.
RATIONALE Natural history of Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm), often defined as FEV1/FVC≥lower limit of normal and ...

Chronic respiratory diseases, especially chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), have high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Spirometry is regarded as the gold standard for the diagnosis of COPD. However, conventional spirometry requires expensive

Exercise intolerance is a common complication in long‐term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation. In this study, we found reduced oxygen uptake (VO2peak) by cardio‐pulmonary exercise tests to be associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction by echocardiography.

Spirometry is necessary to diagnose chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), yet a large proportion of patients are diagnosed and treated without having received testing.

Home spirometry in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: data from the INMARK trial
Background Data from the INMARK trial were used to investigate the feasibility and validity of home spirometry as a measure of lung function decline in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Variability during spirometry can persist despite control of technical and personal factors. We postulate spirometry induces gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR), which may cause variability and affect results of spirometry.

Rationale Spirometry and plethysmography are the gold standard pulmonary function tests (PFT) for diagnosis and management of lung disease. Due to the inaccessibility of plethysmography, spirometry is often used alone but this leads to missed or ...

Exploring the 175-year history of spirometry and the vital lessons it can teach us today
175 years have elapsed since John Hutchinson introduced the world to his version of an apparatus that had been in development for nearly two centuries, the spirometer.

Background: Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm), characterized by the decreased forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) with a preserved FEV1/FVC ratio, is highly prevalent and heterogeneous.

Rationale: COPD diagnosis requires relevant symptoms and an FEV1/FVC ratio of 0.7), and those who have never performed spirometry. Results: A total of 1138 patients with a recorded diagnosis of COPD were identified of which 233 patients were included in
