3D Magnetic Resonance Spirometry

Scientific Reports, 2020
Spirometry is today the gold standard technique for assessing pulmonary ventilatory function in humans. From the shape of a flow-volume loop measured while the patient is performing forced respiratory cycles, the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and the ...

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.

SPIROMETRY IN A PHYSIOTHERAPY DEPARTMENT

Australian Journal of Physiotherapy, 1975
Spirometry is used to provide information which will assist in determining the amount of pulmonary impairment. Tests can be quite elaborate and sophisticated, but physiotherapy departments in hospitals without a respiratory laboratory, can provide a good deal of information by using simple spirometry.

The use of low‐dose dexmedetomidine constant rate infusion to stabilise blood glucose in a domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo) with insulinoma undergoing sevoflurane anaesthesia

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 5.5‐year‐old, male domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo) diagnosed with insulinoma was presented for a dental procedure under general anaesthesia. In insulinoma patients, it is essential to avoid hypoglycaemia. In other species, constant rate infusion of dexmedetomidine has been reported to sustain adequate blood glucose by inhibiting ...

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).

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,

Spirometry reference equations for central European populations from school age to old age. [PDF]

, 2013
Spirometry reference values are important for the interpretation of spirometry results. Reference values should be updated regularly, derived from a population as similar to the population for which they are to be used and span across all ages.

Home self-monitoring in patients with asthma using a mobile spirometry system

Journal of Asthma, 2019
Background Self-management is an appealing strategy for prevention of asthma exacerbations. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a portable spirometer for unsupervised home spirometry measurements among patients with asthma. Methods

Current Insights Into Individualized Diagnosis and Treatment of Allergic Rhinitis Based on Phenotype and Endotype

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa characterized by allergen sensitization and the involvement of multiple inflammatory mediators. Currently, the treatment of AR mainly includes symptomatic relief, anti‐inflammatory therapy, and nerve desensitization. However, these treatments have limitations in fully

Antenatal Corticosteroid Administration and Childhood Respiratory Morbidity: A Regression Discontinuity Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine if routine administration of antenatal corticosteroids affects the risk of infant lower respiratory tract infection and/or childhood asthma. Design Linked population‐based cohort analysed using a regression discontinuity design, which better controls for confounding than standard observational studies.
