Static lung volume should be used to confirm restrictive lung disease
Shweta A Rasam, Nitin V Vanjare Department of Pulmonary Function Laboratory, Chest Research Foundation, Pune, Maharashtra, IndiaWe read the study by Hee Jin Park et al1 with great interest. The authors have investigated the prevalence of comorbidities in Korean chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) population.

Absolute lung size and the sex difference in breathlessness in the general population.
BackgroundBreathlessness is associated with major adverse health outcomes and is twice as common in women as men in the general population. We evaluated whether this is related to their lower absolute lung volumes.MethodsCross-sectional analysis of the ...

CT registration-derived indices provide data on regional lung functional changes in COPD. However, because unlike spirometry which involves dynamic maximal breathing maneuvers, CT-based functional parameters are assessed between two static breath-holds ...

Head-out water immersion alters respiratory compliance which underpins defining pressure at a “Lung centroid” and the breathing “Static Lung Load”. In diving medicine as in designing dive-breathing devices a single value of lung centroid pressure is ...

Faal Paru Statis [Static Lung Function]
Respiration or breathing is the body’s attempt to meet the needs of O2 in the metabolic process and emit CO2 as a result of intermediary metabolism by lung and respiratory organs together so that the resulting cardiovascular oxygen rich blood ...

Lung volumes, gas transfer and oscillometry after preterm birth: systematic review and meta-analysis
Background Small airway and lung parenchymal abnormalities frequently occur following preterm birth but are commonly missed by spirometry. Static lung volumes, diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) and oscillometry provide a more ...

Evaluation of Respiratory Dynamics in an Asymmetric Lung Compliance Model [PDF]
Background Unilateral lung hyperinflation develops in lungs with asymmetric compliance, which can lead to vital instability. The aim of this study was to investigate the respiratory dynamics and the effect of airway diameter on the distribution of tidal ...

Influence of heart failure on resting lung volumes in patients with COPD [PDF]
Objective: To evaluate the influence of chronic heart failure (CHF) on resting lung volumes in patients with COPD, i.e., inspiratory fraction-inspiratory capacity (IC)/TLC-and relative inspiratory reserve-[1 − (end-inspiratory lung volume/TLC ...

LONG-TERM RESPIRATORY OUTCOMES FOLLOWING PRETERM BIRTH
Preterm birth interrupts the normal development of the respiratory system. Taken together with the lung injury that can occur antenatally such as from chorioamnionitis or postnatally by interventions such as mechanical ventilation and oxygen therapy ...
