Determinants of tidal flow volume loop indices in neonates and children with and without asthma.

abstract：:Impulse oscillometry (IOS) evaluates non-effort-dependent respiratory mechanics, and thus it may be useful to evaluate patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). OBJECTIVES:We aimed (1) to describe the behavior of IOS parameters in patients with DMD, and compare it to those from a control group; (2) to determin...

abstract：:Asynchronous or paradoxic motion between the rib cage and abdomen may be seen in infants with lung disease. We have recently shown that after bronchodilator administration, the degree of asynchrony decreases proportionately to the improvement in lung mechanics. However, whether such thoraco-abdominal asynchrony (TAA) ...
