Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) was associated with the development of airway obstruction over 10 years of follow-up, independent of smoking habits, with comparable odds for disease ...
Among patients with asthma-like symptoms in primary care, testing using home spirometry may be useful for the diagnosis of ...
Research published in Thorax indicates that use of a lower limit of normal (LLN) spirometric threshold fails to identify a number of patients with airflow obstruction and chronic obstructive pulmonary ...
Compared with spirometry, forced oscillometry better detected normal airway function in patients with asthma and better detected isolated small airway obstruction in patients with bronchial asthma, ...
(NORTHBROOK, IL, April 12, 2004) - Spirometry testing in a primary care setting significantly improves early identification of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), says a study published in ...
To investigate whether a self-reported diagnosis of COPD is associated with prior spirometry and whether a correct diagnosis of COPD is more likely when spirometry was performed. 68 (5.4%) of 1,258 ...
Recent studies show that many patients are being treated for COPD without confirmatory spirometry. In-office testing is easy and available. A recent study showed that only 32% of patients admitted to ...
Under and over-diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in primary care highlights the need for adequate access to quality assured spirometry, a study has concluded. The new research, ...
New study findings call into question the necessity of spirometry as a criterion for participation in palliative care research among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Quality ...
We thank Anthony D'Urzo for his thoughtful comments. Our editorial stated that “asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are routinely confused clinically in adults and can only be reliably ...
