The prediction of postoperative functional status in non-small cell lung cancer patients based on preoperative assessment of physical and respiratory capacity is inadequate based on recent RCTs....
Prospectively collected spirometry data and the six-minute walk test results of 57 patients treated with lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer were analyzed. The tests were performed before surgery...
All 57 patients underwent lobectomy. Before surgery, mean FEV1 was 2.4 ± 0.7 L, corresponding to %FEV1 of 88.3 ± 17.3%. The mean absolute and expected 6MWT distance was 548 ± 74.6 m and 108.9 ± 14.5%,...
After lobectomy, FEV1 decreased slightly and less than expected, while 6MWT increased proportionally compared to the preoperative evaluation....
Recently, the development of advanced, noninvasive methods has allowed the study of respiratory function even in uncooperative infants. To date, there is still little data on the application of this t...
- To evaluate the role of respiratory function testing (PFR) in the diagnosis and follow-up of infants with stridor - To evaluate the differences between patients with inspiratory stridor and expirato...
We enrolled infants aged < 1 year with a diagnosis of inspiratory and/or expiratory chronic stridor and a group of healthy controls. For each patient we performed PFR at diagnosis (T0) and for cases a...
We enrolled 48 cases (42 diagnosed with inspiratory stridor and 6 expiratory stridor) and 26 healthy controls. At T0, patients with stridor had increased inspiratory time (p < 0.0001) and expiratory t...
PFR could help improve the management of these patients through rapid and noninvasive diagnosis, careful monitoring, and early detection of those most at risk....
Respiratory insufficiency and its complications are the main cause of death in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Respiratory symptoms are scored in questions Q10 (dyspnoea) and Q11 (orthopnoea) of ...
Patients with ALS and progressive muscular atrophy were included. We retrospectively recorded demographic data, ALSFRS-R, forced vital capacity (FVC), maximal inspiratory (MIP) and expiratory (MEP) pr...
We included 276 patients (153 men, onset age = 62.6 ± 11.0 years, disease duration = 13.0 ± 9.6 months, spinal onset in 182) with mean survival of 40.1 ± 26.0 months. Gender, onset region, and disease...
These three distinct ALS phenotypic respiratory categories represent progressive stages of ventilatory dysfunction, supporting ALSFRS-R clinical relevance. Orthopnoea is a severe symptom that should p...
Airway stenting is a useful form of palliation for patients with airway stenosis/fistulas; the stent can be removed after addressing the cause of the airway disorder. Patients with airway stents often...
The aim of this study was to compare pulmonary function and respiratory symptoms before and after stent removal....
Patients who would later undergo simple airway stent removal were prospectively recruited in two institutions. All stents were removed using both rigid and flexible bronchoscopes with patients under g...
Of the 31 patients enrolled, 28 (23 with malignant stenoses, 3 with benign stenoses, and 2 with fistulas [21 silicone and 7 metallic stents]) were included in analyses. Pulmonary function measurements...
Removal of unnecessary airway stents improves pulmonary function and respiratory symptoms. Any stent that is no longer functioning should be removed....
Pneumothorax is defined as the presence of air between the parietal and visceral leaves of the pleura, resulting in lung collapse. The aim of this study was to evaluate the respiratory functions of th...
The files of 229 patients who were hospitalised in a neonatal intensive care clinic had received a diagnosis of pneumothorax and had undergone tube thoracostomy were included in a retrospective cohort...
The study found the rates of pneumothorax to be higher in males, term infants and after caesarean delivery, mortality was 31%. Among patients who underwent spirometry, those with a history of pneumoth...
Patients treated for pneumothorax in the neonatal period should be evaluated for obstructive pulmonary diseases during childhood using respiratory function tests....
This study aims to analyze the contribution and application of forced oscillation technique (FOT) devices in lung cancer assessment. Two devices and corresponding methods can be feasible to distinguis...
The outcome respiratory impedance Z...
We validated our hypotheses and methods in 17 lung cancer patients where we showed that FOT is suitable for non-invasively measuring their respiratory impedance. FOIM models are efficient in capturing...
The proposed methods and assessment of the respiratory impedance with FOT have been demonstrated useful for characterizing mechanical properties in lung cancer patients....
This correlation analysis between the measured clinical data motivates the use of the FOT devices in lung cancer patients for diagnosis of lung properties and follow-up of the respiratory function mod...
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) may impair respiratory dynamics and affect the performance of inspiratory and expiratory muscles. The benefit of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) is not well inv...
Thirty-six adolescents were randomized into control or IMT groups. Forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) were measured by spirometry; ...
FEV1, PEF, MIP, MEP and 6MWT distance significantly improved in both groups. IMT group also showed significant improvement in FVC. The increases in FVC, MIP, MEP and 6MWT distance of IMT group were si...
IMT is found to be beneficial for patients with AIS for achieving further improvements in respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity compared to conventional exercise pr...
Respiratory dysfunction in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) could present in the early stage and worsen in the late stages. These changes could be a factor affecting the ability of daily living ...
This was a cross-sectional study conducted at the Huashan Hospital of Fudan University in Shanghai, China. The study included 65 patients diagnosed with PD (the Hoehn and Yahr scale between 1 and 4) a...
Compared with the healthy individuals, there was no statistical significance in forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), and forced expiratory volume in 1 s/forced vital ca...
Our findings revealed that respiratory impairment is present in moderate and advanced PD patients, and directly related to the severity of the disease. It is important to conduct respiratory function ...
Scoliosis is a condition that affects the spine and causes chest rotation and trunk distortion. Individuals with severe deformities may experience dyspnea on exertion and develop respiratory failure. ...
Long-lasting symptoms following SARS-CoV2-infection have been described in several studies. However, there is only limited knowledge about the ongoing pathophysiology and the association with patholog...
In this post hoc analysis of a prospective trial, 135 patients following COVID-19 were enrolled and grouped with respect to the presence or absence of respiratory ongoing symptoms following COVID-19. ...
In this analysis, 71% (96/135) of all patients (mean age 49 years; range 20-91 years) reported long-lasting symptoms after a median (IQR) of 85 days (60-116) following COVID-19 whereby 57.8% (78/135) ...
Following COVID-19, a large proportion of patients experience ongoing symptoms, whereby the respiratory symptoms are the predominant complaints. Compared to asymptomatic patients, patients with ongoin...
