In this review, we have examined the role of lung function testing in infants and preschool children with CF.
In infants and children with chronic respiratory disease, hypoxia is a potential risk of aircraft travel.
Advances in statistical modelling have allowed the creation of smoothly changing spirometry reference ranges that apply across a wide age range and better...
We investigated predictors of nasopharyngeal carriage in Australian Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children.
The aim of our study was to determine the contribution of secular trends and sample size to lung function reference equations, and establish the number...
Respiratory function impacts on musical expression for wind/brass (W/B) musicians. Investigation of musicians' respiratory health to date has rarely...
In children, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV₁) to forced vital capacity (FVC) is reportedly constant or falls linearly with age...
Playing a wind or brass (W/B) instrument is considered a strenuous activity for the respiratory system.
A lung function study carried out by Dr Shannon Simpson provided the most comprehensive follow-up of very pre-term children of any study so far carried out on the lung health of this vulnerable group.
A global research network has taken another step towards standardising the way doctors interpret commonly used lung function tests.
