Abstrakt: Introduction: We aimed to determine normal thresholds for positive bronchodilator responses for oscillometry in an Australian general population sample aged ≥40 years, to guide clinical interpretation. We also examined relationships between bronchodilator responses and respiratory symptoms, asthma diagnosis, smoking and baseline lung function.
Methods: Subjects recruited from Sydney, Melbourne and Busselton, Australia, underwent measurements of spirometry, resistance ( R rs 6 ) and reactance ( X rs 6 ) at 6 Hz, before and after inhalation of salbutamol 200 μg. Respiratory symptoms and/or medication use, asthma diagnosis, and smoking were recorded. Threshold bronchodilator responses were defined as the fifth percentile of decrease in R rs 6 and 95th percentile increase in X rs 6 in a healthy subgroup.
Results: Of 1318 participants, 1145 (570 female) were analysed. The lower threshold for Δ R rs 6 was -1.38 cmH 2 O·s·L -1 (-30.0% or -1.42 Z-scores) and upper threshold for Δ X rs 6 was 0.57 cmH 2 O·s·L -1 (1.36 Z-scores). Respiratory symptoms and/or medication use, asthma diagnosis, and smoking all predicted bronchodilator response, as did baseline oscillometry and spirometry. When categorised into clinically relevant groups according to those predictors, Δ X rs 6 was more sensitive than spirometry in smokers without current asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), ∼20% having a positive response. Using absolute or Z-score change provided similar prevalences of responsiveness, except in COPD, in which responsiveness measured by absolute change was twice that for Z-score.
Discussion: This study describes normative thresholds for bronchodilator responses in oscillometry parameters, including intra-breath parameters, as determined by absolute, relative and Z-score changes. Positive bronchodilator response by oscillometry correlated with clinical factors and baseline function, which may inform the clinical interpretation of oscillometry.
