| Popis: | To evaluate tidal breathing (TB) flow-volume and flow-time curves for identification of expiratory airway obstruction in infants.Pulmonary function tests were analyzed retrospectively in 156 infants aged 3-24 months with persistent or recurrent respiratory complaints. Parameters derived from TB curves were compared to maximal expiratory flow at functional residual capacity (TB parameters that were best correlated toTB curves can assist in ruling out severe expiratory airway obstruction in infants. |
