Jul 30, 2018 · This 6V, battery operated, low resistance dry bellows spirometer was used extensively in epidemiological field studies from the 1970s to the 1990s. The example shown is a rigid frame model but another model with collapsible legs was available to increase its portability. The initial models of the spirometer displayed the FEV 1 (or FEV 0.75) and

Mar 14, 2016 · The FEV 0.5 is considered more reproducible than the Peak Expiratory Flow and has been used to assess cough. Although normal values for the FEV 0.5 were included in the reference equations from the 1961 VA-Army and Kunudson’s 1976 spirometry study this measurement has rarely been used in adults but has instead found extensive use when ...

Feb 17, 2017 · We have a number of patients who have spirometry and DLCO testing performed at regular intervals. I’ve noticed that every so often DLCO results change significantly without a change in spirometry (or lung volumes) or there’s a modest change in spirometry and a marked change in DLCO.

Mar 24, 2016 · However, if isolated small airways disease does in fact exist (normal FEV 1, low FEF 25-75), this is a huge step in the are of pulmonary medicine and may offer relief to those patients. I have an interesting question for Richard - I'm sure you have conversations with your patients while performing PFTS.

FEV(1) is 2.09 (103% predicted - up from 58% predicted in May 2016) and my FVC(L) is 2.22 (91% predicted up from 52 in May ). Both results have increased gradually over the last nine months. However, my TLCO result is 2,74 (39% predicted - up from 25% predicted in May) I am prescribed Mycophenolate and Prednisolone.
