  1. Iron(III) fluoride - Wikipedia

    Iron(III) fluoride, also known as ferric fluoride, are inorganic compounds with the formula FeF 3 (H 2 O) x where x = 0 or 3. They are mainly of interest by researchers, unlike the related iron(III) chloride. Anhydrous iron(III) fluoride is white, whereas the hydrated forms are light pink. [2]

  2. FEF

    The forced mid-expiratory flow (FEF 25-75%) value is a potentially sensitive marker of obstructive peripheral airflow. We aimed to assess whether FEF 25-75% can be an early predictor of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Patients and Methods

  3. Office Spirometry: Indications and Interpretation | AAFP

    Mar 15, 2020 · Airway obstruction is suspected when there is a decreased forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity (FEV 1 /FVC) ratio, but there is no strong evidence to clearly define what...

  4. Union Pacific FEF series - Wikipedia

    The Union Pacific FEF series consists of 45 4-8-4 "Northern" steam locomotives built by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) between 1937 and 1944 and operated by the Union Pacific Railroad until 1959. Like the other Union Pacific steam classes, the acronym comes from the first letter of the spelling of its wheel arrangement: Four Eight Four.

  5. Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT) - Overview and Understanding

    Forced expiratory flow (FEF). This is the average rate of flow during the FVC test. The usual discrete intervals are at 25%, 50%, and 75% of the FVC exhaled (FEF25, FEF50, and FEF75). It can also be given as a mean of the flow during an interval, usually 25–75% (FEF25–75%). Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR).

  6. Predicted values for the forced expiratory flow adjusted for forced ...

    Dec 14, 2020 · FEFs may be more sensitive in detecting peripheral airway obstruction compared to FEV1 or FVC. However, they are highly variable. Adjusting the FEF by dividing it by FVC may partially solve this. This article provides FVC-adjusted FEF reference equations. https://bit.ly/2IG2fsx.

  7. FEF | definition of FEF by Medical dictionary

    forced expiratory flow (FEF) the rate of airflow recorded in measurements of forced vital capacity, usually calculated as an average flow over a given portion of the expiratory curve; the portion between 25 and 75 per cent of forced vital capacity is called the maximal midexpiratory flow. Called also forced expiratory flow rate.

  8. FEF Abbreviation Meaning - All Acronyms

    The abbreviation FEF commonly refers to Forced Expiratory Flow, a measure used in pulmonary function tests to assess the flow of air from the lungs during expiration. This measurement is crucial in diagnosing and monitoring respiratory conditions, particularly obstructive lung diseases.

  9. A Low Forced Expiratory Flow of 25% to 75% May Indicate Early …

    Dec 16, 2022 · Forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of vital capacity (FEF 25-75) is likely to identify patients with early evidence of pathologic lung damage in need of careful monitoring and early intervention to prevent additional lung injury, according to study findings published in BMJ Open Respiratory Research.

  10. The Association of FEF

    FEF 25-75 is associated with symptoms, but its utility independent of FEV 1/ FVC or FEV 1 is likely limited. Future studies are necessary in order to better understand the role of FEF 25-75 and BDR as predictors of morbidity and markers of loss of control.
