This Monograph offers a comprehensive review of the lung function techniques available in paediatric pulmonology. This field is still developing rapidly and equipment and software can tell us more than ever about respiratory physiology in health and disease in children with various lung disorders. Experts from around the globe provide a review of the techniques used, with a special focus on clinical applications and their usefulness in diagnosing and treating children with chronic lung disease.

This book represents a comprehensive review of the most recent developments in paediatric pulmonary function testing and their clinical applications in common paediatric respiratory disorders. The first section reviews the current lung function tests used in infants and toddlers who are by nature unable to cooperate with most testing procedures. It describes the methodologies, provides normal values where available, and gives advice for data interpretation. The second section deals with the classic adult-type pulmonary function tests and their application in the semi-cooperative or cooperative.

Paediatric Respiratory Medicine Second edition remains the first point of reference for those faced with treating acute or chronic respiratory problems. The handbook discusses the approach to clinical problems, specific conditions, supportive care and practical procedures, and includes vital appendices covering specific tests and statistics. Designed as a practical guide, it serves general and specialist paediatricians at both consultant and trainee level. The book is divided into five parts. Part I provides a practical approach to acute and non-acute clinical problems. Part II provides detailed information about common and more rare clinical conditions. Part III provides useful information on supportive care, including for example, use of non-invasive ventilation and the care of a child with a tracheotomy. Part IV gives details on how to perform several practical procedures, such as ciliary brush biopsy, flexible bronchoscopy, and inserting a chest drain. The appendices provide information on lung function testing and tables of age-corrected normal values for several respiratory parameters. Written by three consultants in paediatric respiratory medicine, their expertise in the subject provides all levels of paediatricians with practical guide on a subject that is increasingly relevant in paediatrics.

Abstract Background: Lung function tests (LFT) provide valuable insights into respiratory physiology, and have been proven to be useful outcome measures in both clinical research and the clinical management of children with lung disease. Standardised methods and appropriate interpretation are, however, essential if these measurements are to be applied reliably. The aims of this thesis were to improve the application and interpretation of LFT's in children and to determine the extent to which ethnic differences in lung function (LF) occurred between healthy Black and White children after adjusting for height, sex and age. Methods: A series of investigations using four commercially available LFT (Impulse oscillometry (IOS), specific airways resistance (sRaw), plethysmographic lung volumes, and spirometry) involving 400 healthy children (214 Black and 186 White) aged 4-12y were undertaken. Upon determining the most appropriate methods for interpreting LF in health, the LFT's and a respiratory health questionnaire were applied to children with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) to determine the extent to which each outcome measure identified LF abnormalities in these children. Results: Reference data for measurements of sRaw in children were developed as well as recommendations for interpreting spirometry and plethysmography in Black children. Despite the relatively high proportion of respiratory symptoms reported in SCD, the proportion of children with LF results falling outside the limits of normal was relatively small, and a pattern of restrictive lung disease was observed. Of the outcomes assessed in this thesis, spirometry appeared to be the most robust outcome measure for routine assessment of LF in SCD. Conclusions: Results from this thesis contribute to the literature that SCD is primarily associated with restrictive lung disease. Furthermore, the new interpretation strategies developed during the work for this thesis prevented significant misinterpretation of LF in Black children, and improved the standards for using these LFT's in children.

The textbook "Paediatric Pulmonary Function Testing: Indications and Interpretation" is a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the latest lung function techniques for infants and children addressed to paediatric respiratory medical practitioners. Experienced European and North American authorities in the field of pediatric pulmonology provide an essential tool for fellows, paediatricians and paediatric pulmonologists caring for patients with pulmonary diseases. This book is extensive, comprehensive and practical for the clinical setting as it:*Covers all lung function tests with extended analysis of reference equations and Z-score evaluation*Provides practical guidance on the interpretation of functional pulmonary tests and evaluation examples, demonstrating what information is critical for everyday clinical application*Introduces novel techniques such as ventilation inhomogeneity, while details such as exhaled nitric oxide and exhaled breath condensates are comprehensively analysed*Includes indications and interpretations of analyses of blood gases, hemoglobin saturation, capnography and acid-base balance*Contains a chapter on the selection and use of each pulmonary function test as applied in the clinical investigation of patients with respiratory problems
