Lung volume and ventilation inhomogeneity in preterm infants at 15-18 months corrected age

To assess whether lung volume and ventilation inhomogeneity in preterm infants at 15-18 months corrected age

Forced oscillation technique

Healthy lungs help you to breathe better. This means you can sleep better, as well as play sports, run and walk without being short winded.

Prediction of peri-operative adverse respiratory events in children: The role of exhaled nitric oxide.

Increased levels of exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) may be a more objective predictor in identifying children at higher risk of peri-operative adverse respiratory...

The influence of sighing respirations on infant lung function measured using multiple breath washout gas mixing techniques

There is substantial interest in studying lung function in infants, to better understand the early life origins of chronic lung diseases such as asthma.

Rationale, design and methods for the 22 year follow-up of the Western Australian Pregnancy Cohort (Raine) Study

Young adulthood is a critical life period for health and health behaviours.

The 'Can't Intubate Can't Oxygenate' scenario in pediatric anesthesia: A comparison of the Melker cricothyroidotomy kit with a scalpel bougie technique

While the majority of pediatric intubations are uncomplicated, the 'Can't intubate, Can't Oxygenate' scenario (CICO) does occur.

Lung function in African infants: A pilot study

Unsedated infant lung function measures of tidal breathing, MBW, and eNO are feasible in a semi-rural African setting

Early respiratory infection is associated with reduced spirometry in children with cystic fibrosis

We hypothesized that the presence of these markers of cystic fibrosis lung disease in the first 2 years of life would be associated with reduced lung...

Peri-operative adverse respiratory events in children

We screened for risk factors from children's and their families' histories, and assessed the usefulness of common markers of allergic sensitisation of the...
