to provide individualized asthma management services during patient-pharmacist encounters for up to 1 year following the patient's enrollment into the study.Main Outcome Measures: The primary outcome measure was change in pulmonary function as measured by peak expiratory flow rate and spirometry. Seconda...
No differences were noted in demographic information, medical comorbidities, spirometry, compliance, asthma control, or asthma quality of life between LSA and LOA subjects. Conclusion: LSA subjects are more atopic and more likely to be given a peak flow meter, while LOA subjects have higher FENO ...
The model explained 35.9% of the peak VO2/kg variance. Conclusions The difference between VC and FVC, easily measured by spirometry, can be used not only as an index of severity of airflow limitation, but also to predict exercise performance in COPD patients. 展开 ...
The association between disease markers and health status (HS) overtime is unclear. The aim of this study was to verify the predictors of HS at baseline and after three years in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients. Methods Ninety-five consecutive COPD patients (66% male, age...
Moreover, obstructive pulmonary disease can be diagnosed through medical history, physical examination, spirometry, peak expiratory flow (PEF) test, fractional exhaled nitric oxide test (FeNO) test, arterial blood gas test, CT scan, and chest X-ray. Furthermore, treatment options for obstructive...
(aspirin) and food preservatives called sulphites. It can be diagnosed through medical history, physical examination, spirometry, peak flow, methacholine challenge, exhaled nitric oxide test, chest X-ray, CT scan, allergy test, and sputum eosinophils. Furthermore, treatment options for this condition...
