Interpretation of Pulmonary Function Tests
This guide provides practical, clinical coverage of various types of pulmonary function testing as it applies to a host of disease conditions.
Pulmonary Function Testing
This book serves as a unique, comprehensive resource for physicians and scientists training in pulmonary medicine and learning about pulmonary function testing. Pulmonary function testing and the physiological principles that underlie it are often poorly understood by medical students, residents, fellows and graduate students training in the medical sciences. One reason is that students tend to get overwhelmed by the basic mathematical descriptions that explain the working of the respiratory system and the principles of pulmonary function testing. Another reason is that too many approaches focus on the math without explaining the clinical relevance of these principles and the laboratory test...
Lung Function Testing
Although diagnosis always begins with a careful history and physical examination and a physician is obligated to consider more than the diseased organ, testing of lung function has become standard practice to confirm the diagnosis, evaluate the severity of respiratory impairment, assess the therapy response and follow-up patients with various cardio-respiratory disorders. Ventilation, diffusion, blood flow and control of breathing are the major components of respiration and one or more of these functional components can be affected by any disorder. Frequently, no single pulmonary function test.
Pulmonary Function Tests in Clinical Practice
Complete review of pulmonary function tests in clinical practice, including performance and interpretation of lung function tests with an emphasis on practical aspects. Review of polysomnographic techniques and interpretive strategies again with a practical hands-on approach. An integrative aproach to cardiopulmonary exercise testing with interpretive strategy. Includes case discussions illustrating key concepts.
Pulmonary Function Tests in Clinical Practice
This revised and updated book provides a simplified approach to interpreting most diagnostic tests in the field of respiratory medicine. Easy to understand and practical, it contains more than 125 illustrated diagrams and over 50 tables with essential information that summarize the various diagnostic tests and interpretative approaches in a simple and understandable fashion. Of special note are chapters on exercise testing and diagnostic tests for sleep disorders, the latter a new and emerging field. This new edition contains revised information based on the newest ATS guidelines. Pulmonary Function Tests in Clinical Practice Second Edition assists residents and fellows in internal medicine, pulmonology, allergology and critical care by explaining the key information obtained from lung volume measurement and increases understanding of pulmonary function tests within the modern diagnostic armamentarium.
Pulmonary Function Testing
Covers the most commonly performed pulmonary function tests, separated into individual chapters to allow a full overview of each test ...contains updated material including the latest guidelines and recommendations from the American Thoracic Society, the American Association for Respiratory Care, and the European Respiratory Society. Also included are new expanded chapters covering Maximal Inspiratory Testing, Expiratory Pressures Testing, Pediatrics, Blood Gases, and Reference Values.

Interpreting Lung Function Tests
Lung function assessment is the central pillar of modern respiratory diagnosis, providing invaluable information to assist in clinical decision making and management strategies.Interpreting Lung Function Tests: A Step-by Step Guide is a practical “how-to” training manual, which provides the reader with the necessary skills to interpret lung function test results, and to write a concise and informative report on the outcome. Interpreting Lung Function Tests: A Step-by Step Guide provides unique guidance on the reporting of pulmonary function tests, including illustrative cases and sample reports. utilizes the many references available on interpretation of lung function and provides a teac...
Lung Function Tests
This book is a visually appealing, concise guide to pulmonary function testing. It gives practical advice on how to use and interpret these tests in the clinical setting. In particular, there are guidelines on when to test and what to order, combined withexplanations of how to interpret actual test results quickly and easily. Indicates the benefits and limitations of available tests and gives practical advice on how to run an efficient pulmonary function laboratory Provides examples of pulmonary function test patterns in different clinical settings Advises on how pulmonary function tests should be presented and reported to clinicians Covers important areas outside the pulmonary function laboratory, e.g. paediatrics, intensive care, sleep and breathing, domiciliary care Eye-catching text design with use of tinted boxes to highlight Calculations and Key Points
Interpretation of Pulmonary Function Tests
Interpretation of Pulmonary Function Tests, 4th edition provides practical, clinically relevant coverage of all types of pulmonary function testing as it applies to a host of disease conditions. It is aimed at any reader with a basic knowledge of pulmonary physiology and provides a solid basis for administering and interpreting these tests. The authors provide valuable guidance for day-to-day clinical work, e.g., in chapters entitled "When to Test and What to Order" and "Approaches to Interpreting Pulmonary Function Tests." The book also features over 40 illustrative cases that readers can use for self-testing and for reinforcing the principles discussed elsewhere in the book.
Lung Function Tests Made Easy E-Book
Lung function testing has evolved over the years from a tool purely used for research and is now a commonly utilised form of clinical investigation. This new book is clear, concise and easy to read, providing both the essential scientific information as well as focusing on the practical aspects of lung function testing. The book is designed so that different chapters can be read as stand-alone sections, but cross-referencing to the other chapters completes the picture for the interested reader. - The book begins with an outline of lung structure and anatomy, and then proceeds to basic functional considerations before discussing the tests themselves. - Particular attention is given to spirometry and lung volume measurements. - The text covers the functional assessment of exercise capacity, respiratory muscle strength and concludes with preoperative evaluation and recommendations. - The text emphasises practical problems, including controversies associated with lung function testing. - Boxes emphasise important topics throughout the text. - Highlighted questions can be used for short tutorials or problem-based learning
