Prediction bias in spirometry reference equations can arise from combining equations for different age groups,...

In this review, we have examined the role of lung function testing in infants and preschool children with CF.

In infants and children with chronic respiratory disease, hypoxia is a potential risk of aircraft travel.

Advances in statistical modelling have allowed the creation of smoothly changing spirometry reference ranges that apply across a wide age range and better...

A lung function study carried out by Dr Shannon Simpson provided the most comprehensive follow-up of very pre-term children of any study so far carried out on the lung health of this vulnerable group.

A global research network has taken another step towards standardising the way doctors interpret commonly used lung function tests.

A groundbreaking WA trial, published in The Lancet, has determined that a laryngeal mask for babies is preferred over endotracheal tube during minor surgeries

This prospective, longitudinal cohort study will examine airway sputum, lung function, and clinical surveillance data of children with bronchiectasis attending Perth Children’s Hospital.

Dissociative symptoms are linked to experiences of trauma, often originating in childhood and adolescence. Dissociative disorders are associated with a high burden of illness and a poor quality of life. Despite evidence suggesting that early intervention can improve outcomes, little research exists on the treatment of dissociative disorders in childhood and adolescence.

Almost 50 per cent of preschool children will experience at least one episode of wheeze, a whistling sound produced by the airways during breathing.
