Inhalational versus Intravenous Induction of Anesthesia in Children with a High Risk of Perioperative Respiratory Adverse Events: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Anesthesiologists should consider using an intravenous propofol induction technique in children who are at high risk of experiencing perioperative respiratory adverse event

Selection of appropriate spirometry reference values in Aboriginal Australians

The Global Lung Function ‘Caucasian’ and ‘Other’ spirometry equations do not match healthy Aboriginal FEV1 and FVC data

Research

Could home-based FeNO measurements breathe new life into asthma management?

Developing a FeNO test that is affordable enough to allow daily measurements, patients will be able to access quantifiable data to assist them to monitor their asthma

The Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) Network ERS Clinical Research Collaboration: how international collaboration can shape clinical practice

The Global Lung Function Initiative is working to improve the interpretation of lung function: an update on current work and the opportunities for further engagement

Maternal exposure to indoor air pollution and birth outcomes

Although formaldehyde concentrations were very low, this finding is consistent with other studies of formaldehyde and poor birth outcomes

Characterization of maximal respiratory pressures in healthy children

Measurements of maximal voluntary inspiratory (Pi max) and expiratory (Pe max) pressures are used in the management of respiratory muscle disease...

No association between in utero exposure to emissions from a coalmine fire and post-natal lung function

Studies linking early life exposure to air pollution and subsequent impaired lung health have focused on chronic, low-level exposures in urban settings. We aimed to determine whether in utero exposure to an acute, high-intensity air pollution episode impaired lung function 7-years later.

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

Research

Lung function in African infants: A pilot study

Infant lung function (ILF) testing may provide useful information about lung growth and susceptibility to respiratory disease.
