Predicting long term lung health outcomes in young adults born very preterm (WALHIP 19 year old follow-up)This study will conduct a detailed lung health assessment in a follow-up of a group of preterm individuals at 19 years of age.
Research
Characterisation of lung function trajectories and associated early-life predictors in an Australian birth cohort studyThere is growing evidence that lung function in early-life predicts later lung function. Adverse events over the lifespan might influence an individual’s lung function trajectory, resulting in poor respiratory health. The aim of this study is to identify early-life risk factors and their impact on lung function trajectories to prevent long-term lung impairments.
