Measurement duration impacts variability but not impedance measured by the forced oscillation technique in healthy, asthma and COPD subjects

Measurement duration impacts variability but not impedance measured by the forced oscillation technique in healthy, asthma and COPD subjects

The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is gaining clinical acceptance, facilitated by more commercial devices and clinical data. However, the effects of variations in testing protocols used in FOT data acquisition are unknown. We describe the effect of duration of data acquisition on FOT results in...
