Description
Summary:The paper describes current methods for evaluating external respiratory function in children, including younger ones. Particular attention is given to high-precision ultrasonic spirometry, the estimation of static lung volumes and ventilation irregularity index by nitrogen leaching with oxygen; that of quiet breathing parameters in infants (impulse oscillometry; airflow interruption technique, bronchophonography), and the study of biomarkers for respiratory tract infections (gas analytical methods with fractional determination of nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, analysis of exhaled breath condensate and composition of induced sputum).
