The
test of the pulmonary function represents an auxiliary method for the specialty
medical examination the patient to determine if there are signs and symptoms
relevant to a pulmonary pathology. This is the basis of a new article by
Antonella Chesca and Tim Sandle.
The
abstract runs:
“This
study evaluates the respiratory parameters associated with pulmonary diseases.
The study was centred on a comparative evaluation of the pulmonary function
during the same two periods of two different years: January - February 2013 and
January – February 2014. The data was analysed and comparison was undertaken
between the severity of the pulmonary diseases symptoms requiring spirometries,
during the cold season in two succeeding years. The study applied to
symptomatic patients suffering from COPD or asthma who were referred to the
Specialty Outpatient Department of the Pneumophthisiology Hospital of Brasov.
To determine the diagnosis and to apply the appropriate medication, the study
examined the function tests by spirometry for each of the patients in the study
group. As applicable, spirometry was carried out by tests using salbutamol,
according to the orders of the specialty doctor. The analysis of the study data
enabled the creation of the profile of the symptomatic patients.”
