The Correlation between Lung Sound Distribution and Pulmonary Function in COPD Patients
BACKGROUND Regional lung sound intensity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients is influenced by the severity and distribution of emphysema, obstructed peripheral airways, and altered ribcage and diaphragm configurations and movements due to hyperinflation. Changes in the lung sound distribution accompanied by pulmonary function improvements in COPD patients were observed afte...
متن کاملChester step test in patients with COPD: reliability and correlation with pulmonary function test results.
BACKGROUND The 5-stage Chester step test assesses aerobic capacity in healthy subjects. It has not been tested in patients with COPD. OBJECTIVE To determine the reliability of the Chester step test in patients with COPD and correlation with pulmonary function test and exercise test results. METHODS Thirty-two patients (mean ± SD FEV(1) 46 ± 15% of predicted) undertook 2 Chester step tests a...

متن کاملEvaluation of CT angiography findings in the patients with clinical diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism
Background and Aim: Pulmonary thromboembolism is an important clinical problem in the patients after major surgeries and is often difficult to diagnose because of nonspecific clinical symptoms. Diagnosis of pulmonary embolism is based on medical imaging methods. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of CT pulmonary angiographies of the patients with primary clinical diagnosis of pul...
