Factors affecting ventilatory function in the child with asthma.
Exacerbations of asthma in children are often attributed to events producing stress or excitement, climatic changes, and infections; Peshkin (1959) showed that a marked clinical improvement often occurred on removing a child from his home environment. Purcell (1963), interviewing 20 asthmatic children described as rapidly remitting on withdrawal from their home environment, found that 15 of the...
متن کاملReference values for lung function tests. II. Maximal respiratory pressures and voluntary ventilation.
The strength of the respiratory muscles can be evaluated from static measurements (maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, MIP and MEP) or inferred from dynamic maneuvers (maximal voluntary ventilation, MVV). Although these data could be suitable for a number of clinical and research applications, no previous studies have provided reference values for such tests using a healthy, randomly ...
متن کاملNeural and humoral factors affecting ventilatory response during exercise.
The principle of feedback control is thought to be fundamental for maintaining homeostasis in biological systems. In the respiratory system, constancy of arterial Pcoz, Poz, and pH is also maintained essentially by means of a feedback control system. For the sake of simplicity, let's assume that the respiratory system is regulated by only one controlled variable, Pa~oz. According to control the...
متن کاملFactors Affecting the Extrusion Rate of Ventilation Tubes
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine the various factors that affect the extrusion rate of ventilation tubes (VTs), including the nature of the middle ear effusion. METHODS A retrospective chart review of 82 pediatric patients (177 ears) who received VT insertion surgery under general anesthesia was carried out to evaluate the relationship between various factors and the VT...
متن کاملFactors affecting adrenocortical hormone function.
This paper will briefly outline those elements which must be considered in assessing the effects of any given compound which might impinge on the actions of adrenocortical steroids. Considerations that ought to be taken into account include the following: the delivery to the affected cells of corticosteroids, the uptake of the hormone by the cells, the metabolism of the hormone by the cells, th...
