Early lung disease in infants and preschool children with cystic fibrosis: What have we learned and what should we do about it?

This review summarizes what we have learned about early lung disease in children with CF and discusses the implications for clinical practice and research

Research

The influence of sighing respirations on infant lung function measured using multiple breath washout gas mixing techniques

There is substantial interest in studying lung function in infants, to better understand the early life origins of chronic lung diseases such as asthma.

Research

ERS/ATS technical standard on interpretive strategies for routine lung function tests

Appropriate interpretation of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) involves the classification of observed values as within/outside the normal range based on a reference population of healthy individuals, integrating knowledge of physiological determinants of test results into functional classifications and integrating patterns with other clinical data to estimate prognosis.
