Preschool Multiple-Breath Washout Testing. An Official American Thoracic Society Technical Statement

Consensus recommendations are outlined to direct preschool device design, test performance, and data analysis for the MBW technique

Research

Multiple-breath washout outcomes are sensitive to inflammation and infection in children with cystic fibrosis

The lung clearance index may be a useful surveillance tool for monitoring the presence and extent of lower airway inflammation and infection

Inhaled corticosteroids to improve lung function in children (aged 6–12 years) who were born very preterm (PICSI): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial

Despite the substantial burden of lung disease throughout childhood in children who were born very preterm, there are no evidence-based interventions to improve lung health beyond the neonatal period. We tested the hypothesis that inhaled corticosteroid improves lung function in this population.
