[Lung function equipment for pediatric practice. Results of a comparative study].
Pulmonary function tests can be performed in general practice since small computerized spirometers have been developed. Pediatricians also see many patients with respiratory disease but measurement of lung function in children requires special considerations. We examined 10 commercially available spirometers to assess their suitability for testing pulmonary function in children.
