[Measurements of respiratory resistance in tracheal stenosis patients. A comparison of pressure changes with total-body plethysmography].
In this study, the airway resistance of 67 patients who suffered tracheal stenosis was measured by body plethysmography and by the pressure change method. These comparative measurements were carried out in order to assess the value of the pressure change method. There was significant linear correlation between the results for the two methods. The pressure change method is uncomplicated and mobile, and promises to have many practical applications.
