title: [Structural analysis of the information value of lung ventilation parameters for assessment of bronchodilation response in patients with bronchial asthma].
abstract: The goal of this work was to perform structural analysis of the information value of lung ventilation parameters for assessment of bronchodilation response in patients with bronchial asthma. The information value of lung ventilation parameters is considered as a function of the initial level of ventilation disorders and the method of calculation of bronchodilation response. Structural analysis revealed that different lung ventilation parameters have different information value for assessment of bronchodilation response in patients with bronchial asthma. The effect of the method of calculation and the initial severity of ventilation disorders on the information value of lung ventilation parameters is also rather complex. Parameters with maximal information value for analysis of the results of broncholytic tests in patients with bronchial asthma are determined. These parameters have high information value independently of the method of calculation.
