[Pulmonary function testing in children].
Pulmonary function testing in child can be realized in different circumstances: to confirm a diagnosis (asthma), to monitor evolution of a chronic pulmonary disease (asthma, bronchodysplasia, mucovicidosis...) or to quantify a possible pulmonary dysfunction in various pathologies (immune defect, dermatomyositis, scoliosis, drepanocytosis...).
