Use of Impulse Oscillometry in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
This study showed that airway resistance was increased in the COPD group and that IOS parameters were associated with measures of small-airway function in standard PFTs. IOS can be used as a non-invasive, patient-friendly method that complements PFTs by providing a comprehensive assessment of COPD pathology and pathophysiological changes and detecting changes in symptomatic patients.
