Pulmonary function test for airway allergic diseases in pediatrics / 国际儿科学杂志

ABSTRACT

The damage of pulmonary function starts early in children for airway allergic diseases and increasing the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).The prevalence of airway allergic diseases in children is rising year by year,and easily recurrent on-set.It is clear that low lung function in infancy can precede the development of subsequent asthma in childhood and childhood asthma may persist to teenagers and even in the adults and the impairment of pulmonary function also starts early in life and continue to exist.Children with allergic rhinitis suffer from impaired lung function.Allergic rhinitis may impact the recovery of pulmonary function testing after moderate/severe asthma exacerbation in children.Pulmonary function testing can be used to determine the growth and Trajectory of children lung function and the effect of diseases.Pulmonary function testing is an important index to evaluate the status of asthma control and remission,meanwhile,children with allergic rhinitis suffer from impaired lung function to varying degrees.
