BACKGROUND: Lung function in children with persistent asthma may be impaired during preschool and school ages. The aim of this study was to describe if some preschool impulse oscillometry (IOS) parameters are related to spirometry alterations on reaching school age. METHODS: In 66 diagnosed with persistent asthma, an IOS was performed at entrance and followed-up to school age where a spirometry was done. RESULTS: The mean age was 4.9 years at the first evaluation and 7.9 years at the second evaluation, and 59.1% were male. During preschool, R5, R20, Fres, AX, and D5-20 were found to have diagnostic accuracy (area under the curve > 0.7) for predicting abnormal spirometry during school age (defined as FEV1 and/or FEV/FVC and/or FVC values below the lower limit of normality according to Quanjer predictive values). AX, D5-20, and R5 had the best LR+ to increase the probability of abnormal spirometry (50, 10, and 7.1, respectively). R20, R5, and AX was the best IOS parameters for discriminating bronchodilator response (BDR) in schoolchildren (LR+ = 3.4, 2.9, and 2.8, respectively). CONCLUSION: The findings of this study indicate that some IOS parameters between 3 and 5 years of age are useful for predicting abnormal spirometry and BDR at school age.
