Forced oscillation technique as a predictor of FEV1 improvement in asthma

Highlights • The usefulness of the forced oscillation technique for untreated asthma is unclear. • We assessed whether FOT could predict a 10% improvement in FEV1. • Respiratory resistance at 5 Hz (R5) of the FOT was an improved parameter. • In the multivariate analyses, the R5 independently predict...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • The usefulness of the forced oscillation technique for untreated asthma is unclear. • We assessed whether FOT could predict a 10% improvement in FEV1. • Respiratory resistance at 5 Hz (R5) of the FOT was an improved parameter. • In the multivariate analyses, the R5 independently predicted improvement. • R5 assessed before treatment is a good predictor of an FEV1 improvement of 10%.
