Measuring Lung Function with Oscillometry in Children

Oscillometry is a simple way to quickly measure lung function in pediatric patients and to better understand how well respiratory treatments are working. Through regular breathing, oscillometry provides measures of resistance to airflow and lung compliance.

In this video, Kate Hamlington Smith, PhD, shares a detailed overview for obtaining oscillometry measurements, including the resistance and reactance components of impedance over time.
