  • Title: Upper airway obstruction in children. The value of inspiratory-expiratory flow-volume curves.
    Author: Frenkiel S, Desmond K, Coates AL, Beaudry PH, Wise MB.
    Journal: J Otolaryngol; 1980 Feb; 9(1):7-11. PubMed ID: 7359615.
    Abstract:
    The physiological assessment of upper respiratory tract obstruction using inspiratory-expiratory flow-volume curves is a valuable non-invasive procedure in children. The technique employed at the Montreal Children's Hospital with appropriate case material is presented. Although flow-volume curves can reliably diagnose and localize a large airway obstruction, these lesions are readily monitored by spirometric testing.
