Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical significance of the impulse oscillometry-defined small airway bronchodilator response (IOS-BDR) is not well-known. Accordingly, this study investigated the clinical characteristics of IOS-BDR and explored the association between lung function decline, acute respiratory exacerbations, and IOS-BDR. METHODS Participants were recruited from an Early Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (ECOPD) cohort subset and were followed up for two years with visits at baseline, 12 months, and 24 months. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was defined as a post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio < 0.70. IOS-BDR was defined as meeting any one of the following criteria: an absolute change in respiratory system resistance at 5 Hz ≤ - 0.137 kPa/L/s, an absolute change in respiratory system reactance at 5 Hz ≥ 0.055 kPa/L/s, or an absolute change in reactance area ≤ - 0.390 kPa/L. The association between IOS-BDR and a decline in lung function was explored with linear mixed-effects model. The association between IOS-BDR and the risk of acute respiratory exacerbations at the two-year follow-up was analyzed with the logistic regression model. RESULTS This study involved 466 participants (92 participants with IOS-BDR and 374 participants without IOS-BDR). Participants with IOS-BDR had higher COPD assessment test and modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale scores, more severe emphysema, air trapping, and rapid decline in FVC than those without IOS-BDR over 2-year follow-up. IOS-BDR was not associated with the risk of acute respiratory exacerbations at the 2-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The participants with IOS-BDR had more respiratory symptoms, radiographic structural changes, and had an increase in decline in lung function than those without IOS-BDR.

Oscillometry and spirometry are not interchangeable when assessing the bronchodilator response in children and young adults born preterm. Pediatr Pulmonol 2023; 58:3122-3132. [PMID: 37539845 PMCID: PMC10947568 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26632] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The European Respiratory Society Oscillometry Taskforce identified that clinical correlates of bronchodilator responses are needed to advance oscillometry in clinical practice. The understanding of bronchodilator-induced oscillometry changes in preterm lung disease is poor. Here we describe a comparison of bronchodilator assessments performed using oscillometry and spirometry in a population born very preterm and explore the relationship between bronchodilator-induced changes in respiratory function and clinical outcomes. METHODS Participants aged 6-23 born ≤32 (N = 288; 132 with bronchopulmonary dysplasia) and ≥37 weeks' gestation (N = 76, term-born controls) performed spirometry and oscillometry. A significant bronchodilator response (BDR) to 400 μg salbutamol was classified according to published criteria. RESULTS A BDR was identified in 30.9% (n = 85) of preterm-born individuals via spirometry and/or oscillometry, with poor agreement between spirometry and oscillometry definitions (k = 0.26; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.18-0.40, p < .001). Those born preterm with a BDR by oscillometry but not spirometry had increased wheeze (33% vs. 11%, p = .010) and baseline resistance (Rrs5 z-score mean difference (MD) = 0.86, 95% CI 0.07-1.65, p = .025), but similar baseline spirometry to the group without a BDR (forced expiratory volume in 1 s [FEV1 ] z-score MD = -0.01, 95% CI -0.66 to 0.68, p > .999). Oscillometry was more feasible than spirometry (95% success rate vs. 85% (FEV1 ), 69% (forced vital capacity) success rate, p < .001), however being born preterm did not affect test feasibility. CONCLUSION In the preterm population, oscillometry is a feasible and clinically useful supportive test to assess the airway response to inhaled salbutamol. Changes measured by oscillometry reflect related but distinct physiological changes to those measured by spirometry, and thus these tests should not be used interchangeably.

Abstract
Background Published reference equations for impulse oscillometry (IOS) usually encompass a specific age group but not the entire lifespan. This may lead to discordant predicted values when two or more non-coincident equations can be applied to the same person, or when a person moves from one equation to the next non-convergent equation as he or she gets older. Thus, our aim was to provide a single reference equation for each IOS variable that could be applied from infancy to old age. Methods This was an ambispective cross-sectional study in healthy nonsmokers, most of whom lived in Mexico City, who underwent IOS according to international standards. A multivariate piecewise linear regression, also known as segmented regression, was used to obtain reference equations for each IOS variable. Results In a population of 830 subjects (54.0% female) aged 2.7 to 90 years (54.8% children ≤12 years), segmented regression estimated two breakpoints for age in almost all IOS variables, except for R5-R20 in which only one breakpoint was detected. With this approach, multivariate regressions including sex, age, height and body mass index as independent variables were constructed, and coefficients for calculating predicted value, lower and upper limits of normal, percentage of predicted and z-score were obtained. Conclusions Our study provides IOS reference equations that include the major determinants of lung function, i.e. sex, age, height and body mass index, that can be easily implemented for subjects of almost any age.

Abstract
Airway resistance measurements using oscillometry provide a potential alternative to spirometry in assessing airway obstruction and dynamics due to measurements taken during tidal breathing. Oscillometry typically requires participants to form a tight seal around a mouthpiece that can prove challenging for some people. To address this challenge, we conducted a prospective study to evaluate the effect of different interfaces like mouthpiece, mouth mask, and nasal mask on respiratory impedance results from oscillometry in a cohort of healthy adults. Ten healthy adults [7 females; mean age: 38.9 yr (SD ±15.5)] underwent oscillometry using each of the three interfaces. We measured resistance at 5 Hz (Rrs5), frequency dependence of resistance at 5-20 Hz (Rrs5-20), and reactance area (Ax). Rrs5 was not different when using the mouthpiece compared with the mouth mask [mean 2.98 cmH2O/L/s (SD ±0.68) vs. mean 3.2 cmH2O/L/s (SD ±0.81); P = 0.92; 95% CI -0.82 to +0.38], respectively. Nasal mask Rrs5 measurements were significantly higher than mouthpiece measurements (mean 7.31 cmH2O/L/s; SD ±2.62; P < 0.01; 95%CI -6.91 to -1.75). With Ax5, we found a mean of 4.01 cmH2O/L (SD ±2.04) with the mouth mask compared with a mean of 4.02 cmH2O/L (SD ±1.87; P = 1.0 95% CI -1.86 to +1.87) for the mouthpiece, however, we found a significant difference between the mouthpiece and nasal mask for Ax (mean = 10.71; SD ±7.0 H2O/L; P = 0.04, 95% CI -12.96 to -0.43). Our findings show that oscillometry using a mouth mask may be just as effective as using a mouthpiece in assessing airway dynamics and resistance.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This is the first study to compare the use of different interfaces: mouthpiece, mouth mask, and nasal mask, for oscillometry in an adult population. We report that using a mouth mask in oscillometry may provide a valid alternative to a mouthpiece in cohorts who may struggle to form the required tight seal that is typically required in oscillometry or spirometry.

Abstract
Respiratory oscillometry is gaining global attention over traditional pulmonary function tests for its sensitivity in detecting small airway obstructions. However, its use in clinical settings as a diagnostic tool is limited because oscillometry lacks globally accepted reference values. In this scoping review, we systematically assessed the differences between selected oscillometric reference equations with the hypothesis that significant heterogeneity existed between them. We searched bibliographic databases, registries and references for studies that developed equations for healthy adult populations according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A widely used Caucasian model was used as the standard reference and compared against other models using Bland-Altman and Lin's concordance correlational analyses. We screened 1202 titles and abstracts, and after a full-text review of 67 studies, we included 10 in our analyses. Of these, three models had a low-to-moderate agreement with the reference model, particularly those developed from non-Caucasian populations. Although the other six models had a moderate-to-high agreement with the standard model, there were still significant sex-specific variations. This is the first systematic analysis of the heterogeneity between oscillometric reference models and warrants the validation of appropriate equations in clinical applications of oscillometry to avoid diagnostic errors.

Abstract
Recently, “Technical standards for respiratory oscillometry” was published, which reviewed the physiological basis of oscillometric measures and detailed the technical factors related to equipment and test performance, quality assurance and reporting of results. Here we present a review of the clinical significance and applications of oscillometry. We briefly review the physiological principles of oscillometry and the basics of oscillometry interpretation, and then describe what is currently known about oscillometry in its role as a sensitive measure of airway resistance, bronchodilator responsiveness and bronchial challenge testing, and response to medical therapy, particularly in asthma and COPD. The technique may have unique advantages in situations where spirometry and other lung function tests are not suitable, such as in infants, neuromuscular disease, sleep apnoea and critical care. Other potential applications include detection of bronchiolitis obliterans, vocal cord dysfunction and the effects of environmental exposures. However, despite great promise as a useful clinical tool, we identify a number of areas in which more evidence of clinical utility is needed before oscillometry becomes routinely used for diagnosing or monitoring respiratory disease. This paper provides a current review of the interpretation, clinical significance and application of oscillometry in respiratory medicine, with special emphasis on limitations of evidence and suggestions for future research.https://bit.ly/3GQPViA
