No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Height measurement is unreliable when neuromuscular weakness or spinal deformity is present. The aim of this study was to accurately predict pulmonary function from a limb segment (ulna) measurement that is precise and reproducible. Equations are available in caucasian children but are not available in children of sub-saharian or caribbean ethnicity, which was the aim of the study. To this end, 350 black children referred for pulmonary function testing for asthma follow-up will be included.
