BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to assess within-breath respiratory system impedance by the forced oscillation technique (FOT) in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) and relate it to the underlying lung disease.
METHODS
Thirty-three children with CF (median [range] age 12.0 [6-17] years) underwent FOT at 8 Hz during tidal breathing, multiple breath nitrogen washout (LCI), spirometry (FEV1), body plethysmography (RV/TLC), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). FOT outcomes included: mean inspiratory, expiratory, and whole breath resistance (R8 , R8 , R8 ) and reactance (X8 , X8 , X8 ), and the differences between X8 and X8 (ΔX8). Morphological changes were evaluated by MRI using CF-specific morphological scores. Spearman correlation was performed to examine the correlation between FOT indices and other parameters.
RESULTS
FEV1 was negatively correlated with R8 (r = -0.52, P = 0.002) and ΔX8 (r = -0.55, P = 0.001), and positively correlated with and X8 (r = 0.56, P < 0.001). RV/TLC was positively correlated with R8 (r = 0.43, P = 0.013), and ΔX8 (r = 0.54, P = 0.001) and negatively correlated with X8 (r = -0.54, P = 0.001). We found poor correlation between FOT parameters and LCI and no correlation between FOT parameters and MRI scores.
CONCLUSION
In children with CF, changes in within-breath FOT parameters are consistent with peripheral obstruction and dynamic airway compression, while they are not associated with ventilation heterogeneities and morphological alterations.
