These tests have been used to not only help in diagnosis, but also in the management and treatment of these children. Bronchoscopic, imaging and physiologic advances have improved clinical care of these children and have been used as outcome measures in research trials. Diagnostic Tests in Pediatric Pulmonology: Applications and Interpretation describes the various diagnostic modalities (especially the newer ones) that are available for the evaluation of pediatric respiratory disorders. It also provides an understanding of the advantages and limitations of each test so that the clinician may choose the most appropriate ones. An internationally renowned group of authors describe how best to interpret the key findings in a variety of tests as well as the possible pitfalls in incorrect interpretation. This volume focuses on the main diagnostic modalities used in the evaluation of pediatric patients with respiratory disorders and presents up-to-date information on the advantages and limitations of each test for a variety of conditions encountered in the practice of pediatric pulmonology. Clinical utility of these tests is also highlighted. This valuable resource is well suited to practicing clinicians, including pediatric pulmonologists, pediatricians and primary care practitioners, as well as trainees, respiratory therapists and clinical researchers. 410 0$aRespiratory Medicine,$x2197-7380 606 $aRespiratory organs$xDiseases 606 $aPediatrics 606 $aCritical care medicine 606 $aFamily medicine 606 $aPneumology 606 $aPediatrics 606 $aIntensive Care Medicine 606 $aGeneral Practice and Family Medicine 615 0$aRespiratory organs$xDiseases. 615 0$aPediatrics. 615 0$aCritical care medicine. 615 0$aFamily medicine. 615 14$aPneumology. 615 24$aPediatrics. 615 24$aIntensive Care Medicine. 615 24$aGeneral Practice and Family Medicine. 676 $a618.922 702 $aDavis$b Stephanie D$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aEber$b Ernst$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKoumbourlis$b Anastassios C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aAmerican Thoracic Society. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300208603321 996 $aDiagnostic Tests in Pediatric Pulmonology$91761312 997 $aUNINA
