  • How Is Pulmonary Fibrosis Diagnosed?
    How Is Pulmonary Fibrosis Diagnosed? Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) may be difficult to diagnose as the symptoms of PF are similar to other lung diseases. There are many different types of PF. If your doctor suspects you might have PF, it is important to see a specialist to confirm your diagnosis. This will help ensure you are treated for the exact disease you have. Health History and Exam Your doctor will perform a physical exam and listen to your lungs. • If your doctor hears a crackling sound when listening to your lungs, that is a sign you might have PF. • It is also important for your doctor to gather detailed information about your health. ⚪ This includes any family history of lung disease, any hazardous materials you may have been exposed to in your lifetime and any diseases you’ve been treated for in the past. Imaging Tests Tests like chest X-rays and CT scans can help your doctor look at your lungs to see if there is any scarring. • Many people with PF actually have normal chest X-rays in the early stages of the disease. • A high-resolution computed tomography scan, or HRCT scan, is an X-ray that provides sharper and more detailed pictures than a standard chest X-ray and is an important component of diagnosing PF. • Your doctor may also perform an echocardiogram (ECHO). ⚪ This test uses sound waves to look at your heart function. ⚪ Doctors use this test to detect pulmonary hypertension, a condition that can accompany PF, or abnormal heart function. Lung Function Tests There are several ways to test how well your lungs are working.

  • Exercise-Induced Oxygen Desaturation During the 6-Minute Walk Test

Espiritu 3 1 Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Deaconess Health System, Evansville, IN 47747, USA 2 Indiana University School of Medicine, Evansville, IN 47710, USA 3 Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine, Saint Louis University School of Medicine, Saint Louis, MO 63103, USA; [email protected] (G.L.R.); [email protected] (J.R.D.E.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 15 November 2019; Accepted: 21 January 2020; Published: 31 January 2020 Abstract: The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) is not intended to document oxygen (O2) desaturation during exertion but is often used for this purpose. Because of this, it only has modest reproducibility in determining the need for ambulatory O2 therapy in patients with cardiopulmonary disease. The diagnostic and prognostic value of detecting exertional O2 desaturation is still unknown. The aims of this study were to estimate the prevalence of O2 desaturation during a 6MWT based on pulse oximetry measurements at the beginning and end of a 6MWT in a clinical population of patients with suspected cardiopulmonary disease and to determine whether the pulmonary function test (PFT) can predict exercise-induced desaturation during a 6MWT. This retrospective cohort study reviewed the results of the 6MWT and the PFT (i.e., spirometry, lung volumes, and diffusion capacity) of all patients who were evaluated for suspected cardiopulmonary disease at an academic medical center during a 5-year study period. The patients were categorized into three groups based on the change in O saturation by pulse oximetry (SpO ) from start to end of the 6MWT: (1) SpO decreased by 3%; 2 2 2 ≥ (2) SpO unchanged ( 2 D 0%); and (3) SpO increased by 1%.

Part I: Devices for monitoring and cardiac support. Europ J Underwater Hyperbaric Med 2005, 6(4): 115-120. All medical devices introduced into the hyperbaric chamber should be of an appropriate design and fit for use in the hyperbaric environment and they should be certified by the manufacturer for hyperbaric conditions. However, until now only several medical devices are CE marked for usage in hyperbaric chambers. Therefore users often need to perform themselves checking of the medical equipment needed for continuation of intensive care during hyperbaric treatment. To make this task easier, this paper presents review of reports of usage of medical devices under increased pressure. Part 1 is concerning devices for monitoring and cardiac support. Part 2 will describe mechanical ventilators and Part 3 will be devoted to infusion pumps and syringes. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Medical Equipment, CE Marking INTRODUCTION installing.
