Methodological difficulties have been encountered in modern plethysmographs when the warming and humidification of the inspired gas [2] are replaced by numerical algorithms to eliminate the thermo hygrometric artefact [1, 3, 4]. Measuring sRaw during panting [5] had been dismissed in preschool children based on the assumption that the ventilatory manoeuvre would be difficult to perform and standardise. The feasibility of such an assumption, however, has not been verified. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of measuring sRaw during panting in preschool children with asthma and compare the outcome with the tidal breathing method.Specific airway resistance may be measured in preschool children during routine lung function http://ow.ly/pvxr3034Bo8Waldemar Tomalak passed away while the study was progressing. The members of the working group miss a good friend and an esteemed collaborator. They address their sincere condolences to his family. ER -
