  2. Pulmonary Function Tests Application Field 1-Diagnosis and treatment of Lung and Heart diseases 2-Preoperative evaluation 3-Evaluation of disability 4-Epidemiologic studies for the evaluation of industrial diseases 5-Simple determination of disease incidence in a given population

  3. -Alveols -Airways (Ventilation) -Capillary network (perfusion)

  4. -Ventilation -Distribution -Diffusion -Perfusion

  5. Pulmonary Function Tests A- Airway function 1.Simple spirometry Vital capacity(VC),expiratory reserve volume (ERV), inspiratory capacity (IC) 2.Forced vital capacity maneuver a-FVC,FEV1,FEF,PEF (1)Prebronchodilator and postbronchodilator (2)Prebronchochallenge and postbronchochallenge b-MEFV curves,Vmaxx (1)Prebronchodilator and Postbronchodilator (2)Prebronchochallenge and postbronchochallenge

  6. 3.Maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV) 4.Maximal inspiratory/expiratory pressures (MIP/MEP) 5.Airway resistance (Raw) and Compliance (C)

  8. Pulmonary Function Tests C- Diffusion capacity tests 1. Single-breath(breath holding) 2. Steady state 3. Other techniques

  9. Pulmonary Function Tests D-Blood gases and gas exchange tests 1.Blood gas analysis 2. Pulse oximetry 3. Capnography

  10. Pulmonary Function Tests E- Cardiopulmonary exercise tests 1. Simple noninvasive tests 2. Tests with exhaled gas analysis 3. Tests with blood gas analysis F- Metabolic measurements

  11. DIFFUSION This is an electrochemical event between gas and liquid. Occurs due to the partial pressure difference of the gases.

  12. DIFFUSION CAPACITY Amount of gas (mL) passed through the capillary membrane in a given time(1min) and in a given pressure difference (1mmHg) (mL/min/mmHg)

  13. DIFFUSION VELOCITY V=A.k.α.(P1-P2) h V=Diffusion velocity within a given time A=Diffusion surface area k=diffusion constant α=gas solubility P1-P2= Partial pressure difference of two environment that the diffusion takes place in. h=membrane thickness

  14. Factors that effect diffusion velocity -k (diffusion constant) -Α (solubility) -Viscosity of diffusion milieu Air diffusion velocity>water diffusion velocity *Tissue diffusion velocity = fluid diffusion velocity *Exclusion: Erythrocyte hb concentration viscosity diffusion velocity

  15. -CO is the standart gas that used in diffusion measurements -It has high Hgb. affinity -The only factor that limits CO diffusion is alveolocapillary membrane

  16. ERS (1993) TLCO:Transfer factor ATS (1995) DLCO:Diffusion capacity DLCO=mL/dak/mmHg TLCO=mmoL/dak/kPa DLCO/TLCO =3:1 DLCO x O.33=TLCO

  17. Diffusion ventilation ratio ERS TLCO/VA (=KCO)Transfer coefficient ATS DLCO/VA (mL/dak/mmHg)

  18. Methods used in diffusion measurement 1-Single-breath holding 2-Single expiration 3-Rebreathing 4-Steady state 5-Riley-Lilienthal 6-VA/Q 7-Single breath oxygen holding

  19. Resting DLCO:25 mLCO/min/mmHg %81-140 (predicted)=>normal %61-80 (predicted)=>mild decrease %41-60 (predicted)=>moderate <%40 (predected)=>significantly decreased

  20. Factors that effect DLCO measurement 1-Age,height,body surface area 2-Cigarette smoking 3-Hemoglobin level 4-Body position and exercise 5-Lung volumes 6-Inspiration and expiration maneuver

  21. Factors that effect DLCO measurement 7-Altitude 8-Oxygen concentration 9-Diurnal distribution 10-Menstrual cycle 11-Drinking alcohol 12-Sex and marital status

  22. Age, height, body surface area in children DLCO *Age in elderly DLCO * Body surface area, height, DLCO muscle structure *Weight has no effect

  23. Cigarette smoking Chronic cigarette smoking DLCO and KCO Acute smoking, Occupational CO exposure alveolar CO pressure Frequently repeated test *Decreased measurement due to smoking is maksimum 10%. *Must stop smoking at least 24 hours earlier *Modification must be done in frequent smokers

  24. Hemoglobin level Hb DLCO Hb DLCO -1 gram change in Hgb will change DLCO 7% -Measured DLCO value: Standardized due to Hgb:14.6g/dL -DLCO must be corrected due to changes in Hgb

  25. Body position and exercise -In dawnward position the difference is %5-30 -In upright position *Reason:During positional changes pulmonary blood volume -During exercise *In active persons DLCO and DLCO/VA

  26. Lung Volumes Volumes DLCO To detect actual diffusion loss ; DLCO/VA (KCO) must be used

  27. Inspiration and Expiration Maneuvers Valsalva maneuvers Muller effect intrathoracic pressure

  28. Altitude Altitude FIO2 DLCO *Correction may be necessary Oxygen concentration There is negative correlation between PAO2 and DLCO * No O2 supplemantationduring test

  29. Diurnal alteration DLCO reaches Peak level in the morning *During daytime progressively ~(1-2%) per hour Menstrual cycle and parity -~13% change during cycle (Changes are due to Hgb effect) -No significant change during parity

  30. Alcohol drinking 15-30ml 95% alcohol will decrease DLCO 15% after 90 minutes Sex and ethnic condition DLCO in men > women DLCO whites > blacks

  31. CLINICAL USAGE Decrease in DLCO ASSOCIATED WITH: 1-Obstructive lung diseases Emphysema Cystic fibrosis 2-Parenchymal diseases Interstitial pneumonia Extrinsic allergic alveolitis Viral pneumonia Chronic interstitial fibrosis (silicos) Bronchioalveolar lung cancer Drug reaction(bleomycin,nitrofurantoin) Alveolar proteinous and microlithyasis Lymphangioleiomyomatosis
