Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) have played a pivotal role in neonatal care. They have helped quantify the effects of therapeutic interventions, guide ...
Abstract: Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is a pulmonary function pattern characterized by a forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) to forced vital capacity ratio greater than 0.70, ...
