Peak expiratoy flow rate was especially useful parameter in the condition., management or prediction of children asthma and other obstructive pulmonary disease. The purpose of this study had been to obtain the predicted values for primary school children, compared peak expiratory flow rates using Miniwright peak flow meter with Wright peak flow meter and compared present study with previous study. We measured peak expiratory flow...

Wright’s peak flow meter, which was desigend as a simple and reliable device for measuring the peak expiratory flow rate(PEFR) is now used worldwide as a measurement of ventilatory capacity. PEFR is an especially useful parameter in the management of childhood asthma and other obstructive pulmonary diseases. It has been used in inhalation bronchial challenge tests to identify offending allergens such...

143 cases(106 males, 37 females) with asthmatic children (aged from 54/i2 to 144/i2 year old) were performed pulmonary function test before and after exercise to detect exerciseinduced asthma (El A). If peak expiratory flow rate(PEFR), checked with Wright’s peak flowmeter, decreased 15% cr more after exercise loading test (up and down stair method for 6 minutes), the result was considered to...
