Lung clearance index and diffusion capacity for CO to detect early functional pulmonary impairment in children with rheumatic diseases
BACKGROUND: In adults with rheumatic diseases pulmonary complications are relevant contributors to morbidity and mortality. In these patients diffusion capacity for CO (DLCO) is an established method to detect early pulmonary impairment. Pilot studies using DLCO indicate that early functional pulmon...
