Attempts to analyze respiratory function of the laryngectomized patient with tests such as spirometry and plethysmography have been described in the literature, highlighting however substantial difficulties. Oscillometry, through the forced oscillation technique (FOT), measures the mechanical properties of the respiratory system minimizing the problems related to the patient's lack of compliance. This methodology has never been applied to these patients and therefore represents a new perspective in the analysis of respiratory function.
文献中描述了尝试使用肺活量测定法和体积描记法等测试来分析喉切除患者的呼吸功能，但强调了存在很大的困难。振荡法通过强迫振荡技术（FOT）测量呼吸系统的机械特性，最大限度地减少了与患者顺应性不足相关的问题。这种方法从未应用于这些患者，因此代表了分析呼吸功能的一个新视角。
