We performed 211 lung function measurements on 93 children in the first year after they had been admitted with acute bronchiolitis. During the convalescent phase of the illness, 77% of the infants were hyperinflated with a thoracic gas volume greater than 40 ml/kg and 3 months later 43% were hyperinflated. Twelve months after the initial illness, 17% still had lung function abnormalities and most of these children have had lower respiratory tract symptoms. For the group as a whole about 60% have had at least one episode of wheezing. Specific conductances were significantly lower in children from atopic families, indicating worse lung function, but the significance of this finding is unclear.
在93名因急性细支气管炎入院的儿童的第一年里,我们对他们进行了211次肺功能测量。在疾病的恢复期,77%的婴儿出现肺过度充气,胸腔气体容积大于40 ml/kg,3个月后,43%的婴儿仍有肺过度充气。初次患病12个月后,17%的儿童仍有肺功能异常,且这些儿童大多有下呼吸道症状。总体而言,约60%的儿童至少有过一次喘息发作。特应性家族的儿童比气道传导率显著更低,表明肺功能更差,但这一发现的意义尚不清楚。
