菲律宾大学医学院和菲律宾综合医院将首次计划测定菲律宾人的正常肺功能和制订肺功能的标准。研究时间预期1年。由Bochringer Ingelhein医学基金会出资并由Heidelberg大学专家们协助调查研究,希望能为全国防治肺部疾病方案的制订铺平道路。为期1年的研究目标是测试约500名男、女菲律宾人,年龄15~75岁,预期能提供肺功能的基础数据,用来制订检测最早期肺功能异常的正确方法。采用的新技术是使用体积描记法和流通—容量曲管法,这比早先使用的X线和肺量测定法要正确得多,因为
For the first time, Philippine University School of Medicine and the Philippine General Hospital will plan to measure normal lung function and standardize pulmonary function in Filipinos. The study time is expected to be 1 year. Funded by the Bochringer Ingelhein Medical Foundation and assisted by Heidelberg University experts in the investigation and study, hoping to pave the way for the development of a national plan to prevent and treat lung diseases. The one-year study aims to test about 500 men and women Filipinos aged 15-75 years old and is expected to provide basic data on lung function to develop the correct method for detecting the earliest abnormal lung function. The new technique used was plethysmography and flow-volume cupping, which was much more correct than the X-ray and spirometry previously used because
