Clinical Trials Focus Webinar

Pediatric Pulmonary Function Testing: “They’re not just little adults!”

Pulmonary function assessment in children is uniquely challenging, with testing considerations ranging from the practical to the emotional and cognitive. Yet it is an essential part of healthcare for children across a range of respiratory conditions. In this webinar, Carl Mottram will speak about different types of pediatric lung function tests including spirometry and respiratory muscle strength assessments. He will:

• Review the 2019 ERS-ATS Spirometry Standards and its impact on pediatric testing.
• Describe the unique testing approaches when working with children.
• Explain specific lung function tests and their relationship to clinical trials in childhood diseases.
