Our primary research interest is the development of new pulmonary function techniques appropriate to pediatric patients, utilizing specific equipment along with the personal computer to establish the safety of these methods and to determine the normal values, as well as the profiles of abnormality in various lung diseases. In addition, the response of the pulmonary system to therapies and the suitability of certain types of pulmonary abnormalities to new types of ventilation are also being evaluated.
