Comportamiento del flujo respiratorio pico en sujetos sanos mayores de 20 años.
Keywords:
flujo espiratorio pico, sujetos sanos, sexoAbstract
La investigación referente al estudio del comportamiento del flujo respiratorio pico (FEP) en personas sanas mayores de 20 años responde a la necesidad de conocer cuáles pueden ser los posibles valores de FEP en los diferentes grupos de edades que se tuvieron en cuenta. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica y se pudo verificar que en Cuba no existen suficientes valores referenciales que permitan realizar una adecuada valoración de la función pulmonar sin tener que acudir a las tablas referenciales de otros países. Partiendo del siguiente problema científico ¿Qué valores de FEP deben alcanzar los sujetos cubanos saludables de diferentes grupos de edades? Esta investigación estuvo encaminada a analizar y comparar estos valores, teniendo en cuenta: sexo, edad y talla.Palabras claves: flujo espiratorio pico, sujetos sanos, sexo, edad y rangos de talla.
Summary
This investigation concerning the study of the behavior of the peak expiratory flow in healthy people greater than 20 years of age comes in response to the necessity of understanding what were the probable peak expiratory flow (PEF) values within the different age groups which were being considered. We completed a literature search and verified that in Cuba there isn't sufficent reference values which would allow one to adequately evaluate the lung function without having to resort to the reference tables from other countries. Starting from this present scientific problem, what are PEF values that healthy Cuban subjects will reach within the different age groups? This stated investigation has been set to analyze and compare these values, taking into account: sex, age and height.
Key Words: peak expiratory flow, healthy subjects, sex, age, height rank.
