“…and anthropometric factors, hence it was necessary to have regional reference values for children. Thus, they studied PEFR in 1028 children aged 5 to 16 years by using Wright's mini peak flow meter and found that among different factors affecting PEFR, height correlates better with PEFR than weight and sex [21]. In 2013, Mishra et al also found that height correlates better with PEFR in males and weight correlates better with PEFR in females [22].…”

Context: Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is an effort-dependent parameter, emerging from the large airways within about 100-120 msec of the start of forced expiration. It measures the degree of obstruction in the airways. A child from an asthmatic family, having significantly low PEFR values than its height and age matched peers, can be considered under impending asthma category. Aims: The present study was proposed to detect early stages of airway obstruction in school going children. Settings and Design: Observational study conceived in the department of Physiology, AIIMS, Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Methods and Material: Hundred students of age group 7-15 years participated in the study. A family history for presence/absence of asthmatic symptoms was taken from all subjects. After anthropometric examination, PEFR values were recorded in standing position, using the Mini Wright Peak Flow meter after demonstrating them the right procedure. Three measurements were taken and the highest reading was recorded. Statistical Analysis Used: Fisher’s exact test was done to calculate the two tailed ‘P’ value, Odd’s ratio and relative risk. Results: Thirty-one Percent children with family history of airway obstruction showed PEFR values below 80% of the predicted value, while 5.74% who were not having any family history of asthma, also showed values below 80% of the predicted value. With Fisher’s exact test, the two tailed ‘P’ value was 0.0155 (significant). Conclusion: The results of this study support the vital role of PEFR related to changes in airflow, which eventually can result in early identification of children with airway obstruction.

“…Hal ini sesuai dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh [6] yang menunjukkan bahwa semakin tua usia seseorang maka nilai rata-rata PEF nya semakin rendah. Menurut [7] Nilai PEF sangat berhubungan dengan usia, jenis kelamin dan IMT. Karakteristik berdasarkan IMT pada kedua kelompok yang mempunyai prosentase tebesar adalah IMT 18,55-22,9 yaitu pada kelompok kontrol sebesar 33%.…”

Introduction: Biopsychological factors of anxiety in patients with ChronicObstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) will cause symptoms of increased respiration rate and prolonged expiration duration. Meanwhile, depression in COPD patients will increase the damage to lung functional capacity. This study aims to determine the difference in the impact of music therapy on increasing the value of peak expiratory flow rate, anxiety, and depression in the treatment group and the control group. Methods: Quasi-experimental one group pre-test-post test was conducted on 46 COPD patients in RSUD Prof. Dr. Soekandar Mojosari and RSUD Basoeni Mojokerto with simple random sampling technique. This research was conducted by providing music therapy intervention in the treatment group. The statistical test used was the Independent t-test to determine the difference in peak expiratory flow values in the two groups, while the Mann Whitney U test was used to determine the difference between anxiety and depression in the two groups. Results: There were differences in the intervention group who received music therapy with the control group with p value = 0.005 (p <0.05), and the difference between anxiety (Z = -3.813) and depression (Z = -3.868) values with an asymp sign value. = 0,000. Conclusion: There are differences in PEF values, anxiety and depression between the treatment group and the control group, where this therapy affects the PEF value, anxiety, and depression.
