[Pulmonary function tests and their clinical significances on outside of textbooks]

Pulmonary functions are classified two kinds of functions which are respiratory and non-respiratory. We explained new clinical significant results by looking at the usual respiratory pulmonary function tests and devices in this paper. We found two new indexes on uneveness of ventilation by analyzed compartments of forced expiratory curves(Tiffneu curves) and at improvement of CO single breathing method on diffusing capacity test. We found new index on bronchial anaphylaxis for bronchial asthma by time constant measured from forced expiratory curves, also. We found new index on ventilatory efficiency at developing the automatic respiratory resistance meter by the forced oscillation method of Du Bois, too.
