pruebas de función respiratoria, capacidad de difusión pulmonar, valores de referenciaResumen
Introducción. La prueba de difusión de monóxido de carbono (DLCO) constituye un adjunto importante en el arsenal de recursos para estudios de la función pulmonar. Objetivo. Comparar el desempeño de valores predichos de DLCO propuestos por cuatro ecuaciones. Material y Métodos. Mediante un estudio observacional se han analizado reportes cualitativamente aceptables de pruebas de DLCO de un laboratorio de función pulmonar en Asunción, Paraguay. Se estudió la adecuación a los predichos propuestos por Miller, Knudson, Paoletti y la Global Lung Initiative (GLI). Resultados. En ambos sexos, los parámetros de referencia de GLI se ajustaron mejor a los valores medidos en esta muestra. Conclusión. Es relevante disponer de un único lenguaje para los valores previstos cuando se miden variables de la función pulmonar de modo a homogeneizar aspectos claves del diagnóstico y manejo de ciertas enfermedades respiratorias.
