Abstract:
Objective To study the pulmonary artery shrink pressure(PASP) and pulmonary function in children with asthmatic diseases,and screen pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).To probe the correlation between PASP and pulmonary function.Methods Ninety children with asthmatic diseases from November 2014 to April 2015 at the Department of Respiratory,Women and Children's Hospital of Qingdao City were chosed as asthmatic group,and 90healthy children in the same period were selected as healthy control group.PASP and pulmonary function were detected by Doppler ultrasound and tidal flow-volume loop respectively within 24 hours of admission,the respite degrees were assessed by clinical and tidal flow-volume loop.SPSS 13.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis.Results PASP of the asthmatic group and the healthy control group was (3.24 ±0.66) kPa and (3.15 ±0.49) kPa,and the difference was statistically significant (F =7.50,P < 0.05).There were 10 cases of PAH in the asthmatic group,which had statistically difference with the healthy control group (x2 =10.59,P < 0.05).The tidal volume per kilogram,the ratio of time to peak tidal expiratory flow to total expiratory time,the ratio of volume to peak expiratory flow to total expiratory volume of the asthmatic group were (6.62 ± 1.63) mL/kg,(26.76 ± 6.48) % and (26.66 ± 6.54) %,and these three indicators of the healthy control group were (8.38 ± 0.80) mL/kg,(34.35 ± 2.84) % and (34.23 ±3.02) %,but that of the former group were less than that of the lower respectively (F =86.28,138.08,113.27,all P <0.05).PASP had negative correlation with the ratio of time to peak tidal expiratory fow to total expiratory time in the asthmatic group (r =-9.45,P < 0.05).PASP was increased with the aggravation of respite,and it had statistical difference between the mild or moderate asthmatic group [(3.43 ± 0.50) kPa,(3.66 ± 0.59) kPa] and the severe group [(4.20 ± 0.75) kPa] (x2 =24.81,12.55,all P < 0.05),and the cases of PAH had significant differences among these 3 groups (0,2,8 cases in mild,mode rate and severe group,respectively) (x2 =54.92,P < 0.05).Conclusions For children with more severe airway obstruction and wheezing,the risk of PASP and PAH will be higher.It is helpful to reduce right ventricular function damage for children with asthmatic diseases by measuring PASP and screening PAH in the early stage according to the clinical condition and lung function.
